Research interests relevant to game philosophy | I have two research interests relevant to game philosophy: First, I’m interested in the intrinsic relationship between ethics and aesthetics, and think that certain video games show that artefacts can be artistically meritorious insofar as they manifest immoral attitudes. Second, I focus on the semantics of fictive discourse and the ontology of fictional objects, any theory of which should have something to say about computer game discourse/the characters of virtual worlds. |
Publications and presentations relevant to game philosophy | “Animal Crossing as an Interactive Narrative Machine”. Presentation at the 8th International Philosophy of Computer Games Conference, Istanbul. “Developing Fictionally Immoral Attitudes”.
