Project description
Creative Concept of Xinyuan (Mind Weave)
Xinyuan (Mind Weave) is a healing music work exploring the digital age. Its creative core originates from a collaborative experiment between AI and human consciousness: we input emotional keywords such as "tranquility", "profundity", and "hope" into the AI music tool Suno, which then generated a series of inspirational music snippets featuring the piano as the lead instrument. Building on these snippets, we carefully arranged the structure and enriched the instrumental parts with music therapy theory as the blueprint, ultimately creating the complete Xinyuan (Mind Weave).
Structurally, the work is divided into three organically connected movements. Each movement corresponds precisely to a core healing frequency, with natural sound samples and white noise incorporated to systematically guide the listener through an inner journey:
Movement 1: Purge – 396Hz
The movement begins with the 396Hz frequency, known as the "tone of liberation". In sound therapy, it is specifically used to clear fear and guilt from the subconscious. The music is underpinned by a deep handpan and atmospheric soundscapes, creating a safe sound field—like a deep "formatting" for the inner self—to make space for subsequent transformation.
Movement 2: Flow – 417Hz
Next comes the 417Hz frequency, the "tone of change". With the piano and harp as lead instruments, this movement aims to break down old emotional patterns and promote energy flow. Following the clearing in the previous movement, the music becomes more dynamic and fluid. The agile melody generated by AI is further developed here, symbolizing the blocked emotions restarting their smooth circulation and renewal.
Movement 3: Return – 528Hz
The final movement centers on the famous 528Hz frequency, the "tone of love and repair", which is associated with inner harmony and DNA repair. The melody becomes broad and warm, weaving a picture full of hope. It symbolizes the soul, after undergoing purification and flow, returning to its original state of wholeness and peace, and regaining inner strength.

Xinyuan (Mind Weave) is not only an art of sound, but also a precise psychological experience inspired by AI and guided by scientific theories. It proves that technology and humanity can be deeply integrated to jointly build a "digital sanctuary" that the tired modern soul can reach at any time.
