The Liar Bell
The Sage of Tennessee is trapped in a house full of Hungarians who just don't understand about Schelling.
Which gives occasion for a search on 'Hungarian Philosophers', of which there are many, none whose work is more intriguing than András Ferenc. Thinking to uncover a refreshingly robust practical approach to the philosophy of logic, readers will be frustrated that "Russell's Paradox with Nails and String" remains as yet untranslated. But "Feedback and Paradox" gives precise instructions on how to build an electronic liar paradox by modifying your doorbell. Along with the other spreadsheet-based experimenta, this work definitely constitutes a vindication of Urbanomic's call for a programme of Philosophical Research and Development.
