Thomas C. Brownell Professor of Philosophy, emeritus
Trinity College · Hartford, CT

This website reflects the arc of a life in several dimensions: professional life; making stuff; adventures — these interpenetrate throughout.

Philosopher, neuroscientist, novelist, composer, light artist, and Shakespearean – that's me (?). Hover over each topic for a quick description, or click to dive in. Or, there's my standard CV.

How this site works

Just hover over a word on the Scrabble board and you'll see a tag for the related content. Click and jump to the details. The words are topics; the squares where words cross are intersections — places where two territories overlap and something unexpected happens.

There's also a standard CV, linked from the header on every page — the conventional record of the work, if that's what you're after.

Three dimensions

Professional life

Making stuff

Novels, installations, light sculptures, brain-music, Shakespalooza, digital montages — the work that doesn't fit a CV category.

Light Art Music × Bard

🌍

Adventures

Helsinki, Rotterdam, Plymouth, Budapest, Madrid, Brooklyn — wherever the work led, and a few places it didn't.
