Upcoming Talk

I am giving a talk next Friday at my department’s logic seminar series. Here are the details:

Title: The Logic of Knowledge and the Flow of Information

Abstract: In this talk I cover some work still in development which concerns the notions of information and knowledge as exemplified in Fred Dretske’s ‘Knowledge and The Flow of Information’. In particular, I cover (1) some work on the logic of information flow and (2) the issue of developing an epistemic logic which captures Dretske’s notion of knowledge as a semi-penetrating operator.

Submissions are invited for the Fourth Workshop on the Philosophy of Information, which will take place at the University of Hertfordshire, 10-11 May 2012.
The topic this year will be the intersections between PI, epistemology and philosophical semantics.

The authors of the selected papers will be eligible for bursaries that will cover transportation, accommodation and subsistence.
Bursaries will be awarded on the basis of need and scientific merit.
