Iñigo learnt coding real time computer graphics and procedural content creation within the Demoscene, winning several awards. In the early 2000s he worked designing VR visualization software for CAVEs, and then joined Pixar as a Technical Artist doing procedural content, winning a VES award. Inigo then joined the Oculus as VFX Supervisor of VR short films, created the VR animation tool "Quill" and became its Product Manager.
