Middle-future work

I have active research interests in the philosophy of art and the wider history of panpsychist-monist metaphysical systems, and nurture long-term intentions to connect my work in the history of the philosophy of mind to my interests in environmental philosophy and disability studies.

Other historical interests include Platonist arguments in Renaissance feminism and James, Russell, and Bergson.
