Everything is Waves with Wilson Brown, Founder & ECD, Antfood
About the Presentation
We sing before we speak. Sound is one of our earliest ways of expressing emotion—so why do we so often treat it as an afterthought?
From prehistoric proto-instruments to the AI future, Wilson Brown traces the ways humans have used sound to move us, influence emotion, and shape our experiences. Drawing from his own journey across music, composition, and sound for experience design, Wilson connects the science and magic of sound to nature, business, technology, and the human experience.
Along the way, he’ll get into physics, physiology, cycles, and vibration—and make the case that understanding waves might just be one of the best ways to understand the world around us.
