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 Genk Research Unit, in the 'Critical reflections of and through animation' cluster. My research interests include philosophy of Technics, power relations inscribed in and reinforced by technical objects, and decolonial perspectives in animation.

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:

Ey Virgílio, great blog!!!!
Wile E. Coyote, well, my favorite cartoon character of all times. And obiously, the great Chuck Jones, the master of masters, the king of the animation.
I recommend you a couple of shorts from Chuck Jones, one is "The Dot and the Line", and the other "Now hear this", an experimental well done masterpiece.

See you and congratulations again for the blog.

David,
