Through numerous performances in a wide range of spaces, contexts and collaborations, they have developed a unique brand of highly amplified dialogue, which is as intimate as it is equal amounts raw and entirely exposed. The duo have toured extensively across five continents since 2015, joining together their two individual voices into a distinct language that delves beyond the borders of the corporeal elements of un-processed voice and trombone, while utilizing analog electronics to offset their hyper extended physical play.Www.Beamsplitter.OrgAdam Campbell is an artist and musician working with cybernetically inspired performance systems.
