Hi, this is Aili Bresnahan.  My current interests are in the Philosophy of Art and American Pragmatism, with special focus on practice and methodology.  My dissertation will be an attempt to explore subjectivity in dance practice and performance.  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.
