I'm a philosophy undergrad with a minor in Spanish. I'm interested in phenomenological and hermeneutic analysis, poetic and aesthetic theory and criticism, and general cultural studies.

Alterity, Anomaly, and Corporeality and Corporealization
Alterity, Anomaly, and Corporeality/Corporealization
The following is a draft/super-rough sketch of a re-organization of my philosophy of mind and phenomenology; I'm partially publishing this unfinished because I just need to get these ideas down first so I can come back and correct myself soon. The most important take away, I feel, is the reconsideration of death as a phenomenology. Essentially, I asked myself how our phenomenological perceptive sense experience could itself occur, to which my answer is corporealization. Corporealization is the 'explosion' of sense experience enabled by any body (which is Corporeality); everything has a corporeality but corporealization is not necessarily realized through PPSE in all things. Thus, PPSE is a theory of mind, while corporealization is (almost?) an ontology.
