What is a Trend?

This talk will explore a proposed definition and theory of trends. Hosted by the Annenberg School for Communication’s Center on Digital Culture and Society, Devon Powers, a professor of communication and media at the University of Michigan, will explore how “trend” increasingly names both a media form and a type of media content, as well as discuss important lessons about media industries, history, and environments. Register to attend.
