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:

I've written a book about Rigging and Animation in Blender for Packt Publishing. You can get the files here.
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.
Yay!! :) Run and download the newest Blender version, full of cool features like the ones made during Apricot project and Grease Pencil. I'm happy to see they used my image to illustrate the Grease Pencil feature! It's on the features list. :) UPDATE: got on Allan Brito's website this demo video of the GLSL and all the game engine goodies. It's good to stress that everything on that video is computed in REAL TIME! :D
