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.

Browsing by Yafaray website I saw that user Alvaro Luna (Samo) has made available his presentation on Yafaray.

Perspective machine by Albrecht Dürer, The Painter's Manual, 1525.

It's an amazing content, which tells not only about the program itself, but the concepts around a renderer. That's excellent for everyone who ever wondered what happens when you press F12. :D
