89<p>On this page you will find links to various papers, presentations, theses, 
90  reviews, articles, etc. that I have written over the years. I have annotated 
91  each to explain its context and, briefly, the content. Except as noted, these 
92  are unpublished and appear within each subject in order oldest to newest. You may not distribute any of these without permission; if 
93  you wish to cite any or make use of any in your own projects, please contact 
94  me for advice and permission. Feedback and commentary is of course also welcome 
95  <a href="mailto:[email protected]">here</a>, but I am not working on these 
96  directly at the moment. Current projects are linked to on the current research 
97  page. All papers are in PDF format unless otherwise stated. Formatting is lost in 
98  many cases due to changing computers and wordprocessors at one point. I have 
99  documented this as appropriate. I hope to fix this eventually. (Note to those 
100  not familiar with the Quebec system: Undergraduate arts degrees are typically 
101  3 years, so a &quot;third year paper&quot; is analogous to a &quot;senior&quot; paper in the context of the US, for example.)</p>
102<p>Philosophy of technology, including AI:</p>
103<ul>
104  <li><a href="responsetoaicritics.PDF">Some responses to critics of AI</a>. A 
105    survey of artificial intelligence criticisms and rebuttals to each. Written 
106    in my 2nd year at McGill.</li>
107  <li><a href="similarity.PDF">Similarity in computer programs</a>. Presentation 
108    notes for a class talk in my third year at McGill. Very shaky and rough around 
109    the edges - more of a &quot;consciousness raising&quot; piece than a paper. 
110    Some images missing in this version.</li>
111  <li><a href="toys.PDF">The scientist-technologist distinction</a>. An exploration 
112    of this distinction, complicated by a discussion of applied science as an 
113    &quot;in between&quot; category. Written as a philosophy graduate student 
114    at UBC.</li>
115  <li><a href="turingpresentation.pdf">Turing's Hidden Legacy: Metaphysics of Computing</a>. Notes for a talk given at CAP@CMU 2002 about the implicit metaphysics present in Turing's famous &quot;On Computable Numbers ...&quot; paper. (I have yet to locate the overhead projector slides that should go with this as they seem to have been misplaced during my shuffling between computers at some point.) </li>
116  <li><a href="IMA1.pdf">Notes on Issues in Multimedia Authoring, part 1</a>. 
117    Written as answers to a take home exam, these notes include critical remarks 
118    on Kay's discussion of the Dynabook, Vannevar Bush's Memex, Nelson's introduction 
119    of hypertext, Berners-Lee's initial proposal for the World Wide Web and Heilig's 
120    &quot;Cinema of the Future&quot;. Written as a logic and computation student 
121    at CMU. This and the three papers following it were all work for the same 
122    directed reading course.</li>
123  <li><a href="IMA2.PDF">Notes on Issues in Multimedia Authoring, part 2</a>. 
124    Written as answers to a take home exam, these notes include critical remarks 
125    on DeLany and Landau on the nature of hypertext, Janet Murray on the aesthetics 
126    of digital media, and Brenda Laurel on HCI. Written as a logic and computation 
127    student at CMU. Warning: big file, lots of graphics; also the original printed 
128    document reproduced a <a href="http://www.macnn.com">MacNN</a> forum which is lost in this version as it was 
129    just a printout (as opposed to a screen capture) of this website. At the time 
130    of compilation of the current site's papers, MacNN was more or less the same 
131    as it was when the notes were written, so the reader should have little difficulty 
132    following along.</li>
133  <li><a href="IMA3.PDF">Notes on Issues in Multimedia Authoring, part 3</a>. 
134    Written as answers to a take home exam, these notes include critical remarks 
135    on Horn's notion of a visual language, Tannebaum on communication theories, 
136    and Spinello's discussion of property rights and &quot;cyberspace&quot;. Written 
137    as a logic and computation student at CMU.</li>
138  <li><a href="HCI.PDF">Aesthetics and HCI</a>. The role of beauty and other cognate 
139    concepts in human-computer interaction. Written as a logic and computation 
140    student at CMU. This paper is also one I have given as a short lecture to several audiences. Here are some slides from the original version of the <a href="presentation.pdf">lecture</a>. Warning: large file! </li>
141  <li><a href="take6c.PDF">Super-Turing Computation: A case study analysis</a>. 
