4-5 October 2012 (Amsterdam), Theatre production of Hugh Whitemore's play "Breaking the Code"

Date: 4-5 October 2012 (Amsterdam)
Location: Paderborn, Hamburg, Braunschweig, Amsterdam, and Almere

Breaking the Code is a 1986 play by Hugh Whitemore about the British mathematician Alan Turing whose 100th birthday is being celebrated all over the world during the year 2012 as the Alan Turing Year. Turing, one of the foundational thinkers behind the modern theory of computation, was also a key player in breaking of the German Enigma code at Bletchley Park during World War II. The play thematically links Turing's cryptographic activities with his attempts to grapple with his homosexuality.

The University Players at the Universität Hamburg take their motto of "teaching theatre" very seriously. Under the guidance of experienced actors and directors, new members of the University Players gather practical experience in all areas of the theatre (production, publicity, programs, directing, acting, lighting, sound, costuming, stage design, make-up, etc.). The workshop atmosphere of the University Players has won the group national recognition as a remarkable and unique enterprise.

The University Players will perform Breaking the Code as part of the Alan Turing Year celebrations at the following locations:
14 September 2012: Paderborn, Germany
16 September 2012: Hamburg, Germany
19 September 2012: Braunschweig, Germany
4 October 2012: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
5 October 2012: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
1 November 2012: Almere, The Netherlands

There will be two performances in Amsterdam, one on 4 October, 17:00 in Cafe Oerknal at Science Park Amsterdam which is reserved for students and staff of CWI and FNWI, and the second one on 5 October, 19:30 in the Openbare Bibliotheek Amsterdam open for everyone.

If you plan to attend the Thursday performance, please note that there is a limited number of places, so reservations are required. Please send an email to stating "play Alan Turing". In this case, also indicate whether you stay for dinner afterwards and if you want to eat vegetarian.
No reservation is required for the Friday performance.

10-12 October 2012, Turing in Context II, Brussels, Belgium

Date: 10-12 October 2012
Location: Brussels, Belgium
Deadline: 20 July 2012

The workshop "Turing in Context II" aims at gaining a better and deeper understanding of Turing's work and legacy by bringing together historians, philosophers, logicians and computer scientists who work on topics that are relevant to one of the many fields Turing has contributed to. The focus of this workshop is thus not Turing's work per se, but rather the work of others before, during and after Turing's life up to today which is directly relevant to understanding Turing's work now and then.

Turing in Context II is a trans-disciplinary research workshop meant for experts in the fields touched by Turing's contributions to science, and will allow for submission of contributed papers.

11 October 2012, Spatial Representation and Logic, Lausanne, Switzerland

Date: 11 October 2012
Location: Lausanne, Switzerland

The way in which human beings comprehend their spatial environment has always been at the core of philosophical attention. At the beginning of the 20th century, philosophers started developing formal ontological theories that should capture the structural relationships among things in space, thereby giving rise to qualitative geometries. In more recent years, qualitative geometry has become increasingly popular among computer scientists whose aim is to model human behaviour in a natural environment. Our workshop will focus on both formal ontological theories of spatial representation, and their applications in Computer Science.

11-13 October 2012, Formal Ethics 2012, Munich, Germany

Date: 11-13 October 2012
Location: Munich, Germany
Deadline: 15 June 2012

The application of formal tools from logic and rational choice theory to the analysis of ethical concepts and theories is a rapidly growing field of research. It has shed new light on a variety of concepts that are central to ethical theory, such as freedom, responsibility, values, norms, and conventions. We invite submissions to Formal Ethics 2012, to be held at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy on October 11th to 13th, 2012. The workshop aims to bring together researchers at the crossroads of ethical theory and formal methods.

11-13 October 2012, Time & Temporality in Language and Human Experience (TIMELing 2012), Poland, Lodz

Date: 11-13 October 2012
Location: Poland, Lodz
Deadline: 15 May 2012

The conference will offer a forum for the presentation of multidisciplinary perspectives on the concept of time and its embodied, phenomenological experience as expressed in diverse systems, above all human language, and should thus be of interest to students and researchers in philosophy, anthropology and psychology of time.

Also welcome are scholars who investigate temporal experience, time expressions and categorization in language and literature, including metaphor and figurative language, learning-acquisition of temporal concepts as well as annotation and identification of temporal structures in language corpora. In addition, the organizers hope to attract researchers who propose cognitive, formal and other models of time and time-related dimensions in the framework of event structures.

