Anthony is the Founder of Hooke Audio (www.hookeaudio.com) and inventor of the Hooke Verse, the world's first Bluetooth headphones with built-in 3D audio microphones. The Hooke Verse allows anyone to capture wireless 3D audio directly to any device for under $250.

Anthony's keynote invitation comes on the heels of Hooke Audio's successful summer launch of its first product, the Hooke VERSE. The stylish VERSE is a pair of Bluetooth headphones with incorporated binaural microphones in each earbud that capture audio identically to the way the wearer hears it - spatially, with sound coming from various directions at once. Hooke Audio's integrated app enables users to record mobile 3D Audio, pair it to the smartphone's video camera, and upload the result to social networks like YouTube and Twitter. Hooke Audio's recorded 3D sound can be heard with any stereo headset or speaker configuration. Unlike Surround Sound technology, the Hooke Audio system does not require multiple speakers or special headphones. It is the first microphone of its kind.

"High quality HD video has long been available on various video-streaming devices at an affordable price, but what about audio? Hooke Audio is leading this charge and making high quality 360 audio capture both accessible and affordable to all. We feel the future of audio is headed this way and could not be more excited to have Anthony, a leader in the space, share his findings. On August 24, let us put aside our current work and together listen to how this expert will help us foresee the future of music!" said Gin Tzeng, planning Executive of the Taiwan Beats Conference.

Now in its third year, the Taiwan Beats International Forum invites all those interested in music to open the veil of the future. In 2015, Taiwan Beats focused on mobile App and data applications, 2016 focused on online music streaming/content. This year Taiwan beats will further its reach by hiring both domestic and foreign music industry experts to discuss the variety of new music technology and new issues facing the business. Taiwan Beats is free to attend and open to the public.

"I am honored to be invited to such an innovative and forward thinking conference. It is exciting to see organizations like Taiwan Beats looking to the future of music and recognizing the crucial role that 3D audio will play in creating the future of music."
