About Me

After cutting his jazz teeth playing with students of the Oberlin Conservatory and studying double bass with Peter Dominguez while taking classes at the college, Spencer moved to New York's Columbia University to study electrical engineering. At Columbia Spencer started moving more into electronics, augmenting his bass with sensors and adding a laptop to his performance rig. He is currently interested in developing new modes of electroacoustic performance and human/computer interaction. Spencer is also a member of Capillary Action, a Philadelphia-based collective under the direction of Jonathan Pfeffer who performs Pfeffer's blend of avant-jazz-metal-afro-cuban experimentalism.
