Check the website here: http://enlites.com/ Dr. Daisy Dixon is a philosopher of art and an artist, and a Lecturer in Philosophy at Cardiff University. Her research falls at the intersection of philosophy of art, philosophy of language, and political philosophy. She explores how visual art behaves like speech, and how curators and interpreters can affect what an artwork communicates to its audience. She is the author of Depraved: The Story of Dangerous Art. In this episode, we focus on Depraved. We start by discussing what the ethics of art is, and what “depravity” means. We talk about whether artworks themselves can be depraved, and the intentions of artists. We talk about sex, nudity, “obscenity”, and pornography. We discuss whether art can cause crime, and whether it can contribute to propaganda for oppressive regimes. Finally, we discuss whether we should separate the art from the artist, whether censorship works, and whether there should be absolute freedom of artistic expression. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHE…","meta_description":"******Support the channel****** Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thedissenter PayPal: paypal.me/thedissenter PayPal Subscription 1 Dollar: https://tinyurl…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":6029,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-dissenter-1161217/episodes/1276-daisy-dixon-depraved-the-story-of-dangerous-art/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-dissenter-1161217/1276-daisy-dixon-depraved-the-story-of-dangerous-art.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
