Kenneth Jon Barwise (June 29, 1942 – March 5, 2000) was an American mathematician, philosopher and logician who proposed some fundamental revisions to the way that logic is understood and used.
Born in Independence, Missouri to Kenneth T. and Evelyn, he was a precocious child.
A pupil of Solomon Feferman at Stanford University, Barwise started his research in infinitary logic. After positions as assistant professor at the Universities of Yale and Wisconsin, during which time his interests turned to natural language, he returned to Stanford in 1983 to direct the Center for the Study of Language and Information. He began teaching at Indiana University in 1990. He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1999.
Barwise contended that, by being explicit about the context in which a proposition is made, the situation, many problems in the application of logic can be eliminated. He sought ... to understand meaning and inference within a general theory of information, one that takes us outside the realm of sentences and relations between sentences of any language, natural or formal. In particular, he claimed that such an approach resolved the liar paradox. He made use of Peter Aczel's non-well-founded set theory in understanding "vicious circles" of reasoning.
Alan Clayson (born 3 May 1951, Dover, Kent, England) is a singer-songwriter, who was popular in the late 1970s as leader of Clayson and the Argonauts (who reformed in 2005). He is also a noted music biographer, journalist and solo entertainer.
Clayson has written for a wide range of publications, including The Guardian, Record Collector, Ink, Mojo, Mediaeval World, Folk Roots, Guitar, Hello!, Drummer, Rock 'N' Reel, The Sunday Times, Rhythm, The Independent, Daily Telegraph, Ugly Things and, as a teenager, the Schoolkids OZ. He has also scripted and appeared as a commentator on various radio and television broadcasts. Clayson's compositions have been recorded by many musicians, including Dave Berry (in whose backing group Clayson played keyboards in the mid 1980s), Stairway, Jane Relf, The Electronic Males and Joy Tobing, winner of Indonesian Idol. He has also worked with the Portsmouth Sinfonia, Wreckless Eric, Twinkle, The Yardbirds, The Pretty Things, Mungo Jerry and Screaming Lord Sutch among others.
