ABSTRACT

Our aim is to present a personal view of Gdel's incompleteness. We will focus on interesting/natural concrete independent sentences, on the source of incompleteness, and on how common the incompleteness phenomenon is. Some open questions will be briefly stated.

Speaker: Cristian Calude
A lifelong researcher in algorithmic information theory and a close friend of Gregory Chaitin, Dr. Calude has written and edited dozens of books and hundreds of articles on computability and incompleteness.

This is discussed in the following google Tech Talk, "Incompleteness: a personal perspective" from Cristian Claude

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYjmiT422yQ

He discusses, amongst other things, the work done on computing this uncomputable number, and why that isn't a contradiction. I think one of the people involved is in the audience.
