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:

You probably know PSYOP. At least you have seen some of their awesome productions.

Yesterday I got a great tip from Marck. PSYOP holds a Vimeo channel to show their behind-the-scenes videos.

There you can watch some jaw-dropping videos like this:

Man... I've spent hours watching those videos again and again.
