Summer University - Descrying the World in Physics

Philosophy of Physics

Dunja and me are for the next two weeks in Budepast participating at the Summer University - Descrying the World in Physics.
We got a nice hotel with swimming pool 8). The courses are quite interesting so far with a lot of room for discussion.

Yesterday we had some introductory overview and a lecture (advertizement) for physicalism by David Papineau, which didn’t in any way convince me ;)

Tim Maudlin gave a good lecture (with his intense no-matter-how-tired-you-are-you’ll-not-fall-asleep-style) on the basics of Newtonian and “relativistic” geometry.
