How to unsubscribe from SydPhil

Send an email to , from the email address that you subscribed in the first place; i.e., the one that currently gets your messages from SydPhil. After a few minutes, you'll get a reply, giving you several options for confirming the request to unsubscribe. One option tells you to click on a link in the email, but if you can't get to the SydPhil information page in the first place, that link won't work. Never fear, the email tells you how to confirm the request by email – in most cases, you just need to hit "Reply". A few minutes later, you should get an email confirming that you have been unsubscribed.

How to change your options in any other way

Send an email to with the subject line "help" (without the quotation marks). After a few minutes, you'll get an email back describing all the email commands.

NB: Please don't send these requests, or any other admin requests, to the address sydphil@arts.usyd.edu.au – mail sent there gets distributed to the entire list.

Sydney eScholarship Repository

The Centre has established a collection within the Sydney eScholarship Repository, which is an initiative of the University of Sydney Library. The Centre's collection at the Repository may be accessed at this link. Currently, it contains a complete set of audio recordings and associated material from three of our meetings, and talks by Huw Price and Jenann Ismael on Truth and Death, respectively.

Audio and slides

MP3 recordings and some texts from our highly successful recent meeting on Expressivism, Pluralism and Representationalism are now available here. Recordings and slides from eight earlier meetings (since 2005) are also available at that site.

Older recordings

• Professor Sir Anthony Leggett gave a public lecture in the Vice-Chancellor's Distinguished Lecture series, 25 July 2005, on the topic: Does the everyday world really obey quantum mechanics?
  Professor Leggett is John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Professor of Physics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is a world leader in the theory of low-temperature physics, and shared the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physics for his pioneering work on superfluidity. He visited the Centre in July 2005, as Keynote Speaker at our Workshop on Time-Symmetric Approaches to Quantum Mechanics.
