Stefano is the author of "Rendering Revolution". The project was presented at the MAXXI National Art Museum, Rome June 12, 2017; an “augmented music” experience in which music, painting, dance and video art are blended together in a spatial setting. The project aims to be a new synthesis and fusion among different art forms. A modern melodrama, in the most extended sense of the term, a non linear process in which the result is superior to the sum of the parts and in which each component - music, dance, painting and video art - concurs in creating an augmented reality that engrosses the spectator on a multi sensory level. "Rendering Revolution", presented by the National Academy of Santa Cecilia, took two years of planning and has received the honorable mention award from Santa Cecilia Conservatory for its exceptional scientific and artistic achievement.

He is married with the actress Elena Sofia Ricci.
