Epistemology is the study of how we know things (Anglo-Saxon meaning) or the study of how scientific knowledge is arrived at and validated (francophone conception). To adopt an epistemological stance is to commit oneself to render an account of what constitutes knowledge or in procedural terms, to render an account of when one can claim to know something. An epistemological theory imposes constraints on the interpretation of human cognitive interaction with the world. It goes without saying that different epistemological theories will have more or less restrictive criteria to distinguish what constitutes knowledge from what is not. If information is a pre-condition for knowledge acquisition, giving an account of how knowledge is acquired should impact our comprehension of information and communication as concepts. While a lot of work has been in Information & Communication Sciences on the definition of these concepts, less research has attempted to establish explicit links between differing theoretical conceptions of these concepts and the underlying epistemological stances. This colloquium will gather eminent and renowned specialists from different countries and with different backgrounds to discuss how they and their corresponding disciplines perceive information & communication, the relationship these two concepts share with knowledge and how our comprehension of these two concepts affects interdisciplinary research. The colloquium is one of the events planned in the context of the EPICIC project funded by the ISCC (Institut des Sciences de la Communication du CNRS). The EPICIC project is led by an international consortium of researchers from the following institutions: ELICO-Lyon3; iSchool of the University of Berkeley; iSchool of the University of Illinois; The L2C2 research team of the Institute for Cognitive Sciences, CNRS-Lyon). The colloquium also received some funding by the University of Lyon3. *Invited speakers* ------------------------ 1- Bruno Bachimont, Scientific Advisor, at the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel (INA) and Head of Research at the Université de Technologie de Compiègne, France. 2- Søren Brier, Professeur Semiotics, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark. 3- Jean Davallon, Professor of Information and Communication Sciences, Université d'Avignon, France. 4- Birger Hjorland, Professor, Royal School of Information science, Copenhagen, Denmark 5- Thomas Dousa, Doctoral fellow, Graduate School of Library and Information Science at the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana, USA. 6- Luciano Floridi, UNESCO Chair in Information and Computer Ethics and Profesor at the University of Oxford and Hertfordshire, UK.? 7- Sylvie Leleu-Merviel, Professor of Information and Communication Sciences, Université de Lille-Nord and Scientific Advisor for the Ministry of Research and Higher Education, France. 8- Ira Noveck, Research Director, of the Laboratoire sur le Language, le Cerveau et la Cognition (L2C2) Institut des Sciences Cognitives-CNRS, Lyon, France. *Registration* ------------ *Fee: 30EUR* Registration is effective only if accompanied by payment. ?Registration closes on 25th march 2011? .The Malraux Amphitéâtre has a limited seating capacity so we advice you not to wait until the last days to register.
