Research on audio description has undergone an enormous development in the last decade. Marina Ramos Caro, one of the speakers at ARSAD 2023, tells us more about emotions, objectivity versus subjectivity, and the role of ideology in audio description. Since 2007, ARSAD has been the meeting point for researchers, industry, trainers, trainees, users, practitioners, regulators, broadcasters, policy makers, social activists, cultural managers and anyone interested in audio description. ARSAD aims to be a thought-provoking event where we can learn about the present of audio description across the globe from multidisciplinary perspectives and where we can get a glimpse of the future of this fascinating access mode.
