Architecture of Encounter Podcast: Episode 0 – Phenomenologists

Hear ye! Hear ye! Consider this an announcement of a new podcast series for The Architecture of Encounter.

This episode is an introduction to the 7-part series that discusses phenomenologists who laid the foundation on which the Mediated Encounter Ontology (MEOW) is built.

Audio: Introductory Podcast for The Architecture of Encounter

This series begins with philosophers from Descartes through Berkeley, Locke, and Hume to Kant, who will be the focus of the first episode. Except for this introduction, which is 15 minutes, each episode is around 7 minutes because I wanted to keep them bite-sized.

  1. Immanuel (Manny) Kant: The Renovator
  2. Edmund (Eddie) Husserl: The Methodical Suspender
  3. Martin (Marty) Heidegger: The Destroyer Who Moved In
  4. Maurice (Moe) Merleau-Ponty: The Body That Almost Escaped
  5. Sara Ahmed: The Orienter Who Changed the Subject
  6. Frantz Fanon: The Phenomenologist under Fire
  7. Alfred North (Big Al) Whitehead: The Architect Who Overbuilt

The PDF table below is a summary of the various positions versus MEOW.
