Godel influence on Mathematics April 14th, 2006 - 04:36 pm
you write,
We might notice how little impact Goedel's IT has had on mathematics.

Doyle,
Chaitin's Omega which sort of intergrates the laws of thermodynamics into Information theory is a famous outgrowth of Godel. Mainly what are we to make of incompleteness unless we try to consider 'knowing' something.

I have most closely looked at Wittgenstein's notes on Color, which he worked on late before his death. I suppose in the way this thread is unwinding it duplicates my view of how Wittgenstein understood color. He seemed ill grounded in understanding color. As mired in Russel speculation as you indicate he rejected the logic of Cantor and so on.

The cryptic manner in which Wittgenstein expressed himself has always seemed to me in error.
thanks,
Doyle
