spacer Jeremy Hunt likes to do neat things with computers and art.  His education and practice in such things has focused on fiddling with digital instruments and digitally expanded performance spaces. In the past he has been affiliated with the Berkeley Center for New Media (CNM) and the Center for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT).  He is the founder of the Rummage House™ Group, which focuses on developing projects in music, media, and publishing.

His music is informed by a broad base of art and technology and is drawn from his interests which are eclectic and wide ranging, including: musical design, simplicity, interactive systems, baroque organology, the theory of musical media, free culture & free software, machine learning & artificial intelligence, psychoacoustics, media activism, improvisation, the human voice, tuning theory & temperaments, and electro-acoustic luthiery.  He also likes to play the guitar and harmonica and sing old folky hymn tunes.

He holds a PhD in music with an emphasis in new media from UC Berkeley. He has studied composition with Edmund Campion, Jorge Liderman, Cindy Cox, Josh Levine, Carlos Sanchez-Gutierrez, and Ron Caltabiano. He has also studied psychoacoustics and computer music with David Wessel, improvisation with Myra Melford, and classical voice with David Gordon.

He is also a dedicated pedagogue and has taught music theory, musicianship, and sight singing to students of all ages and in many different venues such as the Peninsula Girls Chorus, Woodside School, The Nueva School, UC Berkeley, and the Jazzschool.  His love of teaching music lead to the founding of studymusicfree.com where he regularly posts lessons on music theory as well as other topics.
