What I'm up to

September 01, 2022

The Podcast

In June I released an episode on the universal and particular, with Wim Wenders’ Wings of Desire as a centrepiece, which is still worth a listen if you missed it.

I’ve also been hosting Twitter spaces. I posted the first conversation I had in January about teleology and abstraction on the podcast.

Patreon

I’ve started a Patreon where you can support my work if you so choose. This is the first place I’ve announced it.

I’m using Patreon as the place where I post a stream of absolutely everything I’m up to. None of it is intended to be paywalled, though sometimes I accidentally paywall stuff since that’s the default. If there’s anything you can’t access, you can always DM me on Twitter.

My newsletter is also free, but you can also opt to pay if you wish to support what I’m doing. I’m planning to post there more frequently.

Hosting conversations

I have hosted a series of fun conversations on Twitter Spaces. I’m intending to release these on the podcast over the coming weeks.

Note that Twitter doesn’t seem to store these forever, but here are the links anyway:

If you’d like to speak with me on one of these spaces, which are casual but recorded, please sign up for a future Sunday conversation on any topic.

Video

I’ve run several video experiments, thinking in public. These are essentially drafts for video lectures I’m planning. I’m doing one each Tuesday at 10am London time.

You can see what I’ve recorded in the past, or be notified of upcoming livestreams, by subscribing to my YouTube channel. I also stream to my Twitch channel if you prefer watching them live (you can also ask questions).

Here are a few highlights:

IRL

If you’re in London, we’d also love to have you at our Through a Glass Darkly discussions. Or join my book club!
