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:

2010-Jul-13: Annecy shorts 2010

Every year, the students from Gobelins make awesome animation shorts specially for the Annecy festival, which happened a month ago.

If you didn't watch them yet, they are available at Gobelins' channel on YouTube.

Today I've found this making of Chaman, by Vincent Nghiem, one of the students who worked on this film. Great stuff:
