APSE talk by Stella Villarmea on 25 January 2024 at 3pm

by Anne Sophie Meincke

Dear colleagues, I'm pleased to invite you to our next APSE talk on Thursday, 25th January 2024, 3:00 (s.t.) - 5:00 p.m. in HS 3A, 3. OG, NIG. The speaker is Professor Stella Villarmea (Complutense University of Madrid & University of Oxford). She will be speaking about: "Birthing: Vindicating a Visceral Body Philosophically" Abstract: Birth matters matter — and they matter philosophically too. I work on philosophy of birth, that is, I use the tools of philosophy to analyse representations and practices around childbirth. My thesis is that to reorient philosophical conversation toward birth and, specifically, to the origin of our lives in the female body, produces a radical shift. Once we take that turn, many of the tales about our origin truly become 'old-tales'. Are we already imagining a new genealogy, a new logos for genos? Can we philosophically (and medically/obstetrically) represent and vindicate this new genea-logy? The talk will be followed by a dinner. Please let me know if you would like to join. I'm looking forward to seeing you. Best wishes, Anne Sophie -- "The Metaphysics of Development and Evolution: From Thing Ontology to Process Ontology", Human Development, online first: https://doi.org/10.1159/000534421 "Emergent Properties", in: The Routledge Handbook of Properties, ed. by A.-S.

Khôra Colloquim: "CLINAMEN - Bewegtbilder des Denkens", 25.01.2024, 18:30, HS 3f

by Sebastian Krach

Sehr geehrte Kolleg:innen, ich möchte Sie im Namen von Khôra herzlich zum nächsten Colloquium einladen. Termin: 25.01.2024, 18:30 - 20:00, HS 3F, Neues Institutsgebäude Thema: "CLINAMEN - Bewegtbilder des Denkens" – An der Grenze zwischen Philosophie und Kunst mit einer Performance von Noemi Call und Philipp Quell Beschreibung: Sarah Kofman wirft in ihrer Beschreibung der Paarung von Kunst und Philosophie eine Frage auf: „Aus der Kunst eine philosophische Frage machen, einen Diskurs über die Kunst führen, der sich diesem System von Oppositionen beugt, heißt das nicht die Herrschaftsgeste der Philosophie zu wiederholen, die immer die Kunst dem Logos und der Wahrheit unterordnen wollte?"(Kofman 1990, "Die Melancholie der Kunst" in: Postmoderne und Dekonstruktion, 224) Die Beziehung zwischen Philosophie und Kunst scheint in einer Sackgasse zu sein. Entweder die Philosophie spricht "über" die Kunst und will erklären, was sie "eigentlich" bedeutet, oder sie muss sie unberührt und für sich selbst sprechen lassen. Doch gibt es neben dieser erstarrten Opposition alternative Wege, Holzwege oder Schleichwege vielleicht, die Kunst und Philosophie in einen "Dialog auf Augenhöhe" bringen? In einem Dialog mit dem Videokünstler H. Arcier, der in seinem Werk die atomistische Kosmologie zum Anstoß nimmt, um eine ganz neue Perspektive auf den Tanz zu eröffnen, wollen wir mit einem performativ-philosophischen Text antworten, indem wir Figuren und Impressionen des Videokunstwerks sprachlich verarbeiten und weiterspinnen. Den Link zu dem Video findet ihr hier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOXJl6zD9gw Weitere Informationen sowie eine Mailingliste finden Sie auf unserer Homepage. https://www.khora.philo.at/ Danach ist im Café Gagarin reserviert. Wir freuen uns auf euer Kommen! Mit lieben Grüßen im Namen von Khôra Sebastian Krach

