Tucker D. Farris

Tucker D. Farris is a sociologist and social theorist originally from Woody Creek, Colorado. He will complete a PhD in sociology with a specialization in Cultural, Social, and Political Thought from the University of Victoria in British Columbia in 2024. His work centers around a social existentialism that blends symbolic interactionist, social constructivist and conflict perspectives as a means of ascribing depth of meaning to the everyday life of the individual in a social world. His work explores concepts of self, despair, death, imagination, fantasy, the institution, and the metaphysics of everyday social life. His work often takes the form of experimental sociophilosophy, wherein the conventional means of knowledge production in the field of sociology are simultaneously critiqued and expanded.
