biographical notes

I’ve soon expressed special interests in technology as a form of expression. As a teenager, I was offered an Intro to Basic course, in the same decade as home computers, Spectrum, Amiga, and successors were spreading around.

At the same time started to operate local broadcast stations freely. Studios full of young enthusiasts who were learning empirically to became journalists, broadcasters and technicians with the public support. In that enthusiastic effervescence: the guitar, the band, the Tuna (students music group) and the broadcasting occupied me all time and even so trying to graduate visual arts at high school.

In the time that I consider my activity,’s second phase in a professional regime, have dedicated myself to audiovisual technologies, the course of information treatment,
technical production in local radio and recording studios, musical composition fo the stage, theatre and studio projects. I became involved with the medium that developed along with the emergence of digital at a time when I was a full-time teacher in vocational education.

A third part begins in Lisbon, where I’ve worked for the NBP and Fealmar producers, mainly working in outdoor and studio for television fiction, a time that continues later on as a technician for stage arts with show companies and musical projects all over the country, as well in Canada, France, Spain and Brazil. The experience leads me to positions of technical coordination at music festivals, TV shows and technical support for installations and exhibitions.

The fourth phase of my work is defined by the return to the visual arts (although never completely out), completing the Degree in Digital Arts – Multimedia which helps me to expand my plastic creation capacities, now immense in the digital world, where the medias are merged into new forms of expression through electronic incorporation , interactivity and generative computing, an evolution that continues to thrill.
I am currently (2021) completing my Masters in Praticas Artisticas (Artistic Practices) in Visual Arts at the University of Évora where I am studying and testing new multimedia approaches to historical heritage.

This site is mainly a compendium and graphical diary of my creative activity. Notes about devices, tests and productions that I’ve been doing.
