Once you pop, you can’t stop by Snærún Tinna Torfadóttir

Popkultur er den fælles oplevelse af populære tv-serier, bøger, legetøj, musik og andre kulturelle produkter mellem almindelige mennesker i et bestemt samfund og en bestemt tid. For designeren bag dette kommunikationsprojekt har popkultur altid spillet en rolle ligesom for de fleste andre mennesker i dag. Popkultur fungerer som social kapital, der knytter mennesker sammen i venskaber, romantiske forhold og forretningsforbindelser. Designeren udforsker, hvordan vores muligheder for at skabe forbindelser via popkultur kan fremmes i fremtiden.