Dec 14 Guest lecture by Cecile Fabre: "Humankind’s Common Cultural Heritage, Justice and Territorial Rights"

by Sophie Kroiss

Dear colleagues, on behalf of Univ.-Prof. Angela Kallhoff and the Department of Philosophy, I cordially invite you to a guest lecture titled *"Humankind’s Common Cultural Heritage, Justice and Territorial Rights"* by *Cecile Fabre *(All Souls College, Oxford). Thu Dec. 14th, 2023, 6:30 p.m. in HS 3D (NIG) For questions, contact sophie.kroiss(a)univie.ac.at Abstract: The thought that there are cultural landmarks which have universal value is a familiar one. It is at the heart of UNESCO's and the World Heritage's mission, and is affirmed in a number of international declarations, not least the Convention Concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage. For all its appeal, UNESCO's ideals raise some deep concerns. In particular, it is not easy to articulate an account of universal value; and it is not easy to show why we are under moral obligations in respect of that heritage. Nevertheless, I attempt to defend those ideals. I seek to show that the protection of humankind's heritage, qua humankind's, not only is a moral imperative: more strongly put, it is a duty of justice. I then address one of the most important objections to it - namely that it undermines states’ and their citizenries’ legitimate interest in deciding what to do with landmarks which are located on their territory. /Cecile Fabre a political philosopher, and currently Senior Research Fellow at All Souls College, Oxford. She is also Professor of Political Philosophy at the University of Oxford, and affiliated with the Faculty of Philosophy, the Department of Politics and International Relations, and Nuffield College, Oxford. Her research interests are in theories of distributive justice; the philosophy of democracy; just war theory; the ethics of foreign policy, with particular focus on the ethics of economic statecraft and the ethics of espionage. She most recently published Spying Through a Glass Darkly: The Ethics of Espionage and Counter-Intelligence (Oxford University Press 2022); Economic Statecraft: Human Rights, Sanctions, and Conditionality (Harvard University Press, 2018), preceded by (among others) Cosmopolitan Peace (Oxford University Press, 2016), The Morality of Defensive War, co-edited with Seth Lazar (Oxford University Press, 2014), Cosmopolitan War (Oxford University Press, 2012)./ https://kalender.univie.ac.at/einzelansicht/?no_cache=1&tx_univieevents_pi1… / /

[angewandte kunstgeschichte] Lecture and Exhibition with Kristian Vstrup Madsen

by Institut für Philosophie

Kristian Vstrup Madsen "Good doesn't cut it: quality and quantity in the reception history of Vermeer“ a Lecture on Monday, January 22nd, 7 pm at University of Applied Arts, Vordere Zollamtsstr. 7, 5th Floor, SE 20 In the mid 18th century, the King of Saxony bought a Vermeer because he was told it was a Rembrandt, and he believed it. A few decades on, the King of France declined to buy a Vermeer because it was not a Rembrandt. Vermeer has always been good – anyone could see that. But good doesn’t cut it when you’re selling to kings, oil barons, financiers, and rappers. His example tells us that, across art history, from Old Masters to post-postmodernists, quality is not a given, but subject to trend and capital. In this lecture, Kristian Vistrup Madsen traces how value was attributed to Vermeer's paintings, and how value, over time, made us see those paintings differently. /*Kristian Vistrup Madsen* is a writer and art critic based in Berlin. He has contributed to magazines such as Artforum, Harpers, The White Review, and Kunstkritikk. Doing Time: Essays on Using People was published by Floating Opera Press in 2021./ and "The (Great) Kristian Vistrup Madsen Show. Contemporaneity in Postmedieval Times" an exhibition opening on Tuesday, January 23rd, 6 pm at University of Applied Arts, Oskar Kokoschka Platz 2, Painting Department, Studios 610 and 621 a cooperation with the departments Philosophy and Painting, in the context of Kathrin Heinrich’s seminar „Art Criticism“. https:__www.angewandtekunstgeschichte.net_uploads_TKVMS_s.jpg Univ.-Prof. Dr. Eva Kernbauer Universität für angewandte Kunst Wien | University of Applied Arts Vienna Abteilung Kunstgeschichte | Art History A-1010 Wien| Vienna, Oskar Kokoschka-Platz 2 Besuchsadresse: A-1030 Wien, Vordere Zollamtsstraße 7, Zimmer 444 fon +43-1-71133-2760 fax +43-1-71133-2769 eva.kernbauer(a)uni-ak.ac.at <mailto:sabine.eder@uni-ak.ac.at> www.angewandtekunstgeschichte.net <http://www.angewandtekunstgeschichte.net/>