4-5 October 2012 (Amsterdam), Theatre production of Hugh Whitemore's play "Breaking the Code"

Date: 4-5 October 2012 (Amsterdam)
Location: Paderborn, Hamburg, Braunschweig, Amsterdam, and Almere

Breaking the Code is a 1986 play by Hugh Whitemore about the British mathematician Alan Turing whose 100th birthday is being celebrated all over the world during the year 2012 as the Alan Turing Year. Turing, one of the foundational thinkers behind the modern theory of computation, was also a key player in breaking of the German Enigma code at Bletchley Park during World War II. The play thematically links Turing's cryptographic activities with his attempts to grapple with his homosexuality.

The University Players at the Universität Hamburg take their motto of "teaching theatre" very seriously. Under the guidance of experienced actors and directors, new members of the University Players gather practical experience in all areas of the theatre (production, publicity, programs, directing, acting, lighting, sound, costuming, stage design, make-up, etc.). The workshop atmosphere of the University Players has won the group national recognition as a remarkable and unique enterprise.

The University Players will perform Breaking the Code as part of the Alan Turing Year celebrations at the following locations:
14 September 2012: Paderborn, Germany
16 September 2012: Hamburg, Germany
19 September 2012: Braunschweig, Germany
4 October 2012: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
5 October 2012: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
1 November 2012: Almere, The Netherlands

There will be two performances in Amsterdam, one on 4 October, 17:00 in Cafe Oerknal at Science Park Amsterdam which is reserved for students and staff of CWI and FNWI, and the second one on 5 October, 19:30 in the Openbare Bibliotheek Amsterdam open for everyone.

If you plan to attend the Thursday performance, please note that there is a limited number of places, so reservations are required. Please send an email to stating "play Alan Turing". In this case, also indicate whether you stay for dinner afterwards and if you want to eat vegetarian.
No reservation is required for the Friday performance.

4-5 October 2012 (Amsterdam), Theatre production of Hugh Whitemore's play "Breaking the Code"

Date: 4-5 October 2012 (Amsterdam)
Location: Paderborn, Hamburg, Braunschweig, Amsterdam, and Almere

Breaking the Code is a 1986 play by Hugh Whitemore about the British mathematician Alan Turing whose 100th birthday is being celebrated all over the world during the year 2012 as the Alan Turing Year. Turing, one of the foundational thinkers behind the modern theory of computation, was also a key player in breaking of the German Enigma code at Bletchley Park during World War II. The play thematically links Turing's cryptographic activities with his attempts to grapple with his homosexuality.

The University Players at the Universität Hamburg take their motto of "teaching theatre" very seriously. Under the guidance of experienced actors and directors, new members of the University Players gather practical experience in all areas of the theatre (production, publicity, programs, directing, acting, lighting, sound, costuming, stage design, make-up, etc.). The workshop atmosphere of the University Players has won the group national recognition as a remarkable and unique enterprise.

The University Players will perform Breaking the Code as part of the Alan Turing Year celebrations at the following locations:
14 September 2012: Paderborn, Germany
16 September 2012: Hamburg, Germany
19 September 2012: Braunschweig, Germany
4 October 2012: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
5 October 2012: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
1 November 2012: Almere, The Netherlands

There will be two performances in Amsterdam, one on 4 October, 17:00 in Cafe Oerknal at Science Park Amsterdam which is reserved for students and staff of CWI and FNWI, and the second one on 5 October, 19:30 in the Openbare Bibliotheek Amsterdam open for everyone.

If you plan to attend the Thursday performance, please note that there is a limited number of places, so reservations are required. Please send an email to stating "play Alan Turing". In this case, also indicate whether you stay for dinner afterwards and if you want to eat vegetarian.
No reservation is required for the Friday performance.

25-26 October 2012, The 24th Benelux Conference on Artificial Intelligence (BNAIC 2012), Maastricht, the Netherlands

Date: 25-26 October 2012
Location: Maastricht, the Netherlands
Deadline: 7 June 2012

The main goals of the BNAIC are two-fold:
to bring together AI researchers in the Netherlands and Belgium, as a place to meet and to present research activities.
to present high-quality research results, possibly already published in international conferences or journals.

The format of the BNAIC is therefore a mixture of a meeting place and a forum for good-quality research results. This forms a balance that has proven to be successful in the previous years, as is shown by the high number of participants each year.

Submissions of the following three types are invited: Regular Papers, Compressed Contributions, and Demonstrations & Applications. Submission Deadline: Thursday 7 June 2012
