As a student, Angie Bu has her own take on the idea of education reform. In her brutally honest, funny, and ambitious talk, she explores better ways to supply the best education possible to her and students around the world. Angie’s obsession for art began the moment she reached for a pen at the airport as a baby. Ever since then, she has made a career out of the arts as a digital artist and programmer. She believes they are baby steps to improving the world with art of all kinds, not just paintings and sculptures. Today’s economy made the right choice to value innovation, and education needs to catch up.
Outside of being an artist, Angie is a track athlete at school. She believes it is easier to have a clear mind with a healthy body. Art doesn’t have to be purely aesthetic; they can be useful in many facets of life: I created the digital taste system Gastronaut and exercise-powered bracelet Rotacel to be released to the public later this year. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