Invitation Vera Bühlmann (TU Wien): The Out-With and the With-Out, Or How to Think of the Digital in Relation to a Philological "Ex Tempore" - January 26th, 6pm, HS 2i (and online)

by Ralf Gisinger

Dear Colleagues, The Reading Circle of the Research Group "Poststructuralism, Gender Theory, Psychoanalysis" at the University of Vienna cordially invites you to the next public event: Vera Bühlmann (TU Vienna): The Out-With and the With-Out, Or How to Think of the Digital in Relation to a Philological "Ex Tempore" Friday, January 26th 2024, 6-8pm, Hörsaal 2i (NIG), Department of Philosophy (and online), Lecture and Discussion Vera Bühlmann's recent book _The Digital, a Continent? Nature and Poetics_ (Birkhäuser, 2024) presents a natural philosophy way of thinking that draws from the optics and the sensibilities of New Materialisms: Mathematical, poetical and rhetorical ideations help to call, count, measure and proportion impersonal "thought" that "happens" much like the weather does. It foregrounds thereby an agency as we address it when we say "it rains", or "there is wind", or "a storm is coming". The chapters of this book show how for the cunning reason of a Mechanic in the old, artistic sense of the word (literally "one who thinks and acts resourcefully") there is neither a necessity for devotion nor humiliation involved when acknowledging that things _in the first and last instance_ remain cryptic (dependent upon ciphering). For what the mechanic's craft excels in and reveals objectively is how to keep ideas and things moving and morphing, how to make them and render them referential and graspable beyond a strict nature-culture distinction. The knowledge the mechanic aims at conveying is how to domesticate the meanwhile: How can we develop ideations of energy, form and intellect in play together rationally and objectively, and yet in an indefinite variety of ways and across many scales? Such sites of play would have to be articulated and tuned by an architectonics for which world and earth are neither synonymous nor subjected one to the other. The chapters in this book explore the idea that we can better maintain active relations to ourselves and to the currently emerging paradigm(s) of planetary cultures, politics and economies when we study how there is coding at work not only in the human domain but also in the natural world too. But how to think of such an idea of "coding", how to consider the relations between method, poetics, technics and the arts? The talk will explore resonances to Werner Hamacher's _95 Theses on Philology _(2009)_ _as well as his notion of "Ex Tempore" in _On the Brink. Language, Time, History and Politics_ (2020). Vera Bühlmann is Professor for Architecture Theory at Vienna University of Technology TU, and director of the research group Architecture Theory and Philosophy of Technics ATTP. Registration for online participation or to get the referenced texts: ralf.gisinger(a)univie.ac.at Since 2021 the Reading Circle PS-GT-PA includes public events additionally to the monthly readings. Lectures and workshops have been held with Brian Massumi, Erin Manning, Avital Ronell, Didier Debaise, Shomo Choudhury and Alexis Shotwell.

Invitation: Trans*Formations 16.1. – Talk by Luce deLire and Film by Isa Schieche

