Bitocas Fernandes
Creative facilitator, visual artist, performer, and educator. Born in 1968 into a family of musicians, he studied at the Aveiro Conservatory of Music and the Espinho Professional School of Music. However, it was through self-teaching that he developed his pedagogical-musical research. His highly personal methods are reflected in the project O Jogo Aberto (“The Open Game”), which involves game design, themed labs, and interactive events, creating contexts for a more creative musical practice through play. Together with his brothers, he co-founded d'Orfeu – Cultural Association, coordinated AparqA! – Alta Vila Creative Center (2008–2011), and is currently a founding member of Glocalmusic , a cooperative for the development of creative music. He regularly collaborates with various institutions, promoting initiatives that blend art, playfulness, and interaction.
