Received! 11302020 Josh Ronsen

Another exciting introduction 

via mail! Josh included a neat zine made up of 

completed A&P sheets, cut and pasted so that 

page of the zine is a detail of a larger work. Also

included, an invitation to download some noise/experimental music from Austin musicians!!

Absolutely fab!! Thanks Josh…

I suggested she check out IUOMA for contacts, as well as included a couple address stickers a couple of you sent me to share. Hopefully she joins us on here and gains some collaborators!…
