Thoughts on learning
This morning the MyTown Staff had a great meeting where we discussed (among other things- you know, as our Corey is an excited rambler) the experience of learning. It got me thinking. Our whole purpose in providing private lessons at Mytown is to provide a different type of learning- to blow away the barriers that our education system has built and release artists, confident and creative in their own merit into the community. So what does that look like? Are we dancing flower hippies that hoola hoop in your living room with hawaiian lays on? Or do we revolve around a structured platform of textbook learning, standardized for all students in a method book, void of personal ambitions or experiential learning? Neither, really. Mostly because I've never been able to hoola hoop. Our mission is to create a balance between an artistic student-centered curriculum that is individually defined, and that whimsical artistry that is born in a space created by a platform of freedom. Freeeeedom, the keyword. So what's it look like? Excited to find out.

About Corey Ferrugia...
ReplyDeleteI honestly don't why I am writing this as it is so obvious but with the complete lack of self awareness someone needs to speak the truth to you Corey or should I call you Magical Mystery Mentally ill CoRey. I actually hope your curiosity leads you to wellness but right now you're a security guard, cannabis smokin bum that would be living on the streets or back living in Arizona with your mom if it wasn't for your wife or sugar momma. Less is more... your content on your channel and soundcloud is a literal pu pu platter of trash and don't get me started with the instagram emojis... It's all a load of hoarding, tasteless nonsense from a never has been narcissist. I can't even go on and claim that you are washed up because you never were in the first place. It may be hard to come to terms but you're too old to be a popstar and not talented enough to be a breakout singer/musician. The amount of autotune is embarrassing but obviously needed from your live and your proposal video. Claiming to be "awake" when in fact you've lost all grounding. Who would look up to you? Seriously, look back a few years back it's been a downward spiral. Now you're recording private conversations without the others knowing then posting it is not cool. Basic common sense. Trying to wheel and deal and secretly profit and offer people blogs for huff post I KNOW and guarantee you Arianna Huffington would NOT be cool with. You'd be blacklisted. Your TEDtalk was a self serving joke of a presentation. In the past charging people 250 an hour for "artist development" when yet you have no development yourself. It's sad but obvious people caught on as the clients dried up. Your self claimed "magic" is deception and delusion which will probably lead to the third "d" divorce. It's all smoke and mirrors. You can go on iTunes and the only fan review for your biggest song "Paradise" is your wife. I can literally go on and on but that pretty much explains it all and is ironic as anyone can see "trouble in paradise" coming soon...
