Vichy is a charming relaxing thermal city at the middle of France, developed by Napoleon III in the second half of the 19th century, who in particular created beautiful parks with species of trees from all over the world. Vichy, in the Duchy of Bourbon, a region full of castles, is a small city, where it is possible to go everywhere just by walking. The event will take place at the university campus nearby the Celestins spring, the banks of the Allier river (where it is possible to swim) and the city center. June is a very nice time to be in Vichy, there are lots of animations, including on June 21 a very lively musical day celebrating summertime. https://www.vichy-destinations.fr/la-destination/ Looking forward to seeing you in Vichy in June 2018 Jean-Yves Beziau (University of Brazil, Rio de Janeiro and Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris) Christophe Rey (University Clermont Auvergne, CNRS, LIMOS) Organizers of UNILOG'2018 ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------- U N I L O G - World Congress and School on Universal Logic - U N I LO G Montreux 2005, Xi'an 2007, Lisbon 2010, Rio 2013, Istanbul 2015, Vichy 2018 http://www.uni-log.org
