EarthDiverse: "The Interplay Between Art & Popular Culture"
Check out one of EarthDiverse's newest courses, ART205: ”The Interplay Between Art & Popular Culture,” a 3-week course delivered over three consecutive live or Zoom sessions, beginning Wed 18 Oct, 11am-1pm (NZ time) or Tuesday 17 Oct 3:00pm (US Pacific) or 6pm (US Eastern).
In the modern age there has always been a fruitful interchange between the visual arts and popular culture. And it flowed both ways. Part of the joy of things is recognizing the influences and spotting the links. This course looks at over 40 examples where this has happened, involving everything from the world of cartoons, wallpaper design, video production and back.

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
