This site is devoted to my academic work in philosophy.
My main area of research is the philosophy of art and music. I dispute the idea that the arts are self-contained. Traditional questions about art and music – regarding their ontological status, value, and possible contribution to knowledge – must be addressed within the broader context of their social role and functions.
Principled Dispute Resolution and Consulting is a site established for my work as a mediator and business ethics consultant.
