Reading can at times engage one emotionally and entail inner psychological experiences in ways akin to those in clinical psychoanalysis. In that light, after a general introduction regarding the import of reading, attention is turned to Proust, Freud's literary complement, as an exemplary instance to illustrate those similarities. Ideas of Proust on reading are followed by thoughts on reading P...

Proust: A Nano Proof Assistant

It is constructed in stages, some of which are done by students before using it to complete proof exercises, and in parallel with the study of its theoretical underpinnings, including elements of Martin-Löf type theory. The goal is twofold: to...

Intersections in Immanence: Spinoza, Deleuze, Negri

Hypercomputation, Frege, Deleuze: Solving Thomson's Lamp

We present the first known solution to the original supertask, the Thomson Lamp Paradox. Supertasks, or infinite operations, form an integral part of the emerging study of hypercomputation (computation in excess of classical Turing machine capabilities) and are of philosophical interest for the paradoxes they engender. We also offer preliminary resources for classifying computational complexity...
