ECAP'06 - Program now online
Dear Aoirists - while the following will be of only tangential interest to most of you, I'd appreciate your sending it along to interested colleagues: == With apologies for duplications and cross-postings On behalf of the Program Committee for ECAP'06, we are very pleased to announce that the conference program is now available on the conference website, <www.eu-cap.org> - then follow the link on the left-hand side of the page to "Conference Program" As a reminder: ===================================================================== COMPUTING AND PHILOSOPHY E-CAP 2006@NTNU Norway Norwegian University of Science and Technology Dragvoll Campus, Trondheim, Norway, June 22-24, 2006 Conference Co-Chairs: Charles Ess (Drury University / NTNU): <cmess@drury.edu> May Thorseth (NTNU): <may.thorseth@hf.ntnu.no> http://www.eu-cap.org E-CAP is the European conference on Computing and Philosophy, the European affiliate of the International Association for Computing and Philosophy (IACAP, www.iacap.org). E-CAP is organized in cooperation with the Association of Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Artificial Intelligence (SIGART) ===================================================================== E-CAP is the premier European venue for current research, reflection, and lively discussion of all aspects of the "computational turn" that has emerged over the past several decades, and continues to expand and develop as a result of the multiple interactions between philosophy and computing. The "culture" of E-CAP, like its sister CAP conferences in North America and Asia-Pacific, discourages paper reading - and stresses instead the presentation of ideas and lively discussion, along with informal networking. == We are very pleased with the quality and scope of the program of presentations now established for ECAP'06 - we believe you will find it of compelling interest indeed! On behalf of the Program Committee and presenting authors, we invite your participation in ECAP'06. - Charles Ess (co-chair) - May Thorseth (co-chair) - Johnny Søraker (local coordinator) == cX (otherwise known as) Charles Ess Distinguished Research Professor, Interdisciplinary Studies <http://www.drury.edu/gp21> Drury University 900 N.
