\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.

Others have argued in response that the only reason for two s tates to require different conceptual capacities of the subject is precise ly because they have different sorts of contents\, and so there is no subs tantive difference between a ‘content’ view and a ‘state’ view. Here\, I p resent evidence for states that do\, in fact\, share the same content but differ in the required conceptual capacities: exogenous perceptual states\ , and endogenous\, voluntarily produced perceptual states. I argue that th is functional difference—voluntary versus involuntary production—constitut es the difference in concept-dependence. I then look to three possibilitie s for how this claim could affect our understanding of the relationship be tween cognition and perception.

While some scholars express concern that gendered biases and stereotypes remain embedded in scientific researc h\, others are alarmed about the politicization of science. This talk sets out three kinds of conflicts that can arise in the neuroscience of sex di fferences: academic freedom versus gender equality\; frameworks\, backgrou nd assumptions\, and dominant methodologies\; and inductive risk and socia l values. The boundaries between fair criticism and politicization are exp lored for each kind of conflict\, pointing to ways in which the academic c ommunity can facilitate fair criticism while protecting against politiciza tion.
