As our daily lives have been fundamentally changed during the COVID-19 pandemic, more subtle changes have bled over into the media we consume every day. Packed movie theaters and concert venues sit empty, leaving thousands of creators to take to the internet to share their talents, many creating easily accessible work that reacts in some way to the ceaselessly upsetting and confusing year that is 2020.
With this outpouring of creativity, humor and self-expression online, the CU Independent arts editors chose their top 10 trends in arts and culture this year. Amidst social distancing and the never-ending stream of bad news on social media, we hope these trends will bring you a few moments of joy, laughter and connection.
