Episode 55 | Dr.Dave Camilleri's Incredible new research linking BMX trail building and higher creativity.
An absolute belter of an episode with Dr.Dave Camilleri, a researcher out of the University of Melbourne. A lifelong BMXer, Dr.Camilleri has spent the last few years studying the positive effects of BMX and its relationship to higher levels of creativity and mental health outcomes, releasing the "BMX For Life" Project with University of Melbourne: https://education.unimelb.edu.au/bmx-for-life
His latest research paper is focused specifically on trail building! "Exploring Creativity in BMX Trail Construction - Stack, Slap, Repeat" (https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/27538699241273740) which is discussed at length here.
A massive episode and I learnt a lot and I'm sure you will too.
We'd love to hear your thoughts on any of the topics on this episode.
