Spencer "MINQ" Carter (they/them, born Baton Rouge, LA) is a Sound
Artist, DJ and Music Producer living, loving and creating in Berlin. In
2009, MINQ was swept away by turbulent hurricane winds and transported
to New Orleans where they started a new life. Upon arrival they
disguised themselves as a university student but after years of drinking
swamp water in secret, MINQ became a creature of the night; Organizing
concerts and events at the historic Preservation Jazz Hall. In 2016
MINQ's eyes grew wide, skin hot and sticky, and suddenly found
themselves in the DJ booths of Berlin's queer night life. In this new
chapter, MINQ also began to produce music and create sound design for
performances at places such as Ballhaus Naunynstraße, Sophiensaele and
House of Statistics. Their current mission is to create spaces for
mindfulness practices centered on QTBIPoC through their sonic-somatic
workshop series, Sonic Utopias | Research Lab.
