Marta Benenti is a Research Fellow in the Department of Philosophy at the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Murcia, affiliated with the Phronesis: Analytic Philosophy Group. Holding a prestigious Marie Curie Fellowship, she bridges philosophical inquiry with cognitive science to investigate expressive properties across art, nature, and everyday experience. Her research centers on Aesthetics and Philosophy of Mind, examining how emotions manifest in music, landscapes, and visual art through theories like contour analysis. Key interests include perceptual learning in aesthetic appreciation, paradoxes of cultural tourism authenticity, and climate change narratives through philosophical fiction. She extends these inquiries to thought experiments in outer space exploration and secondary meaning in musical metaphors, consistently integrating empirical psychology with analytic philosophy. Benenti's recent publications (2020-2024) reveal a cohesive trajectory in expressiveness, demonstrating how affective affordances regulate emotional states and how fictional frameworks illuminate real-world environmental crises. Her work on tourism paradoxes reveals tensions between commodified authenticity and genuine engagement, while her analysis of music-landscape emotion recognition advances cross-modal perceptual theories. Scientific recognition includes: Marie Curie Fellowship As a core member of the Phronesis research group, Benenti contributes to collaborative projects that synthesize analytic rigor with interdisciplinary approaches, particularly through editorial work on contemporary expressiveness debates and Foucault-inspired power analyses in aesthetic contexts.
