Los saltos de tierra para BMX son materia cuidadosamente colocada, mantenida y gobernada

Resumen

Este artículo se basa en una investigación realizada con personas que construyen circuitos para bicicletas y saltos de tierra DIY (hazlo tú mismo), cuyo objetivo fue descubrir las formas de reparación y cuidado que emplean en el mantenimiento de sus espacios. Primero describo las prácticas triviales implicadas en la mantención de los circuitos, como palear, regar y compactar, y conceptualizo estas actividades como la reparación de las “ruinas” de espacios a menudo ocupados ilegalmente. En segundo lugar, me baso en la literatura de los estudios feministas de ciencia y tecnología, así como en aquella que estudia los bienes comunes, para abogar por la intensificación del cuidado, descubriendo que estos espacios me alertan sobre las diversas formas en que el “descuido” y la exclusión de la participación en y la investigación con, son a menudo requisitos para su subsistencia. En conclusión, descubro que en estos espacios las formas de reparación y mantenimiento son múltiples y presentan varias capas —desde las prácticas cotidianas hasta sus formas de gobierno— y en los últimos años han implicado prácticas destinadas a “reparar” las culturas machistas y heteronormativas omnipresentes y dominantes en estos mundos sociales.

Liam Healy, University of Sheffield

Profesor de Diseño en la Escuela de Arquitectura de la Universidad de Sheffield. Doctor en Diseño por Goldsmiths, Universidad de Londres. Enfoca su investigación en la práctica y la investigación del diseño crítico y especulativo situado, el diseño DIY, el cuidado, la noción de Antropoceno y los enredos más-que-humanos con el diseño. Trabaja en un proyecto de investigación financiado por el AHRC que explora el acceso a los bosques (con Forestry England), así como en una etnografía de personas que construyen circuitos para bicicletas basada en la arquitectura, el diseño participativo y los métodos inventivos. Algunas de sus publicaciones más recientes son “Everything Is a Prototype, but Not At All in the Same Way: Towards an Ecology of Prototyping” (STS Encounters, vol. 15, n° 2), “Emergent Participation in DIY Designed Bike Trails” (con P.