142    My MS thesis from CMU. Analyzes the claim of Hava Siegelman concerning her 
143    super-Turing computation model. Supervisor on the project was Wilfried Sieg.</li>
144  <li><a href="similarityredux.pdf">Similarity in Computer Programs, redux</a>. A rewritten version of the similarity in computer programs paper, originally intended as a conference submission but unlikely to be used for that at present. This version is more correct / useful from a computability theory standpoint and also less ambitious. More of a &quot;consciousness raising&quot; type piece than a paper with a definite conclusion. </li>
145  <li><a href="eventlogdarkly.pdf">Through an Event Log, Darkly</a>. This paper (presented at NACAP 08 in July 2008) is (as far as I know) the world's first philosophy paper about VMWare and its limitations. The slides (PDF'd - email me if you want the PowerPoint or Keynote version) are also <a href="eventlogdarkly_slides.pdf">available</a>. There is also an expanded and modestly revised version in <em>The Information Society</em>, for which see <a href="http://www.indiana.edu/~tisj/26/index.html">here</a>.  </li>
146  <li><a href="networkingfinal.pdf">Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics of Computer Networking</a>. Happy 90th birthday, happy 50th aniversary of <em>Causality in Modern Science</em>, Professor Bunge! This is a first introduction to what I take to be the issues surrounding the metaphysics of computer networks. It is simply an application of Bunge's metaphysics to this question. As it was designed to be presented at NACAP 09 in June 2009, it is merely this. I hope to expand it (or write a sequel) to deal more with the issues raised and give more of &quot;me&quot; in the work. Slides (PDF'd - email me if you want the PowerPoint or Keynote version) are also <a href="networking.key.pdf">available</a>. [Warning: Large file!] </li>
147  <li><a href="vmware2010-a1.pdf">What Does a Computer Simulation Have to Reproduce? The Case of VMWare</a>. This is a sequel to &quot;Through an Event Log, Darkly&quot; (see above) and a cousin to &quot;Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics of Computer Networking.&quot; (above). It discusses the question of its title through the work of David Wiggins and an updated notion of what &quot;possesses&quot; laws which is my own (though with a strong influence by Walter Dean). Presented at NACAP 2010 (July 2010); slides are <a href="vmware2010presentation.pdf">available</a>. (As usual, email me if you wish the Pages or Keynote versions of the material.) </li>
148  <li><a href="pseudoperipateticAShandbook-rewrite-reorder-reformat.pdf">A Pseudoperipatetic Application Security Handbook for Virtuous Software</a>. Impressionistic application of the Nichomachean Ethics to matters of application security in software development. <a href="CAP-2011-AS.ppt">Presented</a> in abridged form at IACAP 2011; this is a Powerpoint file. (Pages and Keynote originals available on demand.) </li>
149  <li><a href="iacap2012-fullb.pdf">Learning to Hypercompute? An Analysis of Siegelmann Networks</a>. Presented at AISB/IACAP 2012 in honour of the Turing Year, this is a continuation of the MS thesis above. It answers questions arising from it (implicitly or otherwise) with an appeal to new work by Norton on idealizations. <a href="iacap2012-presentation.pdf">Presentation</a> is here. </li>
150</ul>
151<p>Philosophy of science: </p>
152<ul>
153  <li><a href="psycho.PDF">Psychoanalysis and pseudoscience</a>. Once more unto 
154    the breach, old friends. Yes, psychoanalysis is a thorough going pseudoscience 
155    (and pseudotechnology) and yes, it matters. Written in my third year at McGill. 
