Hello. My name is Eugenio Tisselli.

I was born in Mexico City in 1972, and I lived there for 26 years. I learned to program when I was 10 years old, and have been a programmer ever since. I studied Computer Science at the University, and also played drums in a well-known punk band.

I moved to Barcelona in 1998, and studied a Master in Digital Arts at the Pompeu Fabra University. Funnily enough, I ended up being a professor and co-director of this Master, from 2003 until 2006.

In Barcelona I developed many projects involving creative uses of computers. For example MIDIPoet, a software tool for interactive visual poetry. Also, I formed a group called Vaina Systems, and we made interactive installations and developed special hardware.

Other net-based projects can be enjoyed at my website, motorhueso.net.

I have been a teacher... besides Pompeu Fabra, I also taught at MECAD, and did an on-line seminar for UNESCO digiarts.

I have collaborated in other artists' projects. The most fruitful of these collaborations was with Antoni Abad, at zexe.net.

I lived in Paris for 18 months, working as a researcher at the Sony Computer Science Lab.

Now I am back in Barcelona.
