(page2) Blank page (page3) <> <> (page4) Blank page (page5) <> 2021 was the second year in which TURN’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic was in full swing. It was a year in which we developed a wide range of activities, from continuing to implement programs using methods cultivated the previous year, to reworking and implementing programs that hadn’t come to fruition. This year’s TURN NOTE is a compilation of the words of people who have developed a shift in their mindset during this time. In terms of the accessible features of this publication, in addition to using differently textured paper to represent each section, by scanning the QR codes printed on the corner of these pages (using smartphones and other digital devices), users can experience audio readings of TURN NOTE. After discussing with people with visual-impairments, who have been involved in TURN activities together, our aim was to incorporate the pleasure they found in “turning the page,” and to create a publication that could be passed on to other acquaintances and friends with visual impairments. In this transitional period for society, many people may have sought to find out what other people feel and think through their words as well as through direct contact. The concept of “Encounters,” which TURN has upheld as a keyword since 2015, presents a different meaning in 2021. Lastly, this publication includes words written by Katsuhiko Hibino during the activities of TURN. What will the messages delivered at each step over the past few years require us to reconsider at a later date?