156    (Current version slightly corrupt for some reason.) It was also presented as a talk in the same class.</li>
157  <li><a href="hardin.PDF">Relational account of colour</a>. A criticism of Hardin's 
158    view of colour on the grounds it is not psychophysically realistic. Written 
159    in my third year at McGill.</li>
160  <li><a href="nsqr.pdf">Neuroscience, Qualia, and Representationalism</a>. Part of the controversy in philosophy of perception as I see it centers around what is represented with regards to the &ldquo;representation&rdquo; and &ldquo;phenomenism&rdquo; debate and how these influence what one would want to say about &ldquo;qualia&rdquo;. I feel that a large portion of the confusion centers around what exactly is represented by the brain when it has received &ldquo;sensory input.&rdquo; Philosophers generally have ignored what is known here and are still relying on what appear to be outmoded notions on (neural) representation, particularly when it comes to representation of non-propositional facts. In this paper I sketch out some of is known about what is represented by the brain when it one is looking at, say, a puddle of water (or twater?). This will allow a beginning of a cutting of the gordian knot around qualia. Written in my third year at McGill. </li>
161  <li><a href="sociobio.PDF">Human sociobiology</a>. A analysis of some claims 
162    for and against human sociobiology. Written in my third year at McGill. </li>
163  <li><a href="neuro.PDF">The philosophical relevance of cognitive neuroscience</a>. 
164    A survey on this theme. Written in my third year at McGill and still a favourite 
165    of mine. My neuroscientist friend Kathy really liked it.</li>
166  <li><a href="Nothingbutism.PDF">Philosophy, History, Sociology, Rhetoric: Avoiding 
167    &#147;Nothing But-ism&#148; in Science Studies</a>. I have noticed that many 
168    practitioners of &quot;science studies&quot; (rhetoricians, sociologists, 
169    etc.) think that they can, by themselves, demonstrate that their particular 
170    factor of interest (language, social structure, etc.) explains the <b>content 
171    </b>of scientific findings. This thesis is <i>prima facie</i> unlikely, at 
172    best. But to demonstrate it one cannot merely appeal to  from 
173    within one's discipline: the question is necessarily interdisciplinary, if 
174    only in a negative sense. This paper defends the aforementioned claims and 
175    argues for some means to their solution. Written at UBC.</li>
176  <li><a href="probability.PDF">What is probability?</a> A survey of factual interpretations 
177    of the probability calculus. Somewhat sloppy in parts, it nevertheless pulls 
178    together a lot of important material. Written in my time as a logic and computation 
179    student at CMU. Warning: includes untranslated French.</li>
180  <li><a href="neurophilosophy.PDF">Descartes, Language, Neuroscience</a>. Presentation 
181    given to the students of The Nature of Language for which I was a TA spring 
182    2003 semester at CMU. This material also led to a examination question which I co-wrote and is, unfortunately, not available here. I owe a word of thanks to McGill's Jim McGilvray for 
183    suggesting the general idea behind the &quot;Chomskian&quot; aspect of this 
184    talk. </li>
185</ul>
186<p>Epistemology:</p>
187<ul>
188  <li><a href="belief.PDF">G&auml;rdenfors' Belief Dynamics</a>. A critical discussion 
189    of some aspects of Peter G&auml;rdenfors' theory of belief dynamics, focusing primarily on his theory of epistemic expansions. </li>
190  <li><a href="causalbeliefs.PDF">G&auml;rdenfors on Causal Beliefs</a>. A critical 
191    discussion of some aspects of Peter G&auml;rdenfors' theory of belief dynamics 
192    as applied to causation.</li>
193  <li><a href="epistemology.PDF">Normative-Descriptive-Idealized</a>. How do we 
194    make the distinction between these branches of epistemology? What does it mean to claim that although no real agents can live up to a standard, the standard is nevertheless normative for their behaviour? Makes special 
195    reference to discussions involving subjective probability (particularly, but not exclusively, subjective Bayesianism). Written while a 
196    logic and computation student at CMU. </li>
197</ul>
198<p><a href="ch.gif">Metaphysics</a>:</p>
199<ul>
200  <li><a href="fr.PDF">Fischer &amp; Ravizza&#146;s Account of Moral Responsibility</a>. 
201    A metaphysical look at F&amp;R's study of moral responsibility and freedom. 
202    Written while an MA student at UBC.</li>
203  <li><a href="Kane.PDF">Spooky Metaphysics, Weird Neuroscience, Kane and the 
204    Varieties of Free Will Worth Wanting</a>. A metaphysician and philosopher 
205    of science looks at Robert Kane's attempt to ground libertarian free will 
206    via neuroscience and quantum mechanics. Written at UBC.</li>
207  <li><a href="eventsreview.PDF">Prospectus for a Special Theory of Events</a>. 
