His first degree was in Maths, he has a Master Degree in Education and Culture and holds a PhD in Semiotics from the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo (PUC/SP). Poltronieri is a senior lecturer and permanent member of the IOCT (Institute of Creative Technologies) at De Montfort University, Leicester, UK, supervising PhD students and teaching creative code in the Digital Arts MA. His theoretical texts and essays are often published in international books and journals, such as the Revista Brasileira (Brazilian Academy of Letters). He has written chapters for the books Rethinking gamification and The permanence of the transient: precariousness in art, of which he was also the co-editor. He is also the co-author of the book Explorations in art and technology and winner of the Itaú Rumos Arte Cibernética 2011 award with the Amigóide robot.
