Alexander’s Schellow pedagogical practice has taken him to universities, among others, in London, Paris, Tirana, Singapore, Mexico City and Brussels, where he founded AnimLAB and since 2013 holds a professorship in animation, heading an MA of more than human practices at the erg - école de recherche graphique.

His research originates in an interest for methods of memory (re)construction, which he developed and pursued in daily drawing and animation practice.

The hybrid processes materialize into projects that have been shown widely internationally, most recently at the 18th International Architecture Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia. In addition, collaborations in recent years have focused in particular on the creation of specific archives (e.g. Colonial Family Films, Belgium) or on interfaces of human/digital (re)cognition, especially in the field of current deep learning developments.
