Have you ever swiped right on a dating app, only to meet someone who doesn’t quite match the profile you chose – yet you go along with it and even justify why this person was your preference all along?

This scenario captures how people experience and express their choices when manipulation is involved and touches upon the central theme of this lecture: how awareness of choice manifests across different levels of consciousness and within diverse semiotic systems. By discussing findings from experimental studies and phenomenological philosophy that examine verbal and non verbal expressions during choice justification, the lecture with Alexandra Mouratidou offers a fresh perspective on the subtle relations between choice making, expression, and choice awareness.

Feel free to bring a sandwich and come and listen!
