Troika Ranch offers three workshops in 2008 in NYC. [1]
CLASSES:

June 14-18, MIMA (for moving image media artists)
June 23-27, June 30-July 4, Live-I (for performing artists)
October 25-29, MIMA (for moving image media artists)

MIMA workshops use technological tools developed by Troika Ranch primarily focusing on Coniglio's Isadora® software, a graphic programming environment that provides interactive control over digital media, with special emphasis on the real-time manipulation of digital video. The participants learn to use their movements and vocalizations to interactively control computer-based media, such as sound synthesizers, video playback devices and theatrical lighting.
The Live-I workshop is a two-week intensive for performing artists. Once the technological
tools have been demonstrated, the students are lead through a series of games, discussions and experiments related to the integration of media in live performance. Under the guidance of the instructors, the participants have time to work on creative studies of their own.
