ZenFlow Lab
Open research for calmer minds
An open research community for wellbeing. Anyone can take part, and everything we learn is free for everyone. We study how sound, voice, stories and culture — with the help of technology — can help people feel calmer and less stressed.
Research
Sound and the mind
How AI-made music, singing voices and loudness balance affect feelings of calm and naturalness.
Understanding oneself
A cultural study of how people find comfort in personality types and East Asian fortune traditions. We do not claim these traditions are science.
Low-power AI
Running useful AI for people worldwide from a single home computer — energy, time and cost per result.
Latest research
Share what helps you feel calm
Write in your own language. Everyone reads it in theirs — posts are translated automatically into more than 100 languages and appear after a short review.
Listening experiment
Open listening experiments are coming: listen to short clips and rate how calm and natural they feel. Participation will be anonymous — no account, no email, no health questions.
Tools
We plan to publish the checks we use on generated songs: lyric recognition, singer gender drift detection and vocal–accompaniment balance.
Principles
Research only: no sales, payments, advertising or product promotion on this site.
No medical claims: we study comfort and feelings, not treatment.
