I will present a sequence of observations which illustrate how the liar and sorites paradoxes are formally related\, culminating in the observation that both give rise to similar sorts of mathematical incompleteness phenomena. On this basis\, I will highlight the possibility of using formal undecidability in modeling semantic indeterminacy.

Another methodological project which has been attracting attention in the last few years is conceptual engineering (CE). Its areas of implementation are now diverse\, but as was the case initially with experimental philosophy\, aesthetics has unfortunately been left out. In this paper I argue that if conceptual engineers are interested in expanding their project to the field of aesthetics\, which would greatly benefit the field\, then they should rely on the existing experimental work of aestheticians. Instead of building a CE project in aesthetics from the ground up\, this paper explores the potential support experimental aesthetics could provide to CE\, thereby making its development more efficiently realizable. Furthermore\, I argue that doing so would be beneficial to experimental aesthetics. Currently\, the integration of X-Phi to the wider field of aesthetics is losing ground because certain objections\, predominantly the objection that X-Phi cannot be of relevance to normative questions\, have not been properly refuted. By pairing up with a normative programme like CE\, experimental aestheticians could finally put these objections to rest.  URL:/philevents/event/conceptual-engineering-seminar-talk-by-clotilde-torregrossa-on-experimental-aesthetics-and-conceptual-engineering/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58³Ô¹Ï\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Conceptual Engineering Seminar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20191217T150000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20191217T170000 DTSTAMP:20200129T153333Z CREATED:20200129T153333Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200129T153333Z UID:10000799-1576594800-1576602000@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar: Talk by Manuel Gustavo Isaac on “Broad-Spectrum Conceptual Engineering†DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nConceptual engineering is aptly characterized as the method to assess and improve our representational apparatuses. But little has been said so far on how to best construe these representational apparatuses for the very purposes of conceptual engineering — in other words\, on what conceptual engineering should be all about. This paper addresses this foundational issue in conceptual engineering\, and successively defends the theses that conceptual engineering should be: (i) About concepts\, (ii) psychologically construed\, (iii) as multiply realizable functional kinds. And thereby it claims to theoretically secure and justify the maximum scope\, flexibility\, and impact for the method of conceptual engineering on our representational apparatuses in our whole cognitive life.
