Hi, this is Aili Bresnahan.  My current interests are in the Philosophy of Art and Philosophy of Law, with special focus on practice and interpretation.  My dissertation is likely to be an attempt to explore the ways in which the practice and performance of dance is experienced as at once actual and representational, both subjective and objective.  Here I will draw heavily from the post-Kantian and post-Hegelian semiotic and pragmatic traditions, along with recent work by philosophers and performance studies scholars who focus on the idea of physical practice as a sort of embodied mind.
