Where do you find some of your inspirations right now? Are you going internally? Are you looking externally? Are you diving into something past? Or Aydin, where are you drawing your inspiration?

Aidin ArdjomandiGUEST
Well, Julie, you know, some people in this situation that we are, they think that this situation is the circumstances of light versus darkness.

Aidin ArdjomandiGUEST
I believe that this situation is light versus light, because not every light is beautiful.

Aidin ArdjomandiGUEST

Aidin ArdjomandiGUEST
You see it and you can learn, you know, and a still image of that could be inspiring.
