Examining the anatomy of accents, the social impact of speaking with an accent, and the responsibility of artistic application in mainstream media is the primary exploration of “Artistry in the Accent.” Play through anatomy and various acquisition tools will lead students into performance of multiple accents. Viewings of accent and conlang performances in popular media will also be discussed and analyzed in detail. Bias and its role in art will be defined on a personal and global level.
