Online Philosophy Conference

Anyone "go" to this conference? What do you think of the format?

The second annual Online Philosophy Conference (OPC2) is now in its second week. Please distribute this information (e.g., forward this email) as widely as possible to your colleagues and students, so that they can take advantage of this great opportunity to attend a high-quality philosophy conference for free. The conference website is here: http://experimentalphilosophy.typepad.com/2nd_annual_online_philoso/

There are two videotaped keynote addresses, one by Ernie Sosa and one by Jeff McMahan, and papers presented by (last week) Delia Graf, Shaun Nichols, Meredith Williams, and Juan Comesana, and (this week) Jonathan Dancy, Gillian Russell, Derk Pereboom, John Fischer, and Caspar Hare. Each paper includes commentary by one or two philosophers and then a comment thread open to the general audience, with presenters responding online.

We hope that you will participate in the conference and that you enjoy it!

Sincerely,
Thomas Nadelhoffer and Eddy Nahmias
OPC2 Organizers
