Can philosophy produce unique insight into art and aesthetic experience? Dave takes up this question, and a number of others, in conversation with Russell Duvernoy, Associate Professor of Philosophy at King’s University College in London, Ontario. Russell and Dave discuss stuffed childhood companions, the great lakes region, their respective journeys in academic philosophy, prehistoric cave art, the relationship between philosophy and visual art, aesthetic feeling, Kantian universalism, trans-species sensation, Zen Buddhism, the art of dying well, and more.

Russell’s recommendations:

Tren Brothers, “Blue Trees”

Shinmon Aoki, “Coffinman: Journal of a Buddhist Mortician”

David Lynch, “Lost Highway”
