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:

Blender Animation Book

I've written a book about Rigging and Animation in Blender for Packt Publishing. You can get the files here.

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.

2008-Apr-26: Blender introduction course TODAY at FLISOL

Yeah, I know that this is VERY near and it was scheduled almost a month ago. Shame on me not to say this before.

Unfortunately I've been with so much work to do these last days that I've been a bit away from blogging.

Fortunately, though, one of these works is a very cool commercial animation that I'll soon show you. =)

So... if you happen to be in Goiânia today (26/04), I'll be giving a short course on Blender at FLISOL (Something like "Latin-American Free Software Instalation Festival"). =)
