Random links with stuff about me

This Huffington Post interview from 2017 was lots of fun.

I gave a TEDx talk in Singapore in October 2013. The theme of the event was luck, so they had me talk about moral luck. I think people liked the example where a cannibal eats young Hitler and makes the world a better place.

On Valentine's Day 2013, the Washington Post featured my paper "Possible Girls", which describes how David Lewis' modal realism can help you have a romantic relationship with someone in another universe. Philosopher-journalist Dylan Matthews has written an updated version of the post at Vox.

I've discussed another paper of mine, "Divine Fine-Tuning vs. Electrons in Love", on the Australian Public Radio program Philosopher's Zone and a podcast called Thoughtology.

Here's a nice little interview NUS did with me when I won a faculty research award.

The 21st Century Monads, the pre-eminent philosophy rock band of our time, put me on the cover of a single called Achiever. It's about virtue epistemology.

Luke Muehlhauser interviewed me about my research in 2010 and asked lots of smart questions.

This is my current (eponymous) blog. You can check out some more recent guest blog posts of mine at other places -- about my job at NUS, the lack of enough philosophy journal space for all the good ideas, and the time I tried using color vision glasses to see green.

All human cultures bite the red part of a watermelon slice first, suggesting an innate Universal Gastronomy.