by Flora Löffelmann

Dear all, this is a reminder for the first Trans*Formations event! Trans Philosophy is one of the most exciting 'new' strands of philosophical theorizing, and we are happy to host the first event on the topic at the University of Vienna. First, Luce deLire (formerly John Hopkins University, https://getaphilosopher.com/) will give the talk "Can The Transsexual Speak?". Abstract: On September 14, 2021 Ella Nik Bayan set herself on fire at Berlin Alexanderplatz, Germany. She died shortly after. On February 2, 2024, the German government will most probably pass a new 'Self-Determination Law' (Selbstbestimmungsgesetz) which promises to simplify transition related changes of name and gender identity markers in legal documents. In my talk, I use these two examples to present what I call 'the transsexual contract': Trans and non-binary self determination is (often violently) incapacitated by means of concrete legal, political and epistemological arrangements. This is the case even in left wing art, activism and allegedly 'progressive' legislation. Allegedly, the transsexual contract protects cis people from trans propaganda and from their own confusion. Yet in reality, its main goal is the production and control of cis people. One is not born cis, but becomes cis. With a post-colonial lens, I suggest queer hospitality as a concrete practice to unlearn this toxic logic of protection. After a Q&A with Luce deLire, we will watch the film "Die Räuberinnen" (2023) by Austrian filmmaker Isa Schieche, who recently also received the Goldene Medusa Award for this film.(More Info: https://isaschieche.com/Die-Rauberinnen) About the film: Three trans women meet in a country house to plan a robbery. The trick of the heist is that, in order to create a false trail, they disguise themselves as men. While they share everyday life as a well-established team and lovers, they practice speaking in a deep voice, walking manly and behaving in a masculine manner. In this process, they reach their emotional and physical limits and repeatedly fail to imitate male connoted behavior."Die Räuberinnen" is a sociological analysis of male- and female-attributed behavior and traits, shaking up binary role models in a swirl of radicalism and activism. The talk will be in English, the film is in German with English subtitles. There will be popcorn, snacks and drinks to round off the event! When? Tuesday, January 16th, 2024 from 15:00 to 16:30 Where? HS 3F, Institute of Philosophy, NIG (Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna) Looking forward to seeing you on January 16th! Any sharing of the event is highly appreciated, and the poster for the event is attached to this email. Please do not hesitate to contact me concerning any accessibility needs or questions! With warm greetings, Flora Löffelmann -- Flora Löffelmann, MA MA University assistant & doctoral candidate Department of Philosophy at University of Vienna Pronouns: they/them (for more info see: https://www.mypronouns.org/what-and-why/) Happy about a gender neutral "hello"!

Reminder: Trans*Formations 16.1.2024

by Flora Löffelmann

Dear all, I would like to cordially invite you to the first Trans*Formations event! Trans Philosophy is one of the most exciting 'new' strands of philosophical theorizing, and we are happy to host the first event on the topic at the University of Vienna, to be followed by more later this year. First, Luce deLire (formerly John Hopkins University, https://getaphilosopher.com/) will give the talk "Can The Transsexual Speak?". Abstract: On September 14, 2021 Ella Nik Bayan set herself on fire at Berlin Alexanderplatz, Germany. She died shortly after. On February 2, 2024, the German government will most probably pass a new 'Self-Determination Law' (Selbstbestimmungsgesetz) which promises to simplify transition related changes of name and gender identity markers in legal documents. In my talk, I use these two examples to present what I call 'the transsexual contract': Trans and non-binary self determination is (often violently) incapacitated by means of concrete legal, political and epistemological arrangements. This is the case even in left wing art, activism and allegedly 'progressive' legislation. Allegedly, the transsexual contract protects cis people from trans propaganda and from their own confusion. Yet in reality, its main goal is the production and control of cis people. One is not born cis, but becomes cis. With a post-colonial lens, I suggest queer hospitality as a concrete practice to unlearn this toxic logic of protection. After a Q&A with Luce deLire, we will watch the film "Die Räuberinnen" (2023) by Austrian filmmaker Isa Schieche, who recently also received the Goldene Medusa Award for this film.(More Info: https://isaschieche.com/Die-Rauberinnen) The talk will be in English, the film is in German with English subtitles. There will be popcorn, snacks and drinks to round off the event! When? Tuesday, January 16th, 2024 from 15:00 to 16:30 Where? HS 3F, Institute of Philosophy, NIG (Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Vienna) Looking forward to seeing you on January 16th! Any sharing of the event is highly appreciated, and the poster for the event is attached to this email. Please do not hesitate to contact me concerning any accessibility needs or questions! With warm greetings, Flora Löffelmann -- Flora Löffelmann, MA MA University assistant & doctoral candidate Department of Philosophy at University of Vienna Pronouns: they/them (for more info see: https://www.mypronouns.org/what-and-why/) Happy about a gender neutral "hello"!

