#1 here Time for the second diary entry! Let me start by advertising my talk at the department next Monday, 13th February. It’s at Caldwell Hall, room 213, 1pm; the topic is ‘The Epistemology of Essence’, and you can read about it (as well as download a draft) here. There’s a big basketball game in [...]
My Contemporary Aristotelian Metaphysics volume is just about to be published by Cambridge University Press, and the cover art has now been released! It looks pretty good to me, although I may be biased since the cover photo is one of my own. I took it in 2008 on a hill walk in the Cheviots [...]
UPDATE: I’ve added some photos from Seattle, the Cascades, Vancouver, and Portland to my gallery. I’ve been in the Pacific Northwest for a week now, with Seattle as my base. So far it has been mostly a tourist trip, but I should start by noting that I’ll be giving a talk ‘Grounding Modality’ at Reed [...]
I’ve been meaning to write a report about my hiking/camping trip to the Pyrenees with Pekka, which took place in mid-July. I’ve only now had the chance to go through all my photos (link to my gallery with all the shots). Not that I took that many photos — in fact, my camera let me [...]
My report on this long-awaited go at fell running in Scotland in the beginning of July is a bit overdue, but I’ve been quite busy with my travels and work. You can expect some more updates in the coming weeks though, if everything goes well… The plan for this trip emerged maybe a year ago, [...]
Previous installments: #1, #2, #3, #4, and #5. This the final installment of my NYU Diaries, since I’m returning to Finland. Not that much to report this time. The summer seems to have finally arrived in NYC, just as I’m leaving. However I’m under the impression that NYC can get disgustingly hot in the summer, [...]
Previous installments: #1, #2, #3, and #4. This installment is long overdue, but last three weeks have been extremely busy. Now that I have only just over a week of my visit left things are calming down a bit, as I’ve met the deadlines that were pressing (index for my volume, my talks at NYU [...]
Previous installments: #1, #2, and #3. Busy, busy, busy. I’ve got just over a month of my visit left, but I won’t be having much of a breather for the next couple of weeks at least. As you’ll know if you read my previous post, I was in Boise, Idaho last weekend for a conference. [...]
If you missed the first installment of my NYU Diaries, it’s here. It’s coming to three weeks since I arrived, and I’ve barely had a breather. It’s not because I go out on a couple of nights each week, try to write several papers at the same time, attend seminars, or run record weekly mileage. [...]
2010 was a rather stressful year for me with some insecurity about the future and most of all a feeling that I ought to move on after spending five years at Durham. This was especially prompted by a six week visit to Geneva in the end of 2009. Well, in the end I prevailed and [...]
