“The Global Impact of Pop Culture” – Voices from Canada, the United States of America and Europe

The Faculty of Media, Art and Performance is pleased to invite members of the University of Regina community to the online Conference –  “The Global Impact of Pop Culture” – Voices from Canada, the United States of America and Europe.

This online conference is devoted to the exploration of, on the one hand, what constitutes pop culture, but also it is a survey of seminal icons of pop culture in music, art, and other forms of artistic expression. The conference also explores topics such as food, folk dance, famous books, traditions and video games, to name just a few.  We will listen to different presentations of students,  seminal scholars and lecturers from The United States of America, Europe and the University of Regina. They all share one common goal as they want to explore pop culture globally, taking into consideration different points of view, analyses and perceptions of mass culture.
