3rd Workshop on the Philosophy of Information

Brussels, Belgium

Third Workshop on the Philosophy of Information,
18-19 November 2010
http://www.vub.ac.be/CLWF/3WPI/

An ambitious project like the philosophy of information cannot operate in 
isolation. Not only does it have to rely on input from the sciences of 
information and computation, it also needs to convince those who are 
sympathetic to the project (including those who had been philosophers of 
information without realising it) to contribute actively, and encourage 
the sceptics to challenge the basic assumptions of the philosophy of 
information. The series of workshops in the philosophy of information 
provide a platform for this kind of interaction.

For the third workshop on the philosophy of information, we bring together 
researchers who have been working in the philosophy of information, with 
researchers working in related areas.
