The Eastern Division meeting of the American Society for Aesthetics is coming up (April 3-4, in Philadelphia). I'll be commenting on an interesting paper by John Carvalho (Villanova University) which has to do with Jacques Attali's Noise: The Political Economy of Music, and "Strange Fruit" (as in Billy Holiday). The many notable events at this ASA include a special panel on Cognitive Science and the Arts, and, Lydia Goehr will be giving the Monroe Beardsley Lecture.
