In 2009 Daniel Hourigan completed a PhD entitled "The Phantasmatic Subject of Technology: Slavoj Žižek, Techne, and the Abyss" which, under examination, received high acclaim from the University of London. He has published and presented papers on a wide variety of themes and interdisciplinary topics from psychoanalytic philosophy, radical idealist thought, the philosophy of culture, and the critique of technology in numerous forums. Currently, he is re-thinking the grounding of bioethics through a philosophical interrogation of bioethics' fantasy space in Continental philosophy and pop-culture, amongst other things. He also teaches in a variety of areas for Griffith University including art theory, philosophy, and media studies. And is a regular reviewer for Metapsychology Online Reviews.
