About Me

I am a Guatemalan-born 'global mutt', of Spanish descent and Scottish ties, and have spent the last 8 years in the Uk.I've had a dabble at animation. I work with my friend Krzysztof Bierski, and have so far produced two pieces.The most recent is a comission by Saatchi & Saatchi to do a short animation to an interview by famous New York designer Stephan Sagmeister for a D&AD campaign.This is our first animation, it was commended and featured in the D&AD annual, and screened at Glastonbury Festival last year for Greenpeace.

Try and avoid it, otherwise I get sucked in and then 30 minute slots including ads turn into days that turn into weeks that disappear before me!

Books:

Haven't read much for pleasure in a while. 'The Dictionary of Anthropology' single most helpful book I've ever owned! As well as 'Marx Durkheim and Weber' maybe one day i'll enjoy perusing through it of my own accord.. (or not). And two more anthropogists to throw into the mix: Joanthan Spencer & Keith Hart. And things that I've come acroos and am rather fond of- Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Paolo Coelho, Kurt Vonnegut, Sharon Creech, Judy Bloom (as a kid), Jonathan Bach, Tolstoy, J.D Salinger, Federico Garcia Lorca, The bell Jar, Kahlil Jibran, Wild Swans, etc...
