Sabbatical Presentation - Metaphysical agency in conceptual engineering 

Conceptual engineers take seriously the claim that concepts like family, disability, race, and gender literally shape reality. But what is it that these engineers actually do when they go about engineering concepts? Hint: they don’t need a literal toolbox to do it. I want to suggest that they engage in a distinctive kind of agency.

Printing Molecules

A week before the end of spring semester,  chemistry students gathered near the 3D printer in the back of a computer lab, watching closely as the machine whirred. The extruder moved back and forth in small, rapid motions, shaping blue filament into various molecular models the students had designed. For many, it was their first time using such a printer.

  • Attend conferences?
