Simone A. Medina Polo is a philosopher and interdisciplinary artist based out of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Currently affiliated with the Global Centre for Advanced Studies for the Masters program in Philosophy and Psychoanalysis, Simone was a researcher studying through the Certificate in Psychoanalysis and she holds a B.A. in Philosophy from Concordia University of Edmonton. Simone's most extensive project concerns an exploration of philosophy and psychoanalysis as they relate love as a logically structuring touchstone.

Under the creative moniker pseudo-antigone, Simone deploys contemporary electronic and pop music to explore the voice and instrumental intensity as an expression of transgender embodiment that concerns itself with the partial object and matrixial aesthetic encounters. Under that same moniker, Simone publishes clandestine essays on the internet.
