The other one is the owner of Seal Pool label, John Podeszwa, who is one of the biggest Nurse With Wound collectors in Japan, has been living in Osaka for nearly 25 years.

This issue reflects not only the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic, but also the mood of the dark times that have been going on for the last few years. We'll hear the voices of artists, Aaron Dylan Kearns (an abstract filmmaker from Georgia, US) and Mary Ocher (a multi-artist from Berlin and Hamburg Germany), as they tell us about their days under the pandemic (Unfortunately, I'm late to publish their "2020" voices). In addition to them, there is the short interview of Justin Martell, who is the producer of the latest Tiny Tim documentary, King For A Day, and the co-founder of the Ship To Shore PhonoCO. label.
