  • Is philosophy different online? Should it be?
  • What is the philosophy of video games?
  • How is philosophy like a video game?

I'm a third-year PhD student in Philosophy at the University of Chicago. My interests are Kant and the philosophy of mind on the one hand, and ethics, psychoanalysis and existentialism on the other.
