Music, health, and AI are coming together to create groundbreaking solutions for physical and emotional wellbeing. In his DLD Future Hub presentation, HealthTunes founder Walter Werzowa shares his personal journey in these fields, beginning with his realization of music’s power during his son’s recovery from severe illness. “Music is powerful and not only moves us to tears – it brings us joy and health”, he says.
Reflecting on his journey from creating iconic audio branding like the iconic Intel jingle to composing with Beethoven through AI, Werzowa emphasizes the power of music as “organized sound” that can touch emotions and heal the body. He recalls working with cutting-edge tools, from Bell Labs to AI-driven music composition, and explores how “creative accidents” and human intuition remain central to the process, even in a technology-driven world.
HealthTunes, Werzowa’s latest innovation, uses AI and music to address health challenges such as anxiety, stress, and even epilepsy. He explains how binaural beats, a psychoacoustic phenomenon, are embedded into music to synchronize brainwaves and promote healing. “We reduced anxiety, claustrophobia, just with music and binaural beats”, Werzowa says.
