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:

Snow White - 70th anniversary

Yesterday (21/12) was the 70th anniversary of the all time Disney Classic Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs.

The family of the Disney animator Clair Weeks have donated to ASIFA Holywood Animation Archive a scrapbook about the movie, which will be soon available digitally. Saw it on Cartoon Brew.
