LEYDEN ROTAWISKY, JENNIFER. PARKOUR, BODIES THAT TRACE URBAN HETEROTOPIES. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2013, vol.49, n.2, pp.41-61. ISSN 0486-6525.

Abstract This article explores the embodied experience of parkour in Bogotá, which means the way its practitioners produce nomadic subjectivities and create heterotopies in contemporary cities through the transformation of their bodies. By understanding parkour as a discipline aimed at building a body capable of doing spectacular movements and tracing multiple routes along the cities, I examine how this culture of movement and its aesthetics of existence produce flowing bodies and lines of flight. From an anthropological analysis of affects and becoming, I propose a debate on new ways of dwelling the city through body movements.

Palavras-chave : parkour; heterotopies; autoethnography; cultures of movement; affects.
