Pseudo Mag completes a year today. We are super happy that we’re still at it. We love all the beautiful writers and artists who have contributed to the issues, and couldn’t have done any of this without them. So we decided to talk to them (those who happened to be in town) about books, reading, writing, happiness etc. and record it all on video. This video we made is a celebration of our anniversary as well as a tribute to all these amazing people who gave us their intellectual and artistic offsprings.
