Philosophy of design of philosophy

NOTE: I’ve converted this article into a page, and I will not be updating this article in the future.


As preparation for writing this book (which I’m horrified to see I’ve been claiming to “be in the process of writing” since at least 2012) I’m indexing the articles I’ve written on approaching philosophy as a design discipline.

Some of the earlier ones have a blunt simplicity to them that I want to recover, at least for the introduction. I’m going to list some of the better articles here for convenient reference. Some of them were hidden or were in draft form. There’s also one I was working on for a really long time and never did expose publicly (Design Pragmatism) but I’m just throwing it out there in rough form.

Listing these articles is kind of gratifying, but also a little upsetting. I’ve been sitting on this idea for nine years, and I think I’ve passed the point of diminishing returns on getting this idea out. I’m not even sure I’ve significantly improved it through these repetitive iterations.