208    An early draft of the prospectus for my MA thesis (see below). I include it 
209    because it contains substantially more detailed bibliography of the literature 
210    on events than the thesis itself or indeed the prospectus that passed. (It 
211    is thus rough in many places.)</li>
212  <li><a href="thesis.pdf">A Special Davidsonian Theory of Events</a>. My MA thesis, 
213    written at UBC. Criticizes Donald Davidson's theory of events using insights 
214    from the special theory of relativity. Updates Davidson's account in this 
215    light by use of a few insights taken from Kim. Contains a slight error in the discussion of quantum mechanics which is not of direct importance to the main results. Supervisor on this project 
216    was Gary Wedeking. Here is a copy of the introductory <a href="intro.pdf">sections</a> (due to limitations in page numbering, it is a different file): the abstract, tables of contents and figures.</li>
217</ul>
218<p>Philosophy (and history) of mathematics:</p>
219<ul>
220  <li><a href="armstrong.pdf">Armstrong's metaphysics and philosophy of mathematics</a>. 
221    Written at UBC as a response to David Armstrong's philosophy of set theory and its use of the notion of &quot;state of affairs&quot;. </li>
222  <li><a href="turingzeitgeist.PDF">Turing's Zeitgeist</a>. A compilation of important 
223    mathematical concepts and ideas that are useful for understanding the mathematical 
224    side of Turing's &quot;On Computable Numbers ...&quot; paper. Written for 
225    a directed reading while I was at CMU.</li>
226  <li><a href="receptionturing.PDF">Turing's Reception</a>. An unfinished draft 
227    of a sequel to the above paper concerning the immediate reaction and responses 
228    to Turing's paper. Written for a directed reading while I was at CMU, though 
229    it was never used in its current form. Focus is partially on the nature of 
230    the Church-Turing thesis (seems it should really be called the Post-Kleene thesis, as Church and Turing had different ideas about the matter and neither are <em>theses</em>, but that's for another time ...) and its development.</li>
231</ul>
232<p>Philosophy of language:</p>
233<ul>
234  <li><a href="lli.PDF"> Idealism in Language and Linguistics </a>A critique of several views about language on the grounds that they are (in various ways) idealist. This version has lost its formatting. Presented in my third year at McGill.</li> 
235  <li><a href="wordsofpowerprecision.doc">Words of Power, Words of Precision</a>. 
236    A discussion of how to make one's words clearer. Written for the Social Justice Committee. (They 
237    have not as yet used it for anything.) Contains a slight error: discussion 
238    of Lavoisier should say that his book was <i>one</i> of the first chemistry 
239    textbooks, not <i>the</i> first. Word format.</li>
240 <li><a href="exfalsoquodlibettwinearthphilosophicalmethod.txt">Ex Falso Quodlibet, Twin Earth, Philosophical Method </a>. I'm not sure if this piece is worth reading or not. Sometimes I think it is gravely important, and sometimes not (sort of like the earlier student papers on this page!). In any case, I first wrote it for myself and, a bit, as a new years present one year for <a href="http://web.uvic.ca/~ayap/">Audrey Yap</a>. I am also not sure it counts as philosophy of language. Regardless of my misgivings, this is an expanded version written after some off the cuff discussions at IACAP-2011 with <a href="http://becominggaia.wordpress.com/">Mark Waser</a>, <a href="http://hrilab.cs.tufts.edu/people/matthias.php">Matthias Scheutz</a> and <a href="http://faculty.evansville.edu/tb2/">Tony Beavers</a>. Gist: Be <em>careful</em> with Twin Earth thought experiments. Text format.
