Anaïs Giannuzzo

I am a PhD student at the University of Geneva, working under Julia Langkau's supervision on the SNFS Prima project “Creativity, Imagination and Tradition”. My research interests revolve around the philosophy of mind, the aesthetics and epistemology. In particular, I am interested in questions such as the acquiring of self-knowledge through works of fiction, the mental states we experience when reading fiction, and narration. Further topics I am eager to explore revolve around creativity and AI, for instance: Is there a link between self-knowledge and creativity? What role does narration play in creative processes? Can a work created by an AI be considered creative, and why (not) – notably with respects to narration and self-knowledge? I also do photography, ceramics, knitting, sewing.
