Arts Presenters: Dawn Stoppiello and Mark Coniglio

Dawn Stoppiello and Mark Coniglio are the artistic co-directors of Troika Ranch, which creates live performances, interactive installations and digital films, creating a hybrid of dance/theater/media. Troika Ranch does extensive education outreach, and regularly teaches Live-Interactive (Live-I) workshops to demonstrate the software and hardware they have developed for artists.

In this interview, Dawn and Mark talk about the influence of Morton Subotnick and his contemporaries on their work, harnessing the volume of information coming from contemporary society, and the recent evolution of the relationship between performers and technology.

This interview is part of an ongoing series with the Association of Performing Arts Presenters.