by Jakob Rendl

CfP: ECPR General Conference 2024 | University College Dublin | Section of the Standing Group on Kantian Political Thought The ECPR Standing Group on Kantian Political Thought is delighted to announce that its application for a section on "Kant, Science and Politics" as part of the ECPR General Conference (University College Dublin, 12-15 August 2024) has been successful, and 6 panels have been allocated to the Section. As a result, paper and panel proposals for the section "Kant, Science and Politics" are now invited. Paper proposals may either be submitted as part of one of the five suggested panels below or as part of a new panel on a topic related to that of the section. The aim of this section is to examine Kant's view of a practical metaphysics (both in ethics and politico-juridical philosophy) that is on the secure path of science; the following are suggested panel topics: * The Relation Between Theoretical and Practical Cognitions * Kant's Conception of Moral Theory as a Philosophical Science * The "Land of Truth" - The Political Language of Scientific Truth * Autonomy and the Moral Law * Science and Racism - Kant's Anthropology and the Need for Reorientation of Kant Scholarship You may find further details on the section here: Kant, Science and Politics (ecpr.eu) [1]. If you are interested, please send an Expression of Interest with a short outline of your paper (max. 500 words) or, if applicable, of the proposed panel to jakob.rendl(a)univie.ac.at and s.baiasu(a)keele.ac.uk by 11 January 2024, or contact us for more information.

Zoom Workshop: Affective and Mnemonic Injustice (January 30th and 31st, 2024)

by Sabine Koch

Zoom Workshop: Affective and Mnemonic Injustice (January 30th and 31st, 2024) In recent years, there’s been a growing interest in identifying the different ways in which a person or a group of persons can be a victim of injustice, as well as the psychological/subjective effects that the various types of injustice can have on people’s status as epistemic, affective and mnemonic agents, among others. Following this trend, the purpose of this workshop will be to investigate two distinctive types of injustice as well as their possible conceptual and empirical links: affective and mnemonic injustice. The first seeks to capture kinds of injustices committed against individuals specifically in their capacities as affective agents, for example, by systematically provoking distressing experiences such as fear, sadness or despair, by manipulating others’ emotions in a way that might prove detrimental to their well-being, or by denying others opportunities to express and regulate their emotional responses. The latter seeks to capture how stereotypes can shape what we remember, so that accounts of fairness and social justice have to be taken into consideration in debates about different kinds of mnemonic capacities. These two kinds of injustices have obvious interconnections, as can be seen, for example, in the way that provoking a traumatic experience upon another person is a kind of injustice that has both an affective and a mnemonic component. We hope that the talks in this workshop, and the discussion that will follow them, will bring out these (and other) philosophical interconnections. As a result, we hope to show that the philosophy of memory and the philosophy of emotion are deeply political subject matters, something that is often overlooked within these disciplines. Far from being a marginal topic, the politics of memory and affectivity is at the heart of questions as to how memory and affective systems function, their purpose, and their role within our social spheres more broadly. We would thus like to invite everyone to join us in discussing and making these topics more visible in the philosophical community. Programme: January 30th 2024 2:30 PM (CET): Marina Trakas (Conicet): "Mnemonic Humility: An Antidote to Mnemonic Injustice?" 3:3O PM (CET): Francisco Gallegos (Wake Forest): "Authenticity, Zozobra and Affective Injustice" January 31st 2024 2:30 PM (CET): Joel Krueger (Exeter): "An Ecological Approach to Affective Injustice" 3:30 PM (CET): Katherine Puddifoot (Durham): "Mnemonic Injustice and the Social Stance on Memory" Registration (mandatory): <http://goog_82397027> https://forms.gle/k6EoLEjii7hd9RmN7 Abstracts: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eP9bQfSmj9BWnml58N7Zv-n0TM9yN72p/view?usp=… PhilEvents: https://philevents.org/event/show/117621 Organisers: Nathália de Ávila (Universität Wien - IVC Fellow) Felipe Carvalho (UFLA) Em Walsh (Johns Hopkins) Questions: Please, write to nferrei1(a)smail.uni-koeln.de<mailto:nferrei1@smail.uni-koeln.de>

