ABOUT THE SPEAKERS
Tom Thum - BeatboxerHip-hop musician Tom Thum whirls together beatboxing, performance and an array of mouthsounds.
Why you should listen
Coming out of the small Brisbane, Australia, hip-hop scene, Tom Thum has become a world presence with his unhuman beatboxing sound. In 2005, he and Joel Turner won the team battle in the World Beatbox Championships, and Thum came second at the Scribble Jam Beatbox Battles, America’s most prestigious hip-hop competition, in 2006. He's a cast member in the hip-hop/circus performance troupe Tom Tom Crew, appearing on Broadway and London's West End.

Matthew Broadhurst - Ear, nose and throat surgeon
Matthew Broadhurst is an ear, nose and throat surgeon based in Brisbane, Australia.
Why you should listen
Matthew Broadhurst is Australia's first fellowship-trained laryngeal surgeon practicing in laryngology and voice restoration. His practice primarily involves management of voice and throat disorders and sleep-disordered breathing, including snoring and sleep apnea.
Broadhurst has a unique ability to provide assessment and management strategies for patients with voice disorders -- including hoarseness, vocal cord paralysis, throat cancer and more -- that are beyond the scope of general ear, nose and throat surgeons. He worked under the direct instruction of Steven Zeitels, a world leader and innovator in laryngeal surgery and voice restoration who was recently acknowledged at the Grammy's as the surgeon who restored the multi-platinum, award-winning artist Adele.
In Brisbane, Broadhurst performs groundbreaking specialized laryngeal surgical techniques using both 4K ultra-high definition microscopy and full high-definition video stroboscopy. He completed his Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery at Flinders University in 1996, and subsequently obtained his Fellowship of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery in 2005.
