Animator and Illustrator

Joseba Elorza is originally from Vitoria-Gasteiz. He studied to become a sound technician, then spent a few lackluster years in art school. It was among all of this synesthetic jumble that MiraRuido emerged: He used to spend the morning immersed in sound at a radio station and at night working on his collages. Little by little, the visual part triumphed and he currently makes a living as an illustrator specialized in collage and also as a digital animator, a new field that has filled his work with possibilities.

His illustrations have been seen in publications like Esquire, New Scientist, and the Wall Street Journal, and the videos he makes are for online consumption, promotion for music groups, although some have made it to television.
