Author: Alexander Douglas
Alexander is a researcher whose work really does span multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary modes/dimensions, a committed teacher in higher education (with specialist interests in both creative practice and critical thinking), a practising musician (as conductor/MD, instrumentalist and composer/arranger), arts and health practitioner, facilitator, consultant, mentor and activist whose research identity began with music and theology before expanding to multiple issues constellating around philosophical and theological anthropology, aesthetics, epistemology, ‘pure’ and ‘applied’ phenomenology, the critical medical humanities and race. Hermeneutics is also part of his researcher identity and undergirds his commitment to anticolonial and antiracist meaning-making and world-building.
In summary, he is ‘a humanities geek in the body of a musician’.
