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:

Inside Pixar II

Yeah... I know I posted a video showing inside Pixar a while back. Sorry, but I just can't get enough of looking at that place.

One day I'll see that with my own eyes... :)

Oh, man... I hail you. ^_^ It's been a dream for me to be with Pixar, even just step on its floors. Wow. This will indeed inspire me to do better and reach at that point. ^_^
