About

My research investigates the philosophical interplay of information and communication. In particular, I am working on a formal, empirically motivated account of how word meaning, communicative context, and agents’ information interact in the determination of mental attitude content (esp. memory and imagination content). I have recently become very interested in pictorial representation, and in the application of semantic tools and concepts in the philosophy of memory.
