[Alta-Logic] World Logic Day in AB and BC: Jan 14th

[Gillman Payette]

Please forward this email to your departments/anyone that you think might be interested in attending or giving a short talk about logic.



Hi everyone, (apologies for cross posting)



World logic day is now less than a month away, and we (Gillman Payette, Nic Fillion & Kent Peacock) are planning another session for January 14th, 2023. It will run the same as previous years on zoom since it was nice to include many of those interested in logic from all over Alberta. This year, since the time zones work fairly well, we will be celebrating world logic day for those in both British Columbia and Alberta.


Yes, we have decided to hold the online meeting on Saturday January 14th and unless there is an overwhelming dissatisfaction with this plan, we will stick with the 14th.



The format will be similar to previous years; short talks running from 10am - 5pm mountain time (perhaps with zoom drinks afterward). All of those time slots may not be used, but it provides a wider set of options, and people can drop in on whichever talks interest them.



If you are interested in giving a short talk (~25 min. + 5min. for questions) please send me an email with a topic/title and a few preferred times (ggpayett at ucalgary.ca). As I said last year, I want to cast a wide net topic-wise, so everything from argumentation theory to recursion theory or history of logic. If I must make choices about which talks to include, I will opt for more widely accessible topics.



Regards,
