USC Arts Now creates new opportunities to engage and activate the arts as an interdisciplinary platform for creativity, inquiry, research, and problem-solving.
We approach the University as a vibrant arts interface, where our campuses meet the city, the country, and the world.
In dialogue with the creative industries and communities of Los Angeles and our global University partners, our vision of the arts is boundary defying: hybrid, interdisciplinary, entrepreneurial, and technologically innovative. We embrace collaboration and leave silos in the rearview mirror.
Our goal is to inspire all students, no matter the field, to engage with the arts as a way of being and thinking.
Arts Talk is the official podcast of the USC Arts Now initiative, hosted by Professor Josh Kun. Each episode explores key issues and debates facing the arts and contemporary society, featuring USC faculty, students, and staff in dialogue with artists and arts leaders across Los Angeles and the world.
Listen on: Amazon Music, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Pandora
