Profile
I am a philosopher, cultural theorist, and curator of visual and sonic art. An interest in contemporary art led me to 19th through 21st century European philosophy, which I have taught and written about for many years along with wider topics in metaphysics, epistemology, and social and political philosophy. Since the mid-1990s, I have written on music and art for magazines such as Artforum and The Wire, and have curated exhibitions at The Kitchen, Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, The Artists Institute, and other venues. I am editor-at-large at Cabinet magazine and received an Arts Writers Grant from Creative Capital/Warhol Foundation. I teach courses on power, posthumanism, audio culture, sound art, photography, relativism and realism, philosophy as a way of life, and many other topics in contemporary thought and culture.
