TOLONES

The "Tolones" are little sculptures made of wood or pine seeds, painted and varnished with a totally artisanal process. You can hung them in your mobile phone, in your key chain or anywhere you want.

FLASH ANIMATIONS

 These are some of my flash animations. They are about parodies of films, friends or University.

Devuelto 1 y 2 (Vomit 1 and 2).
It is a story about a friend who felt sick in class and he had to go throw up. It didn't happen like that in the reality, but it is funnier hehe! (There are two versions).

El Señor de los Tolones. (The Lord of the Tolons).
This is an (incomplete) parody of The lord of the Rings. It represents a parallelism between the original story and a real neighborhood brawl. The Rings are replaced by the Tolons, a kind of pendant.

Asedio al castillo de Terio. (The siege to Terio's castle).
This is another parody of The Lord of the Rings. It is  a secundary story about how Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli go to help Terio and protect his castle. In the end a special character appears to solve the problems.

Aroca bros.
It is a parody about a videogame starred by Aroca, a professor from the University. He fights against other teachers and students.

Día del padre (Father's day).
It was a gift to my father in the father's day. It is a caricature of his daily habits.

Dragon bat.
This is a more "serious" animation I started to make. It is not finished but I'd like to finish it someday. It is about a character I invented long time ago.

PERCEBIA

Last October I took a course of video editing with Premiere. As an exercise of the course I made this video about one of my projects of the university, called Percebia ("Barnaclia"). 

It is a residential project which starts with a typological investigation about a screen-building faced to the sea. The houses have a part contained in the heaviness of the concrete wall. Another part, lighter, is linked to the far views. The circulation is organized by a web of corridors in the marine facade, which is looking to a garden that allows the transition with the terrain.

Music: "La bella cubana" OSB Chico & Rita.

SOLAR CONCENTRATION KITCHEN PROTOTYPE MADE WITH AN ORIENTABLE PARABOLIC CYLINDER.

A solar kitchen is proposed as a personal investigation. It allows heat a little steel plate (as a griddle) or pot. It is made using the geometric properties of the parabola that can concentrate the solar rays into a focus. The principal difficulty of the project is to let the cylinder orientate without losing the horizontality of the griddle. The prototype can concentrate fifteen times the solar energy into the griddle, getting around of 600 W (in a sunny day at summer in 40º latitude).

by rotating around the focus axis, the cylinder can be oriented
with the solar height angle (h): from 20 to 70 degrees.

the cylinder can be oriented around two axes

focus axis - solar height (h)

vertical axis - azimuth (A)

Proposal for the "V edition of ECOZINE's festival" poster contest

ECOZINE is an International festival of cinema and environment that take place in Zaragoza, Spain. It is organized by the Zaragoza's city council and the Ecozine's cultural association. The fifth edition was celebrated on May, from 11 to 18.

In this context, the organization made a competition to choose the poster for the festival. So I decided to participate with a collage made of recycled materials, according to the theme of the festival. I tried to introduce both technique of cinema and sustainability without using complicated computer technologies. I made a plane model of an antique video camera with paper and then I took a picture of it. I also put a representative view of the city of Zaragoza at the bottom of the poster.

Drawings for the "First Online Drawing Contest ab 2009”

These are the drawings which I presented to the "First Online Drawing Contest ab 2009". The contest was to draw the architectural works of "Arquitectura Blanca" (a group of projects built with concrete). The rules said that technique was free, but I decided not to use the computer. So I used pencil, pen and watercolour in order to get a more natural style.

PROTECTED HOUSES IN MADRID, SPAIN

The project starts from a simple module grouped in several ways and related with the public space with different privacy degrees. It creates various edificatory types that answer to a contemporary and mixed society. Other compatible uses are also given in order to complement it.
