About

I’m a live performance designer and technologist working with space, light, images and custom tools. Originally from Bogotá, Colombia, I teach live performance design and production at Simon Fraser University.

More about me

Studio

Ways we can work together.

02

Tools & systems

I design and build custom media servers, show control systems and instruments for performance.

04

Teaching & mentorship

I teach performance design and media, and mentor artists and students developing their practice.

Toolbox

Software I’ve been making.

Dot Garden’s risograph workspace: a stack of layers beside a composition printed in red, blue and black inks

Dithering and risograph studio · working

Dot Garden

A tool for making layered images with dithering, risograph colours and print patterns.

I used it to make the images on this site’s project cards.

Square Dance’s window: tools, a small pixel scene being drawn, palettes and layers

Pixel art editor · in progress

Square Dance

A pixel art editor: draw, layer and transform, trace a photo into blocks, or match a picture to a palette from classic machines (NES, Game Boy, C64, PICO-8 and more).

A companion to Dot Garden and Plot Twist, so pictures can pass between them.

On Book! in rehearsal on a made-up show: script cards, the line being followed, and the Spanish surtitle

Surtitles for live performance · in progress

On Book!

Surtitles that follow the actors: it tracks the script as they speak, and translates live when they leave it. The script is prepared as a table of cards in several languages.

I made it to surtitle live theatre.

More about On Book!
HEIST on stage, the show FADE ENGINE ran

Media server and show control in TouchDesigner · working

FADE ENGINE

A media server and cue console in TouchDesigner: a cue list with crossfades and parameter moves, sending OSC to QLab and Eos, split between a console machine and a render node.

I built it to run HEIST at the Arts Club Theatre Company in 2026.

More about FADE ENGINE
Plot Twist making a drawing: the Waves method’s settings, sixty wavy lines on an A4 sheet, and variations on the right

Pen plotter software · in progress

Plot Twist

A desktop app for the AxiDraw pen plotter. It turns photos and generated patterns into line drawings, places them on the paper, orders the pen’s path and drives the plotter. Each plot is kept in a record with its pen and settings.

I made it for my own drawing on an AxiDraw SE/A3.

More about Plot Twist

Drum practice app · in progress

Stickler

A rhythm game for a practice pad: it listens through the microphone and judges every stroke against the click.

I made it to learn the drums.

More about Stickler
Dither Mix running in TouchDesigner: a camera-slider test clip in three inks, the Mix controls, and the network of three Dither Layers feeding it

Components for TouchDesigner · in progress

TouchDesigner tools

Components that bring Dot Garden’s dither patterns, risograph inks and layer stacks to video in TouchDesigner.

For building print-like textures into live visuals and projection work.

Theatre drafting in Blender · name to come · early

Drafting for Blender

A Blender extension for theatre drafting — plans, sections and the paperwork of a set. On the way.

I want to draft shows in Blender instead of Vectorworks.
