    Episode 10: Deleuze, Digital Media & Thought: A Conversation with Tim Deane-Freeman

    Tim Deane-Freeman talks to Meg McCamley and Tim Neal about his new book Deleuze, Digital Media & Thought, which places Deleuze’s philosophy in dialogue with both cinema and the concept of information. In this context, they discuss philosophy, film, TV and social control, and the broader challenge of embracing a kind of thought which eschews recognition in order to confront the radically new. Tim Deane-Freeman is a sessional lecturer in philosophy at Deakin, and Meg McCamley and Tim Neal are both Deakin PhD candidates.

    Episode 7: What are Peoples?

    The role of 'peoples' in global affairs is more pervasive and contested than ever, from issues of indigenous sovereignty to Brexit. But as Dr John Morss, Senior Lecturer in Law at Deakin tells A/Prof Patrick Stokes in this wide-ranging discussion, 'peoples' is itself a very contestable idea.

    Episode 3: The Ethics of Food Production

    Episode 2: Recognition and Refusal

    In the wake of the Uluru Statement from the Heart, the issue of indigenous sovereignty has become more visible in Australian life. What role does 'recognition' play in these struggles for sovereignty? Should indigenous groups seek to be recognised by the states and societies they find themselves confronting? Or is seeking recognition itself a form of subjugation? Professor Yin Paradies spoke on this topic at a recent PHI seminar event.

    Episode 1: Post-Truth?

    We're told we now live in a 'post-truth' era. But are we? What does that mean? Is being 'post-truth' even possible? And if that's really where we are, how do we get out? Deakin's Dr Cathy Legg offers some pragmatist responses to the 'post-truth' era, as well as telling us what it's like working as a philosopher in the tech industry. Read Cathy's paper "The Solution to Poor Opinions is More Opinions"
