This was fun and super interesting. Thanks to @ispsm.bsky.social for organising. Contrasting these two perspectives seems very fruitful. I strongly recommend @kathrynnave.eurosky.social’s book - an amazing read. (And open access, as is mine)

End of a busy week. I just presented at ISPSM. I argued that plants realize beliefs and desires when they are coarsely defined. I also presented at the American Society for Aesthetics. I explained why painful art can still induce hedonic states. @ispsm.bsky.social @amersocaesthetics.bsky.social

Highlight from our symposium on laws of appearance today. Lots of participants and hectic discussion on my proposed laws of appearance! Photo credit to @remisramos.bsky.social #ispsm25

brb updating my cv 👀 The ISPSM was a lot of fun and even more fun to be able to submit a meme that matched my talk!

Oh, and for those who enjoy spitting their coffee out at memes, we have an absolute winner from @okaydaniellle.bsky.social 10/10, Danielle!

And just like that, ISPSM 2025 is done! Thank you to all our wonderful speakers and participants for making it the event it was. We are touched to be a part of all of your philosophical journeys, and will continue to strive forward in our efforts to make it is truly global community ❤️

We’re about to start the third and final day of ISPSM with our keynote from Mpho Tshivhase, who is giving a talk titled “No ghost in the machine: resisting digital appropriations of African ancestors” ⭐️