Einladung zur Graduiertenkonferenz: "Den Finger in die Wunde legen - Kritische Phänomenologien der Gewalt" am 11./12. Januar

by Charlotte Bomert

Liebe Kolleg:innen, gerne möchten wir Sie auf die Graduiertenkonferenz "DEN FINGER IN DIE WUNDE LEGEN - Kritische Phänomenologien der Gewalt", die am 11./12. Januar an unserem Institut stattfinden wird, aufmerksam machen. Die Konferenz setzt es sich zur Aufgabe, zum einen die aktuell v. a. im angloamerikanischen Raum sich intensivierende Debatte um die sog. "critical phenomenology" mit Blick auf Phänomene der Gewalt zu erproben. Darüber hinaus soll sie einen Ort des Austausches für junge phänomenologische (Gewalt)Forschung am Institut für Philosophie in Wien eröffnen. Anhand konkreter Phänomenanalysen soll gezeigt werden, wie sich eine für soziale, politische und globale Problemlagen sensibilisierende Phänomenologie mit deskriptiven, genealogischen und kritischen Theorieelemente konstruktiv verbinden lässt und so neue Einsichten für die Gewaltforschung zu eröffnen vermag. Neben den Beiträgen von fortgeschrittenen Master- und Doktoratsstudierenden unseres Instituts, die zu Phänomenen der Gewalt forschen, freuen wir uns zudem auf folgende drei Keynotes: (1) Claudia Brunner, Politikwissenschaftlerin und assoz. Professorin am Zentrum für Friedensforschung und Friedensbildung, Institut für Erziehungswissenschaft und Bildungsforschung der Universität Klagenfurt mit dem Vortrag "Strukturell, symbolisch, normativ - und epistemisch: Gewalt weiter denken in der kolonialen Moderne" (2) Pascal Delhom, Senior Lecturer am Philosophischen Seminar der Europa-Universität Flensburg, mit dem Vortrag "Erlittene Gewalt. Die Frage des Zugangs zu den Phänomenen" (3) Gerald Posselt, Senior Lecturer an unserem Institut, mit dem Vortrag: "Zeichensprache der Verletzungen: Schnittstellen sprachlicher und körperlicher Gewalt" Ausführlichere Abstracts zu den Keynotes, den anderen Vorträgen, den genauen Zeitablauf und Hintergrundlektüren zu den Keynotes finden Sie hier: https://phaenomenologie.univie.ac.at/forschung/graduiertenkonferenz-den-fin… Mit den besten Grüßen und Wünschen für das neue Jahr, Charlotte Bomert, Georg Harfensteller & Michael Staudigl

CfA: Biasing Mechanisms in Scientific Research

by Institut für Philosophie

> > CfA: Biasing Mechanisms in Scientific Research > > Leibniz University Hannover > > May 31^st – June 1^st , 2024 > > In the philosophy of science, recent work has led to an emerging > consensus that science is not value-free, and that values, including > social and political values, play different roles in the research > process. It has also become clear that, values can have both a > positive and a negative impact on science. Sometimes, values can > contribute to science’s epistemic and social goals, while other times, > they can have a detrimental effect on science’s epistemic goals, i.e., > biasing research results. With this framework in mind, the main goal > of this workshop is to clarify the negative roles of values in > scientific research, and in particular their sometimes-biasing > effects. While it is well-known that biases impact scientific research > results, we have a less clear understanding of the different types of > biases, their mechanisms, and their scope. Current invited speakers > include: > > * Heather Douglas (Michigan State University) > * Jacob Stegenga (University of Cambridge) > * David Teira (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia) > * Anke Büter (Aarhus University) > > We welcome submissions that seek to advance our understanding of > negative biases and their effects in scientific research. Questions > that might be addressed include (but are not limited to): > > * In which situations are biases most likely to occur? > * Which mechanisms enable biases to interfere with scientific > practice? Are these mechanisms intrinsic to scientific practices > or can we debias scientific procedures to mitigate or eliminate > them altogether? > * What relationship(s) do biases have to values in science? Do > negative biases have any special implications for the value-free > ideal? > * What relationship(s) do biases have to diversity in science? > * How might we characterize ‘negative’ biases? > * Are there different types of biases or biasing mechanisms in science? > > This workshop is supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG), as > a part of the research project “A Philosophical Approach to Biasing > Mechanisms in Scientific Research” and the SOCRATES > <https://www.socrates.uni-hannover.de/en/> Centre for Advanced > Studies.
