Martin Buber Online (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Co-penned by Michael Zank and yours truly, the revised entry for Martin Buber is now up online at the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Both compressed and comprehensive, what I hope it adds to the picture of Buber in the secondary … Continue reading
Conference: Images of Perfection (Jerusalem)
Religion, aesthesis, and philosophy. I’m very excited to be part of this interdisciplinary conference, January 5-7 at the Hebrew University. Much of the brains behind it were Shai Secunda’s, whose work on Talmud is spinning out into aesthetic culture. Sessions … Continue reading
Invisible Cathedral (St John The Divine North Wall)
These pictures are already a couple of weeks old, but I’m posting them now in the interest of documentation. The construction of the new residential towers is well underway alongside the north wall of St. John the Divine on W.113th … Continue reading

Cybernetic Hanukkah Drone (IDF)
I know, I know, it’s appalling, but I’m going to kind of like the “cybernetic,” defined by Merriam-Webster free online as “the science of communication and control theory that is concerned especially with the comparative study of automatic control systems … Continue reading
As Concrete Person I Am in Space (Husserl contra Heidegger)
I read through Psychological and Transcendental Phenomenology and the Confrontation with Heidegger (1927-1931). Edited by Thomas Sheehan and Richard E. Palmer, the collection of writings pertain to the relationship between Husserl and Heidegger. They include 4 drafts to Husserl’s entry … Continue reading
Wars of the Jews at Theater J
Please weigh in Washington D.C. people. What’s going on at Theater J? So far, most of what I have seen about the firing of Ari Roth are his robust defenders defending the right of a Jewish theater company to stage … Continue reading
