EDUCATION
As part of the original grant - funding DIMI - Joel Daniel, the original grant recipient, volunteered to give three lectures on songwriting, production, and marketing/promotion - areas he hoped would help the music community and future DIMI grant recipients. Covid 19 changed his ability to give these talks in person. However, in 2021 he has begun to produce video versions. They are hosted in the education section of this website, here.
