As of Fall 2005, I am an Assistant Professor in the Philosophy Department at Cal State - Long Beach, after spending two years as a Visiting Lecturer in the Philosophy Department
at Washington University in St. Louis. I was also a Visiting Fellow at the Department of Logic and Philosophy of Science at University of California, Irvine for 2006-2007. I spent the four years between earning my Ph.D. and taking my position at WUSTL working in the computer software industry.
My main research areas are philosophy of mind and philosophy of psychology. Currently, I am exploring several issues related to the scientific studies of consciousness, vision, and color. I am also interested in psychological and economic research on negotiation. My background includes work on the metaphysics of consciousness (especially a representationalist approach) and in modern philosophy (focusing mainly on Kant). I can be reached by e-mail at wwright2@csulb.edu. My CV can be found here.
