Speakers
-
Eduardo Torres
philosopher
Eduardo Torres born and raised in Mexico and moved to Estonia to study music and philosophy. After his degree from University of Tartu, he is currently working towards a PhD in Philosophy at Trinity College Dublin.
Eduardo works at the intersection of metaphysics and the philosophy of language, currently writing a dissertation on descriptive metaphysics, the study of the implicit categories and concepts of our talk and thought about the world. In short, trying to cast some light on how the way we ordinarily speak of– and think about— the world reflects our implicit views on the nature of reality itself.
