Analyzing midterms artistically was a valuable exercise in developing the main point of a work, whether scientific or artistic. It helps to have focus in creating art, as opposed to randomly designing a work. When you know what your focus is, you can try to use methods and techniques that further your message. Similarly, in science it is valuable to have focus and understand the main message you wish to convey. That way, in researching and in organizing a scientific writing, you know what to look for and what will be relevant in pressing a topic.
