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. 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:

I've written a book about Rigging and Animation in Blender for Packt Publishing. You can get the files here.
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.
We normally don't see animations like Greed coming out of Animation Mentor very often. What we are used to see is a collection of funny or sweet short animations. Fortunately the animator Alli Sadegiani has proven that theme variations are also welcome. Very skillfully animated, with some great post production and great camera use, I strongly recommend you to watch it: P.S.: Yeah... I'm back from AnimaMundi and Blender Pro. Everything was very cool, and soon I'll talk more about it here. :)
totally totally agree with you Virgilio..for me its one of the finest short to come out of AM so far...terrific inspirational work so skillfully and beautifully executed !
