Sinopsis

"Rainworks gives people a reason to look forward to rainy days! It's going to rain anyway. Why not do something fun with it?" Peregrine Church is an artist and inventor. His two favorite things are 1) creating novel things, and 2) making people smile, and his current business, Rainworks, combines both by creating uplifting street art that appears on rainy days. Peregrine launched Rainworks with a massively successful viral Kickstarter campaign, and rain activated art can now be found popping up in cities all over the world. (If you're in Seattle and want to collaborate, let him know via twitter: @CreateToConnect)   In this episode, we cover a lot of ground including:   • Superhydrophobic Coating as a gateway to street art • The difference between “artist” and “creator" • “Analog art” and using elements of nature to create works of art  • Why optimism makes everything better • Why doing things is better than not doing things • The logistics of creating a Rainworks street art piece • Great advice for crowdfundi
