“Foundations of Style” BMX Podcast – Issue #4 Our Machines

February 14, 2017

[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/307366940″ params=”auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true” width=”100%” height=”450″ iframe=”true” /]

Pat Fisher sent over the 4th installment of the “Foundations of Style” podcast for your viewing pleasure. This time around, the focus is more on bikes and how they can have an affect on the way we ride, progress, etc. Hit play and take it in.

“Issue four of the “Foundations of Style” series examines the relationship between the bikes we ride and how we ride them. From the individual scale of how we limit ourselves by using products for only their advertised purpose, to the global scale of how wealth distribution determines what technology is utilized where, this analysis reveals the socioeconomic bias of BMX’s linear progress narrative and shows how it serves to actively marginalize alternative riding styles and those riders creating them.

Pat Fisher over at Building Gnarnia sent over the 3rd issue of his “Foundations of Style” Podcast. This time around he goes in depth on how the body can have an effect on our ability to ride. Hit play and take it in!

“Issue three of the “Foundations of Style” series examines the relationship between our bodies and the styles of movement we develop. When looked at on a social scale, we can see that today’s mainstream riding styles are reflections of BMX’s past social relations, and that BMX’s cultural values and participant demographics are functioning to mutually perpetuate their narrow ranges.
