Our friends from Université de Paris Panthéon-Sorbonne retur n for a third installment of their symposium Arts & Pragmatism: From Or dinary Aesthetics to Post Creation.
\nThis day-long symposium w ill be chaired by Yann Toma and Sandra Laugier. From the organizers:
\nWe have noticed it during the two previous symposia of our program: the pragmatist philosophy and in particular Dewey defends the idea that ae sthetics must not only be considered as the search for truths about art an d its creations but also as what concerns the experience of the persons wi th an artwork (a sensitive and active experience). The reception would thu s be the dynamic experience of an incarnated observer\, acting\, feeling i n his senses and his affects what is the work and what it makes him feel.< br />\n
\nThe political stake of the pragmatist aesthetics is to make sure that the strong aesthetic experiences remain open and access ible to the largest public and become even a «matter of ordinary conversat ion». It is then a matter of thinking about shared experience as a transmi ssion of values\, an important phenomenon for the moral\, political\, “edu cational” reflection of adults» (Cavell 1979\, 1981\, Shusterman\, Laugier 2019\, 2023\, Gerrits 2020). Thus\, this question of pragmatism addresses societal issues that concern all audiences\, not just from a broadcast/tr ansmission perspective. By focusing on experience and agency\, this way of approaching pragmatism involves the cultural audience in a broad way to t he point where it engages mediums such as television and in general digita l cultures.
\nThe concept of Post-Creation\, insofar as it pl ays a form of exteriority to an original Creation\, has all its place in a world where the strong aesthetic experiences remain open and accessible t o a wider public. It is a question of placing the creation beyond what is biased\, in the heart of a form of Third State of the artistic act in char ge of a heuristic and critical potential\, towards a form extracted from t he zone of influence of the world of the art as such. The idea of Post-Cre ation tends towards the universal that would be the fact of conceiving the creation beyond any not institutionalized academism. We will see how a po ssible emulation between the ordinary aesthetic and the shared experience of the Post-Creation is articulated and played\, where the experience of t he creation produces knowledge and transforms what is out of the specific field of perception of the art in so many new acting and reflexive spaces. In that\, the influence of the artistic creation on whole sections of the society\, domains of perception until now inaccessible\, becomes a stake of opening which results from the transformation of a form of ordinary aes thetics in a Post-Creation freed from the aesthetic channels of the contem porary art.

The Noble Lie proposed by Plato for the J ust City in Republic III has been much misunderstood. Its agenda is twofol d: to get the citizens of the City to see their society as a natural entit y\, with themselves as all ‘family’ and akin\; and to get the Guardians in particular to make class mobility\, on which the justice of the City depe nds\, a top priority. Since the second is taken to depend on the first\, t he Lie passage amounts to an argument (1) that the survival of a just comm unity depends on the existence of social solidarity between elite and mass \, which allows for full class mobility and genuine meritocracy\; (2) that this solidarity in turn depends on an ideology of natural unity\; and (3) that such ideologies are always false. So the Lie really is a lie\, but a necessary one\; as such it poses an awkward ethical problem for Plato and \, if he is right\, for our own societies as well.
