AND THE CULTURE OF BMX

by Mike Hinkens
June 5th, 2018
In the first official open discussion podcast for imprimaturBMX.com, Mike Hinkens and his guest Richard Mungall lay out some major issues in modern BMX with an eye towards a deeper analysis of the culture and as an introduction to future in-depth podcasts. Topics covered include the relationship of BMX to the mainstream media and how that affects our cultural productions, the merits and detriments of growing BMX for the sake of progress, the reasoning behind studying BMX as opposed to just “doing it,” the “cloudy utopianism” in American culture that can shed light on the perennial debate over “buying in” versus “selling out,” and MUCH MORE.
