I write code, play piano, and turn the occasional
“what if?” into something real.
I’m William Hu, also known as Jingwen Hu / 胡竞文. I like the point where a small idea becomes something you can actually use, hear, or play with.
Sometimes that means building an AI-powered tool. Sometimes it means sitting at the piano, editing a video, or making something with other people. I enjoy the process of figuring things out, especially together.
The best part?
There’s always more to learn.
A few things I’ve built and worked on. Different forms, same instinct: explore an idea and make it useful.
A space where sound and software meet. I co-created Resona, an adaptive music application that combines continuously generated audio with an AI agent for personalizing the experience.
What if a browser felt like a desktop you could build on? WhaOS is my AI-powered web operating system, with built-in tools and an app generator that turns prompts into new experiences.
My love of music, turned into a playful browser game. Watch the chef, learn the rhythm, and slice ingredients on the beat. The soundtrack is synthesized live, right in the browser.
A continuous sound space for relaxation and focus. Synthesized noise, binaural beats, and algorithmic instruments adapt to feedback without interrupting playback.
An independent bilingual learning site for CAICP preparation, with structured lessons, interactive labs, practice, and a mistake notebook. Progress stays in the learner’s browser.
An Exabyte application for managing dorm passes, approvals, and sign-ins. It brings a multi-step process into one role-based system with live updates.
My music projects explore sound, personalization, and everyday wellbeing; they do not establish clinical outcomes.
I founded Exabyte Technologies around a simple idea: technology should be safer, more convenient, and more approachable. It’s a home for projects that bring that idea into everyday life.
Our public work spans music experiences, useful software, printing tools, and websites. The projects here belong to the organization’s portfolio; shared work is credited as shared work.
The things I make are only part of the picture. These are a few things I enjoy just as much.
Away from the screen, I enjoy spending time at the piano. Music is something I enjoy playing, listening to, and exploring through code.
A different kind of keyboard.Soccer and basketball are a good reason to step outside, move around, and enjoy being part of a team.
Less screen. More movement.I like making and editing videos: finding a sequence, a cut, or a small detail that makes an idea come across.
A new way to tell an idea.Chess, UNO, and board games bring out another side of my curiosity. A little strategy and good company go a long way.
Good company. Good games.More public projects, experiments, and shared work. Follow a thread that interests you.
