I am attempting to co-author a book on Enjoyment, Beauty, and Art with Richard Warner and Steven Wagner. Richard has been the primary author of and driving force behind most of the book so far, although Steve and I have contributed a lot of editorial help and thought experimentation, some ideas of our own, and even a little writing here and there. You can see the text in progress here (farther right = more current):

I am, however, supposed to be the primary author for a final chapter or two on how our notion of beauty can be related to the concept of art. I hold - even more humiliating than my belief in libertarian free will, perhaps - a beauty theory of art, or at least a 'beauty' theory of 'art'. And since I am teaching philosophy of art this term and talking about some of this work, I thought I would use this blog to facilitate the discussion, and my getting my own work done.
So now it's "Free Will, Agency, Beauty, and Art", but I think we'll just leave the url as it is.
