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. 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.

Toy Story 3 teaser trailer

Yesterday Pixar's Up had its premiere all over the world. Except in Brasil =P

Insted of watching the teaser trailer for Toy Story 3 in the theater, I had to visit Cartoon Brew to know about that. The new movie will be released in June, 2010. This time I hope Disney Brasil doesn't mess things up again (pun intended). ;)

Oh... and case you didn't notice, Blender 2.49 is released! Go download it while it's hot :)
