Curved Light is the audio-visual project of Peter Tran and Deirdre Smith, utilizing the modular synthesizer for both sound and vision. Their compositions and performances move fluidly between styles and moods - from soaring harmonies to tight, beat-driven sequences, serene imagery to synth abstraction and noise. They aim to absorb audiences in full sensory, cinematic experiences that explore the dualities of order and chaos, action and automation, permanence and the ephemeral.

Since its inception in 2015, Curved Light has released numerous albums and played hundreds of shows, including with S U R V I V E, Suzanne Ciani, Lower Dens, and Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith.
