Black-and-white poster for the Warwick Continental Philosophy Conference titled “Tracing Genealogy.” The design features abstract, organic cut-out shapes revealing photographs of curved concrete architecture and a staircase. Text announces the conference dates, “29th–30th Jun. 26,” and includes a QR code labeled “Further information.” A paragraph explains the theme of genealogy in continental philosophy, referencing thinkers such as Nietzsche, Foucault, Hume, and Bernard Williams. The poster notes that it is a call for papers issued by the PKEP, Department of Philosophy, University of Warwick.

This week I gave a talk at Warwick Philosophy (@philoswarwick.bsky.social) and had so much fun it still makes me smile two days later. Whether or not philosophy starts in wonder, it is wonderful when it brings so much laughter. (In other words: thank you!)
