Work as a collaborator with Inés Pernas Alonso

Between 2008 and 2013 I collaborated with Inés Pernas Alonso in her study about Spain’s northwestern monumental architecture, taking geometrical notes and

creating videos and images to explain the diverse works that we analysed. The resulting work was shown to the public in the exposition “Galaecia Petrea” (2012)

in Santiago de Compostela, Spain.

Some personal Works

I have always felt a strong preference for creativity. I have been able to use it for practical purposes and, in addition, since I spend most of my free time creating,

my skills keep improving and growing in a feedback process.

ETSAC Tournament http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mi11oxn_Zg4

Promotional video for the “ETSAC Tournament”, a game which I created in 2012. (ETSAC stands for Higher Technical University College of Architecture, La Coruña in Spanish)

In 2012, I created a videogame which reproduces the building of the Higher Technical University College of Architecture of La Coruña and I presented it to my classmates and teachers. It consists on a sophisticated scenario virtually identical to the real life building. The player fights “against everyone”, in teams, or even connected against other people. This allowed the university to celebrate a public tournament in the Higher Technical University College of Architecture, by connecting 16 computers. The final purpose of this experience was to demonstrate that such thing could be done. Besides, it was meant to criticise the logic of our Higher Technical University College of Architecture, which was fully understood by both the pupils and the teachers.

Fetsac 13

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXxojINWSkw&list=PLF2No__vuj5zz2dfEv-lOOvC_9FBQGJsR “Fetsac” is an association of young architects graduated at the Higher Technical University College of Architecture of La Coruña. Every spring we organise a series of conferences and architectural activities. (See magazine AV 145 “COLECTIVOS ESPAÑOLES”) In its last two editions it has become known in all spanish architectural colleges, thanks to the advertising campaign I have created. It consists in a series of short videos which have spread very successfully thanks to their keen vision of both the students and Architects reality.
