John von Seggern stands at the intersection of music education innovation and hands-on industry experience, making him uniquely qualified to lead Futureproof Music School’s revolutionary approach to music education. As a veteran educator and accomplished musician with over three decades of experience, von Seggern brings a rare combination of pedagogical expertise and real-world musical prowess to his role as founder and CEO.

His vision for music education was shaped by years of observing the limitations of traditional teaching methods while working as the online education director at noted electronic music production schools Dubspot and Icon Collective, and in his work as a professional musician. This dual perspective led him to pioneer Futureproof’s innovative blend of personalized human instruction and AI-enhanced tutoring, creating a more accessible and effective learning environment for aspiring musicians.

Von Seggern’s credentials as a musician and producer lend exceptional credibility to Futureproof’s curriculum. His collaborative work with electronic music pioneer Jon Hassell from 2014 to 2020 demonstrates his deep understanding of innovative sound design and contemporary music production. As a studio musician, producer, and sound designer, he has developed an intimate knowledge of the ever-evolving music industry landscape, ensuring that Futureproof’s educational approach remains current and practical.

Under von Seggern’s leadership, Futureproof Music School has developed a project-based curriculum that breaks away from conventional music education constraints. His approach emphasizes personalized learning paths that adapt to individual student needs while incorporating cutting-edge technology and industry-relevant skills. This methodology reflects his belief that effective music education should be both accessible and aligned with current industry practices.

What sets von Seggern apart is his commitment to bridging the gap between traditional music education and modern industry demands. He recognized early on that the future of music education requires a more flexible, technology-enhanced approach that can scale without sacrificing quality or personalization. This insight led to the development of Kadence, Futureproof’s AI tutor, which complements human instruction and provides students with round-the-clock support affordably.

Von Seggern’s vision extends beyond just teaching music production; he aims to nurture complete artists who can navigate the modern music industry confidently. His experience as both an educator and working musician has shaped Futureproof’s holistic approach, which combines technical training with creative development and industry insight. Under his guidance, Futureproof Music School continues to evolve, staying true to its mission of revolutionizing music education through innovative teaching methods and technology.

Today on Dare to Dream, we step into territory few have ever entered and returned to speak about. Dannion Brinkley — bestselling author, spiritual messenger, and survivor of three near-death experiences — joins us with wisdom earned not from theory, but from literally crossing the boundary between life and what lies beyond. In 1975, a lightning strike stopped his heart for 28 minutes and sent him through a tunnel of light into a vast “crystal city,” where angelic beings revealed humanity’s purpose, the architecture of consciousness, and prophetic visions of our future. But that was only the first crossing. For nearly 50 years, Dannion has served the dying, guided thousands of veterans through their final moments, and explored what he insists is the greatest misunderstanding of all: death does not happen. Consciousness continues. And every choice you make ripples across lifetimes. Today, we explore what his journeys show about the soul’s mission, the life review, the evolution of humanity, and how to live with clarity and courage in a rapidly changing world. If you’ve ever wondered who you truly are, why you incarnated, or what happens when this particular story ends — this conversation with Dannion Brinkley transforms everything. 

Rusty grew up in Colorado, where a big part of the lifestyle is going outside on weekends to be in nature, camping, backpacking, river rafting and hiking. He retired from a 35-year career as a Hollywood producer and now lives happily in Rancho Mirage, California, where he writes illustrated children’s animal poetry books and the occasional non-fiction book for adults. The poems are always informative, for example he writes about bats using echolocation to fly and caimans using a nictitating membrane to see underwater. This exposes kids to something they didn’t know in a fun and unique way.
