• Creo que la animación es una forma muy veraz de expresar tus pensamientos, porque el proceso es muy directo. Eso es lo que siempre me ha gustado de la animación, sobre todo de la animación abstracta. Vas de la idea a la ejecución, directamente desde tu cerebro. Es como cuando oyes a alguien tocar un instrumento y sientes la conexión directa entre el instrumento y su cerebro, porque el instrumento se convierte en una extensión de sus brazos y dedos. Es como un escáner del cerebro y del proceso de pensamiento que puedes ver o escuchar.
