Guest: Giacomo Raineri

Thank you for listening to the first episode of The Mindscape Museum, a podcast where we delve into the fascinating relationship between science, art, and pop culture in visual and narrative art forms.

In this episode, host RJ Nieto talks with Giacomo Raineri about the concept of the multiverse museum and the lore of the museum.

Through The Mindscape Museum, listeners can step into a strange yet wonderful world, building a deeper understanding and appreciation of science, pop culture, and storytelling through speculative fiction.

Out of the ordinary, into the extraordinary!
