What's your sonic personality, your sono type? - Evan Benway

Humans, are amazing at recognizing patterns even when they're not there. We looked up at the stars and we saw all kinds of stories being told to us. So, yeah, it's a generally it's a really good principle to make sure that you're using generative sound that's evolving, that's changing. - Evan Benway

There's huge diversity in how people respond to sensory stimuli. So within a workspace, we try to, create a soundscape that's going to work well for this diverse group of people. We use concepts like zoning. - Evan Benway

Increasingly, as we deploy more and more generative sound and as it becomes more and more realistic to do truly real-time generative sound of these types of nature soundscapes, you can introduce a lot more ability to really personalize things. - Evan Benway

Sound and sounds are a crazy powerful sensory input, with the power to transport us in time, change our mood, distract, and enhance attention. The problem is, we all react differently, based on our personality, the context of the task, and dynamic factors impacting that moment.

Evan and team Moodsonic are using the power of sound to make us more productive, in shared built environments, from workplaces, medical facilities, and even schools. Turning sound from the number one distraction in shared spaces, to a force for better mental health, physical health, and productivity, what ever that means in the context of the moment.

Short sample from a very fun and informative exploration with Evan.
