Keynote 1.
Auditorium Liselotte Lyngsø, futurist & founding partner at Future Navigator .
Spot the Future of Sound & Shape It We all have a futurist inside of us.
What really matters is whether you can and will shape it.
Liselotte will start by looking at the future trends in sounds – those that will be driving markets and decisions soon.
She, will then help you develop the mindset of a futurist so that you can see the sound trends specific to your audience or customers .
She will give you techniques so that you may see opportunities and creative solutions where others see problems and challenge s.
It is about training your future muscles, practicing trend-spotting and translating your new-found knowledge into perspective s that create direction and value.
In this session you will learn many new techniques and methods to become your own futurist. Read More 10.15-10.45.

Auditorium Track 1 - Sound and Health.
The assumption that the environment is an essential part in recovery from disease has gained increasing attention among healthcare professionals.
Scientific findings showing that environmental sources, such as air quality, lightening, sound, music and architecture can improve recovery and well-being in clinical settings have led to new ways of thinking about the lay-out of health facilities.
Music intervention in particular have received extensive scientific interest.
The session will focus on state of the art research into how music can be used to improve health and general well-being.

Seminar room Track 2 - AI & Sound.
AI, and not least Deep AI, are paving their way into sound applications and are changing the sound application landscape dramatically, including the products and solutions from sound-based companies.
Sound is becoming computing intensive.
Rather than just being able to offer high quality sound reproduction, Deep AI e.g.
offers the options of improving poor original sound almost beyond imagination or making other sophisticated uses of sound.
The session focusses on three interesting applications already in use or to enter use in a foreseeable future in Danish sound-based companies and will be presented by researchers and engineers already deeply involved in employing the AI techniques in emerging products and solutions for future markets.

Keynote 2.
Auditorium Kim G.
Hansen, Podcast and radioproducer at Radio 24syv, Board member of Center for Podcasting.
The importance of sound quality in next-generation podcasting We live in an age of audio.
At last count, there were 700,000 podcasts worldwide competing for our attention.
And the numbers of people listening are rising sharply.
What do podcast offer that we don’t find in other media.
It’s a democratic space, and new tech has allowed everyone to produce and publish.
But production value, and especially sound quality is important if you want to rise above this vast ocean of pods.
This talk will outline the many forms and concepts emerging now in podcasting.
And focus on why sound quality is crucial when you want to engage your listeners, and get them to keep listening.

Keynote 3.
Auditorium Jarnail Chudge, Design and Innovation Architect at Microsoft AI + Research.
Adventures with Microsoft Soundscape Microsoft Soundscape uses 3D spatial audio to promote a person’s mobility and independence by enhancing their awareness of their surroundings by calling out landmarks and points of interest from where they actually are.
As such, Soundscape can be considered a map which is delivered in 3D sound to augment a person’s experience through audio.
Soundscape can function as your main wayfinding system, but it can also work in the background and provide you with effortless ambient awareness.
This provides a greater sense of empowerment and choice and allows each and every one of us to be able enjoy the outdoors with greater confidence and less stress.
This session will go into what Soundscape is and how it works, cover the lessons we have learnt since release and describe the various ways in which people are using it every day across a range of different activities.
