Auti-Melody — North-Holland, The Netherlands – (2023)
The goal of Autimelody as a project was to build an app that utilises music as a universal language to facilitate communication between carers and individuals with a strong mental disability. Through personal experience Alice Haywood noticed the potential that music had for communication, seeing how simple tunes could open up a pathway of communication, and act as a simple tool for non-violent communication. Alongside roommate and close friend Iva, they decided to embark on this journey and create something tangible to make a difference in this sector.
