BiPEDAL – The (bi)cycle and its educative potential : uses of (bi)cycles as forms of participation in the educating city
Vera Diogo
Documento (.pdf)
Abstract“The first mammal to wear pants” (Pearl Jam, 1998), is also the first to pedal a convivial tool (Illich, 1973) - the (bi)cycle, further on broadly replaced by another that generated more demands than it can satisfy - the automobile. BiPEDAL symbolizes the defence of our nature, embedded in our culture, not erased by it. This project aims to understand the educative potential of cycling, questioning their impact in biopsychosocial development, participation in urban space and in the construction of educating cities by analysing cultural barriers and triggers to the expansion of velomobilities in Porto, in order to promote it. Automobility (Cox, 2019) is a relevant cause of such barriers. Motorization generated detachment between human beings and their bodies. Being bipedal is no longer exciting!? The reconnection between body and mind - in individual and collective development, from an educative perspective of urban development can trigger the expansion of velomobility.
