Paul's Homepage

Hi, I'm Paul Tulipana, erstwhile visual artist, computer programmer, and technology executive. (Read more of my resume at LinkedIn.)

I operate a small design firm, Design Less Better, and write a design blog, BlogLESS, with my partner Nick Senske.

I hold an MA in Media Theory from The European Graduate School (thesis), a non-traditional continental philosophy program, and a BFA for a self-created fine arts/computer science curriculum from Washington University in St. Louis.

I am currently applying to pursue my PhD studies in Philosophy. My major area of philosophical interest is the relationship between Hegel's metaphysics and Sittlichkeit. More broadly, I am interested in attempts at ethico-ontological frameworks in 20th century continental philosophy (Adorno, Levinas, Derrida) and German Idealism. I also have a developing interest in analytic meta-ontology.

My personal blog is Sorglose Nacht, which contains my notes on both philosophical texts and contemporary art. I share my bookmarks and am up on Twitter. You can email me at .

In my dwindling free time, I enjoy playing popular music, running, and reading Modernist literature.
