This was our presentation. 
Included are pictures of some artwork and some artists we interviewed, as well as several music videos.


Looking back at our TED talk, we really did spend too much time in general. In our practice, we always ran through the TED talk in sessions, which meant we didn't exactly have a ballpark for our time length. We were, however, were shooting for a detailed description of our project, our goals, and a time length of around 7-8 minutes. Also, during the presentation, we tended to say "I guess" a lot, which is actually something we said constantly during our practice time, so we should have paid attention to that. Maybe recording our practice sessions would have been useful, as we could approximate our time and see what was wrong with our wordings and physical postures. From our project as a whole, we both took away a lot of things. One, we learned how arts affected others' lives. And not just anybodys' lives. People that were around us, living in the same area, and around the same age. Arts isn't just an extracurricular we put on our applications and resumes. It's culture, it's lifestyle, it's creativity, it's individuality, it's fun, it's enjoyable. Another is how we actually could incorporate the arts into our lives. Aside from the typical hobby, music and the arts allow for expression, stress relief, social interactions, and proven academic improvement. I think we were able to accomplish a majority of what we had planned, and the real goal was to learn more, and that we both did plenty.
