This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Watch beatboxing champion HeaveN share his personal journey and give an electric performance that underscores the universal language of music and gives us a glimpse of the mechanics of beatboxing.
HeaveN Beatbox defies beatboxing stereotypes. The fact that he grew up in a suburb of Atlanta, holds a bachelor's degree from Georgia State University and beatboxes to alternative rock did not stop him from becoming the 2012 American Vice-Beatbox Champion.
He strives to break new ground in the art and technical mastery of Beatboxing and to reflect our similarities across countries and culture through his music.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
