Episode Synopsis

Rainer is a queer creator, collector, and tinkerer raised in lederhosen with a pet buffalo on a floral farm in rural Pennsylvania by an eccentric immigrant father and a defiantly strong mother. Rainer is a designer leveraging art to explore and document encounters of the human condition. He is a sculptor and a painter who creates interactive installations and experiences that help people feel seen and heard.During our conversation we talk about documenting the human process, what helps and what hurts, machines, control and letting go, procrastination, and seeing time in yearly spirals.TakeawaysStand up for what’s right. Don’t be afraid to try new things.Sometimes when you start a project you have no idea how much of an impact you will have.Self-doubt can push you into problem-solving and exploration.Not knowing the rules can give you confidence.Don't forget to keep the other burners of your life alive.We’re so much more similar than we are different.Rainer WolterRainer Wolter on InstagramRainer Wolter on LinkedInThe Accounting, by EJ Trask (Rainer’s debur in short horror story)Art PrizeKhadi PapersKrista Allenstein, Authentic Obsessions Episode 2
