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:

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.

2007-Nov-05: Blender Pro
Blender Pro

Tomorrow (Oct, 6th) will happen the first Blender Pro: a Brazilian Blender Conference. It's a good sign for the growing Brazilian Blender user base.

It will be held in São Leopoldo - RS. If you happen to be around, I think it's a good place to go. =)

Unfortunately I'm not close to there. Actually I live more than a thousand miles from there, and it's pretty hard to convince my boss to let me go there. =P
