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.

More about Bee Movie

CGSociety brings us a very cool article about the latest DreamWorks production, Bee Movie.

They've shown the challenges faced by the studio, along with their solutions and some magnificent concept art pieces, like the one which illustrates this post - created by Kristen Kawamura.

I usually like Seinfield's humor, and we all know how talented are artists at DreamWorks. I hope these talents together come up with a good movie. Later on this month (when the movie will be released here in Brazil) I'll find out.
