Speaker(s): Professor Margaret Boden
Recorded on 29 January 2015 in Old Theatre, Old Building.

Professor Boden will explore philosophical issues about art. Are computer artworks physical objects? Do they really qualify as art? 

Margaret Boden is Research Professor of Cognitive Science at the University of Sussex.

LSE's Centre for Philosophy of Natural and Social Science (@CPNSS), established in 1990, promotes research into philosophical, methodological and foundational questions arising in the natural and the social sciences, and their application to practical problems. The Centre's work is inherently interdisciplinary, and a full calendar of events contributes to a lively intellectual environment.
