Both the ted talks and the Art 21 all discussed the process of creating an idea. The two ted talks talked about how an idea stems out into different variations and the processes you can take that lead you to that final idea. The first of the two ted talks speaks of how one can arrive at final destination completely different than the original idea and how that original idea can be considered "nature", while the different ideas that spawn are "variations of nature". The second Ted talk speaks of how you can change particular ideas or commonalities by changing the context or something about the subject matter. The Art 21 is more broad as it talks about the different ways artists "ingest" the topics they "consume" and from which, create a theme in their work.
