Roll Over to really see Mii.
Personal Info
I'm Full Professor (Catedrático) at the Departament d'Informàtica, Matemàtica Aplicada i Estadística, Universitat de Girona, SPAIN. I got my
PhD from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya under the supervision of
Xavier Pueyo and Alvar Vinacua
working on Inverse Rendering Problems.
Currently, I am the head of the Geometry and Graphics Group (GGG), part of the ViRVIG Research Center.
You can see my (rather old) VRML essais!
Research
My main interest is related to Computer Graphics in general and Rendering Techniques and Procedural Modeling in particular. Right now I'm working on real-time rendering and Procedural Modeling techniques with special emphasis on procedural cities. From some more information on this topis and my work in general, the reader is encouraged to visit my publications page at ViRVIG.
Development Projects
I'm involved, either as advisor, either as collaborator, or as coder, in a number of projects. You can find some of them here.
Teaching
I lecture both undergraduate courses and Master courses. Also, I advise undergraduate final projects ("Treball de fi de Grau", or "PFC") and master thesis.
Also, I am the Coordinator of the Videogame Development and Design degree at UdG

Other
By the way, everybody should have his own MURPHY law. Mine is:
Law: Given a system with all its variables but one under
strict control, such free variable will evolve in order to produce the
largest damage possible.
And it has its logical
Corollary: When a free variable in an otherwise totally
controlled system is only able to evolve in the positive direction
(i.e. only producing beneficial results), it will remain stationary
until further movement completely loses its meaning.
