Middlebrow Aesthetics: An Explanation and Defense
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We offer a philosophical account of the middlebrow as a theoretical category to do explanatory and critical work in aesthetics. On our account, the middlebrow ought to be understood as aspirational popular art.

Why Are Physics‐Based Models Taking so Long to Run?
Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Physics‐based models provide a reliable and interpretable framework based on established physical laws, allowing them to deal with unforeseen future conditions much better than statistical data‐driven methods. Physics‐based models in Earth science (e.g., climate models, hydrological models, and groundwater models) are commonly used for ...
