Research

Ithaque 9: Revue de philosophie de l’Université de Montréal (2011)

 “The ‘Is’ in Animal-is-m” 

 Eric T. Olson argues for a position in personal identity called animalism. Olson's definition of ‘what we are’ is what the biological community currently defines as the ‘human animal’. This article deals with the notoriously slippery quality of the copula 'is'.  In my conclusion, I follow Olson’s surprising admission by suggesting that I too have no idea what we are. 

Work in Progess

"Meanings and Self-Knowledge from the Chomskyan Perspective"

The traditional questions of early analytic philosophy have related more to epistemology, and the grounding of an externalist semantics for the sciences. 

"Chomsky on I-languages, E-languages and P-language"

Supporting  Noam Chomsky’s views on the limits of the science of language, I offer 6 definitions based on the I-LANGUAGE and E-LANGUAGE distinction.

Other Writing

"The Visual Artist and the Problem of Space - Thoughts on Outdoor Painting" (2019)

 I discuss the problem of studio space for artists. This is an introduction to my 2019 exhibition titled: "Venise n'est pas en Italie". 

"Contemporary Canadian Artists and Why Museums Hate Us" (2017)

 Obviously, the title is meant to be provocative.
