International Conference on Auditory Display (ICAD)

The International Conference on Auditory Display (ICAD) is a global gathering where researchers, designers, and artists share advances in how sound can be used to communicate information. The conference focuses on how auditory cues—such as tones, sounds, and music—can help people understand data, navigate environments, or enhance user experiences. It covers areas likesonification (turning data into sound), sound design, and auditory interfaces. ICAD promotes interdisciplinary collaboration to improve ways sound can be used effectively, making complex data more accessible and supporting innovative applications across different fields.
