67 - Anthropology with Dr Alex Pavlotski

This is episode 3 of xDiscipline. The first two episodes were produced as part of a xDiscipline event I ran in Melbourne late in 2019. Do you remember late 2019? Seems like a long time ago now. So here's episode 3, an interview with anthropologist, lecturer and fellow comics artist Dr Alex Pavlotski.The work I do lately is in human-centred design and service design, and I didn't ask Alex any specific questions about the parallels between his work and mine, but I think there's a ton of crossover between design and anthropology, or there should be, and you'll probably catch some parallels between his work and yours too.I've been a student of Alex's in some anthropology courses he's been running online, and it was all new to me, so I pull him up in this discussion on a number of really interesting ideas I didn't used to have a vocabulary for, such as 'reflexivity', being a 'stepmother' and his soon to be famous "cognitive triangle" concept.

xDiscipline: Dr Alex Pavlotski

'A picture is worth a thousand words' is a statement that Alex Pavlotski lives by as a cartooning ethnographer. He explains ethnography and anthropology, and shares his thoughts on parkour and where it's headed. Alex discusses leadership and his project Word Magick, as well as his goals for an illustrated thesis. He unpacks his observations on parkour practice, community, and defining our own future. Alex Pavalotski is an anthropologist, comic artist, blogger, and parkour practitioner based in Melbourne Australia. He is the creator of Parkour Panels, a satirical comic where he discussed relevant issues in the parkour community. Alex earned his PhD in 2016, and traveled extensively while working on his thesis, training with and studying global parkour communities. --- Why does Movers Mindset exist? The purpose of Movers Mindset is to create and share great conversations with movement enthusiasts. Each conversation feeds my insatiable curiosity, but I share them to turn on a light for someone else, to inspire them, or to give them their next question. In the podcast, I talk with movement enthusiasts to learn who they are, what they do, and why they do it. I'm interested in the nature and philosophy of movement and in exploring themes like independence, self-direction, and human excellence. My interests color each conversation and provide some structure to Movers Mindset. But since I like to take the scenic route, every conversation ends up going somewhere unique. I really appreciate your time and attention, and I don’t take it for granted. --- I need your support I want to share more of these amazing conversations, with amazing people, but I’m limited by the cost of the project. Please support what I’m doing. Every dollar really makes a difference. You can make a one-time contribution via Buy Me a Coffee, https://www.buymeacoffee.com/moversmindset …or make a recurring contribution via Patreon, https://www.patreon.com/moversmindset --- Thank you! My personal mission is creating better conversations to spread understanding and compassion. And Movers Mindset is one of the things I do in service of my mission. Drop by constantine.name for my weekly email, my other podcasts, writing and more. The Movers Mindset project grew from conversations I started having as part of my personal journey rediscovering movement. The project started late in 2015, and it was initially simply a web site that shared others’ writing. The project grew, and in 2017 I started the podcast. I’ve worked extremely hard, but none of this would have been possible without so much help from so many people. Cheers! ɕ
