While I’ve Been Away, Part 1
I attended the Public Philosophy Network conference in Washington, D.C., this weekend. I attended sessions on social media ethics and the digital public. At the second session I learned of a graduate student in philosophy’s use of social media to engage in philosophy with a wider public. Her name is Cory Wong and she maintains a youTube channel called “My Phillifesophy.” Check her work out! It is one example of the way philosophy can participate in the social media and engage the public sphere, or what the conference participants call the “digital public.”
