I am currently a second-year PhD student in Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh.  I’m interested in philosophy of mind, philosophy of technology, critical theory, psychoanalysis, the history of all of the above, and most other things. 

Before this, I worked as a fact-checker and editorial assistant for the London Review of Books. Before that, I studied literature at Cambridge, where I spent all my time reading philosophy. (Now I’m in a philosophy department, I do my best not to spend all my time reading novels.) I’ve also worked in galleries, art classes and community spaces.

I have an account on Bluesky and a Substack. Apart from that, I try to stay away from the virtual fiefdoms. You can contact me at: gnewson@ed.ac.uk.
