Today on articulateCast, we invite Jonaya Riley, a photographer and game developer, on the show to talk about what constitutes a creative professional.

Join us as we talk about the fine line between amateur and professional, the necessity of a degree, and why capitalism has conditioned us to dismiss unpolished art.

This episode of articulateCast is a repost of my test podcast experiment from last spring, Fixing Music Education with Anna "articulatelyComposed" and Jojo "Funk" McLovin (available on youtube, previously available through Buzzsprout).

The long-awaited sequel to my and Jojo's first chat about our music education experiences, we dive even further back into our pasts and talk about the flaws and shortcomings of public school music education, and the plethora of pressure and elitism we've both experienced.

Join  @FunkMcLovin  and I as we revisit our college experiences and talk about the changes we would make to create a more fulfilling music school experience. Featuring discussion of elitism in classical music, how well music school prepares you for the real world, the importance of aural skills and jazz arranging classes, and the purpose of college in the first place.
