Vol. 9 No. 2 (2026): Open issue

A black‑and‑white woodcut that visually suggests a flat Earth under a solid “firmament,” with a traveler poking his head through the sky to see the machinery of the heavens beyond.

Simon Smith reassesses the conspiracy theory of Flat Earth as a communal self-cure for psychic anxiety that undergird reductive materialism and determinism, Michael David Székely reads musical improvisation through Agamben’s notion of im/potentiality, Vincent Meelberg questions whether the Ableton Move truly democratises musical creativity, Dror Pimentel reinterprets Israeli art through Heidegger, and Jeremy Fernando reviews Geoffrey Brodaksilva’s The Philosophy of Aggressiveness.

Cover-image: The “Flammarion Engraving” (c. 1888), unknown artist. First published in Camille Flammarion's _L’Atmosphère: météorologie populaire_ (Paris, 1888). Public domain.
