 Vivanco\n	University of Vermont\n\nAdventures in creative stumbling\n\nAbst
 ract:\n	During the last five years\, I have been spending more time than I 
 probably should making and sharing research-based comics on the social his
 tory of bicycles. What began as a playful diversion has generated new reve
 lations about things I have long taken for granted\, including my relation
 ship with anthropological and historical scholarship and teaching. I have 
 come to describe what I do in this space as creative stumbling. In this il
 lustrated talk\, I reflect on my intentional and emergent inquiry practice
 s\, tripping\, stumbling\, and backing my way into inquiries\, embracing t
 he generative intellectual and creative possibilities of bewilderment whil
 e creating sequential narrative art.\n	\n	Speaker Biography:\n	Luis Vivanco i
 s Professor and Chair of Anthropology at the University of Vermont. His sc
 holarship focuses on the culture and politics of environmentalist social m
 ovements and activism\, drawing primarily on research in Latin America. Hi
 s writings have explored community-level biodiversity conservation and eco
 tourism\; the history of nature cinema and wildlife film\; and the socio-c
 ultural dimensions of urban bicycle mobility and political activism. He is
  currently working on his tenth book\, which offers a critical overview of
  environmental anthropology. He is author of the Oxford Dictionary of Cult
 ural Anthropology and has co-written four widely-used anthropology textboo
 ks. He has won several of his university’s top teaching awards\, among the
