Dear Students, Speakers, Contributors, dear Icon Interested Parties,

Unfortunately, we have to cancel this year's ICON for organisational reasons 😔

We are very sorry for all those who were already looking forward to it and especially for those who submitted an abstract.
Thank you for your interest!

We hope to hold ICON again next year.

Until then, stay healthy and enjoy the last days of summer ☀️

His 💻talk will be on
*November, 17* (20:00 CET).
It will be a perfect introduction to the following two conference days.

"Language is everywhere. You can see it (e.g. lettering, plant communication), feel it (e.g. Braille...) hear it (e.g. birgsong), smell it (e.g. animal communication), use it, change it.

The term encompasses many meanings and media through which information is communicated. As an umbrella term, language appears and is understood in a variety of ways, therefore encouraging research in different fields of analysis with their various related issues."
