If you love Bridgerton or Jane Austen, this one’s for you. Step into the world of Kent, 1805 — where candlelit ballrooms, quiet longing, and forbidden affection intertwine.

So, here’s a thought: we all swoon over Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice… but would we actually fall for him in real life?
That’s exactly what I explore in a new article I just wrote. Spoiler: Darcy might be less “dreamy hero” and more “socially awkward 19th-century man with questionable manners.”

The Darcy–Elizabeth Myth
Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy aren’t just a romantic duo—they’re the blueprint for every “enemies-to-lovers” story you know today.
Their love doesn’t start with a spark. It begins with wit, conflict, and one famously fiery marriage proposal.

Who decides what's beautiful on social media?
How many times a day do you tap "like" without really looking? How many fleeting images pass before your eyes before you press "save" or scroll past?
In the digital universe, beauty is no longer something we search for — it’s something that’s recommended. The feed curates, the algorithm selects, and hashtags group entire visual worlds into what we now call aesthetics.
This isn’t a neutral process. In the Western tradition, Kant believed beauty was universal and disinterested. But contemporary thinkers like Bourdieu and Susan Sontag have challenged that: taste is learned, shaped by culture, power, and the media. Today, we navigate infinite digital museums where our ways of seeing are subtly guided.
I explore these questions — and the rise of algorithmic taste — in my latest article for The Conversatio:

The Romantic Death of Painting — or Painting Death Itself? 🎨
Is painting dead? Or does it keep returning through the very subject it has long obsessed over: death?
In my latest article for The Conversation, I explore how the idea of romantic death in painting has evolved from the 19th century to the present day. From the melancholic landscapes of Friedrich to Dark Academia, death remains a haunting yet powerful theme.
