What is really possible?

Thomas Müller will give talk about “(Quantum) randomness as limited indeterminism”.

Thomas Müller will give talk about “Toward a formal model of dispositions and persistence conditions. The power of intensional predication”.

Thomas Müller will give talk about “Dualismus: Eine Frage der Logik?”

The conference “Real Possibilities, Indeterminism and Free Will” will take place at the University of Konstanz, Germany on 18-21 March 2015.

The conference will mark the final phases of two ongoing projects at the University of Konstanz:

What is really possible? Philosophical explorations in branching-history based real modality
funded by a VIDI grant of the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO),

and

Indeterminism Ltd. An intervention on the free will debate
funded by a Starting Grant of the European Research Council (ERC).

The first project centers on formal and metaphysical aspects of real possibilities for the future. The second project centers on the role that the open future can play for understanding agency in our indeterministic world. The goal of this conference is to provide a forum for discussing those two lines of research and their intersection.
