Hierarchy Of Feasts is an improvisational audiovisual ensemble who layer homemade instruments, custom software and cryptic synthesizers to explore deeply textured sonic realms. They have been playing together since 2018. The group is composed of Joshue Ott, Nathan Wheeler, and Todd Polenberg.

Joshue Ott is a New York-based performer and software designer. Ott is the creator of superDraw, an instrument for live cinematic audiovisual improvisations with which he has performed at venues ranging from Mutek to Carnegie Hall. He also creates apps, including the popular Thicket, 3draw, snowDrift, Pitch Painter with Morton Subotnick, and the Variant series.

Nathan Wheeler is an improvising composer and electronic musician from Boulder, CO. Their work has been showcased at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Judson Church, MoMA PS1, Mana Contemporary, and various festivals and venues around the world

Todd Polenberg is an award-winning artist, engineer, and electronic musician who works with light and sound to create sublime otherworldly experiences. His work has been shown at Ars Electronica, Science Gallery Dublin, Mysteryland, Burning Man and featured in Forbes and Forward magazines.

The music of Kenneth Kirschner is situated at the intersection of contemporary classical composition and experimental electronic music. His work is characterized by a close integration of acoustic and electronic sound sources; a strong focus on harmony, pattern, and long-form development; and experimentation with techniques such as chance procedures, indeterminacy, and microtonality within a digital context. An advocate of open source music, he releases all of his work freely online through his website, kennethkirschner.com, which represents a complete archive of all his published music from the 1980s to present; his work has also been released by record labels such as Greyfade, Sub Rosa, 12k, Line, Leerraum, and/OAR, and Room40. Kirschner was a 2015 artist in residence at Eyebeam, a 2016 artist in residence in Times Square, and a 2019 NYSCA/NYFA Fellow in Music/Sound. He lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