241</ul>
242<p>History of philosophy:</p>
243<ul>
244  <li><a href="whatis.PDF">What is?</a> A very short paper on the contemporary 
245    relevance of Anaxagoras and Parmenides. Written as a first year student at 
246    McGill for the course that got me interested in ancient natural philosophy.</li>
247  <li><a href="amechanist.PDF">Aristotle the Mechanist</a>. Discusses the thesis 
248    that Aristotle's chemistry  is as mechanistic as one could hope for a natural 
249    philosophy at the time. Written as a first year student at McGill for the 
250    course that got me interested in ancient natural philosophy.</li>
251  <li><a href="plato.PDF">Plato, Truth and Conservatism</a>. Makes the case that 
252    Plato is a progressive, at least with regards to truth. Written in my last 
253    year at McGill. This version is corrupted and lost its formatting. I am looking 
254    for a better copy.</li>
255  <li><a href="substancemodeLocke.PDF">Substance and Mode in Locke</a>. This paper 
256    was written in my 3rd year at McGill and discusses epistemological and ontological 
257    considerations in this ubiquitous topic.</li>
258  <li><a href="kantlove.PDF">Kant's Unrequited Love</a>. This is about Kantian 
259    metaphysics and philosophy of mathematics and was written for the same course 
260    as the above one. It is a bit chatty in places and has a passage that the 
261    PDF corrupts for some reason. Copy and paste the blacked-out text to a 
262    text editor or word processor to read it.</li>
263  <li><a href="atomism.PDF">Why atomism?</a> A somewhat haphazard discussion of 
264    the origins and possible motivations for presocratic atomism. Written as my

271    Philosophy movement.</li>
272  <li><a href="metasphere.txt">Metaphysics and Modern Science</a>. Presentation 
273    given at the UBC philosophy Socratic Sphere (a philosophy discussion group 
274    aimed at undergraduates). Missing the handout of 
275    a stylized picture of a molecule that accompanied the talk. Text format only.</li>

277    2.0</a>. Review of this online encyclopedia, also available in print in the Dec.

285    for the SJC. Written in a popular rather than academic style. A slightly different 
286    version of this (and the 3 papers that follow in this section) can be found 
287    on their <a href="http://www.s-j-c.net/">website</a>. Their version also includes 
288    a response from a critic and my responses to that response. RTF format.</li>
289  <li><a href="sociotechnology.rtf">Sociotechnology</a>. Second in the above series. 
290    Explains what a sociotechnology is and why one should care. RTF format</li>
291  <li><a href="sciandtechpolicy.rtf">Science and Technology Policy</a>. Third 
292    in the above series. Discusses science and technology policies in a very broad 
293    way as they affect the SJC's mandate. RTF format.</li>
294  <li><a href="dialogue.rtf">Science and Technology Policy and Indigenous Knowledge: 
295    a Dialogue</a>. Fourth in the above series. Ties up some of the loose ends from 
296    the earlier parts in the series in the form of a (fictitious, Platonic-style) dialogue between 
297    friends. RTF format.</li>

301  <li><a href="newsarticlesummary.doc">Some remarks on the C&amp;E News article 
302    on water treatment and chemistry</a>. Summary for a popular audience of a 
303    Chemistry and Engineering News article (July 19th 2004) about a chemists' 
304    conference on water supplies. Written for the SJC as an illustration of how 
305    scientifically grounded knowledge intersects with questions of social justice. 
306    (Has not been used by them for anything as of yet.) Word format. </li>
307  <li><a href="hydrocarbons.doc">Hydrocarbons</a>. A continuation of the above 
308    paper on the importance of hydrocarbons in our day-to-day lives. I wrote this 
309    in part because many discussions of &quot;peak oil&quot; and the like often 
310    pertain to fuels only. Word format.</li>
311  <li><a href="sharing.pdf">Using Shares</a>. A document written to teach users at the SJC about Windows file sharing.</li>
312  <li><a href="writingfortheweb.pdf">Writing for the Web</a>. At the SJC I was responsible for a lot of web implementation. The next best thing to having others learn HTML would be to have them learn to write in some ways to make  transferring their documents to the web easier. This discusses how to do said writing. </li>
313  <!--<li><a href="updatingsite.pdf">Updating the SJC web site</a>. Detailed instructions on using Dreamweaver and a brief introduction to HTML as they pertain to the SJC's website. </li>-->
