armchair investigations: Negation as an interpretation shifting operator
http://armchair7.blogspot.com/2011/03/negation-as-interpretation-shifting.html

The semantics of the negation symbol is usually given as follows:. M = 1 iff [ φ. M = 1 iff [ φ. M* = 1, where M* is just like M except it assigns 1 - M( φ. As far as I can tell, that is a perfectly fine semantics for negation in propositional logic. What do you mean when you say that M* is just like M except wrt phi?
