Designing for emotional engagement
We transform environments into flashpoints for meaningful and dynamic engagement.
Innovation isn’t only about generating exciting new ideas, it also must be met with real human solutions that fuel the desire for continuous emotional interactions and social experiences. We design and build systems that create ongoing engagement and empower deeper human connections.
Elevate your business with original music and custom sound design
The Arts, including music composition and sound art practices, help us humans to make sense of our technologies. At Heath, we think like musicians, artists, and engineers simultaneously. We produce our own custom sound libraries and musical compositions as core content for our ground-breaking experience platforms. Our expertise in this area ensures original content always drives all our projects.
Empowering your business with the latest technology
Our engineers and developers are also artists, and their creative sensibilities drive systems solutions that reach far beyond any mere technology itself. From the beginning concept to the final visceral experience, we create highly customized software and hardware solutions that drive intuitive and reactive systems, especially for sound and musical experiences.
The key for building more astonishing experiences starts here
Storytelling and Experience Design drive our R&D. We begin with discovery: what emotional, social, or impact-driven engagements will best serve our clients’ needs at the time? We then test and develop customized sensor systems, software systems, and multimedia activations that are based on the holistic outcomes that will have the biggest impact.
Democratizing whimsical musical experiences through technology
We have unique expertise in new instrument and new musical interface design at any scale: from handheld devices that empower rich but intuitive musical controls, to large interactive sculptures that become destinations for engagement. We have even transformed buildings and other architectural spaces into new musical interfaces for public and private participation.
We work with the best partners
In order to empower more universal access to musical engagements and other interactive media experiences, we work with museums, hospitals, brands, artists, researchers, architects and other visionaries.
Our core team
We are a team of creative technologists, composers and sound designers, software and hardware developers, UI and UX designers, producers and curators, inventors, artists and dreamers.
