Hello. My name is Uroš Krčadinac, and this is my Web corner for creative things – computer software, animated films, visual art, and more.

Currently, I am a research associate at the University of Belgrade, within the GOOD OLD AI Research Network, under the supervision of Professor Vladan Devedžić, brigding art and technology together. My newest project is Synesketch, Web's first free open-source textual emotion recognition and visualization engine – code that feels the words visually. It was reviewed by the Creative Review, and many more. I have graduated in the field of software engineering at the University of Belgrade, with First Class Honors (Best Student of the Faculty Award).

Concurently, I create animated films. I’m the full author – writer, director, animator, designer and editor – of the several award-winning shorts, screened at festivals in France, Hungary, Bosnia, Russia, Greece, Spain, Finland, USA, and Serbia. Most notable ones are The Tale of a Town and Self-Portrait. Several years ago, I held two solo exhibitions of comic books and drawings, and won City of Pančevo Award for the achievements in the field of art.

I also love travelling and writing: about Africa (traveling in progress!) or about Siberia and Mongolia. Love cycling, swimming, skiing, hiking, and especially razbi, a local version of the Ultimate Frisbee. Love storytelling. Love park swings. Love astronomy. Love poetry and philosophy. Love the concept of recursion. Love to be inspired!

I was born in Pančevo, Serbia, in 1984, where I still live most of the time.
