About

I'm an Animation Professor at LUCA School of Arts, campus C-mine in Genk, Belgium. I teach at the Re:Anima Joint Master in Animation and I'm a senior researcher at the Inter-Actions Research Unit. My research interests include philosophy of Technics, power relations inscribed in and reinforced by technical objects, and decolonial perspectives in animation. Previously, I was an Animation Professor at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), in Brazil. MFA and PhD by the Graduate Program in Arts at EBA/UFMG. I'm also a free software advocate, animator, rigger and I also like to code. You can see some of my works and know a bit more about me at:

Old Blog

Yes, I had a blog. Haven't updated it since 2011. Anyway, if you need something from there I have kept backwards compatibility and you can read it below.

Enchanted homages to Disney classics

Saw today an interesting article noticing the Blu-Ray and DVD realease for Enchanted.

Specifically for the Blu-Ray disc (which I won't be able to watch until the player prices start to fall, heh), there is an extra feature that shows some homages made to classic Disney animations. While some are pretty obvious when you watch the film, there are some there aren't. Cool read. =)
