Now that the Renaissance Man released do you figure out how will RM: Ultimate Artist will differ from the RM? @SaintSovereign

@SaintSovereign What do you attribute this to? Is it the massive shift in perception?
You said LBFH was also a vibe, but different than Summertime. Is there joy scripting in Stage 1?

From qOS (since I’ve been using it to analyze my own results as well, this is accurate):
The Creative Engine is built around the moment Robert Henri spent his life describing, the “more than ordinary moment of existence”. He held that this state is natural, not supernatural: a mind and body in full working order. The page also describes what happens once you’ve felt it a few times. It stops staying in the studio and follows you into the rest of your life. A shower and a piece of bread with butter are the rest of your life. That’s the state spilling out of the work, which is exactly where it’s designed to go.
Three parts of the stage work together to produce it:
- The Strata trains your attention to stay with things long enough to see their layers: surface, structure, history, meaning. A shower stops being a routine and becomes warmth, sound, steam and relief all at once. Ordinary things get their depth back.
- The Deep Well keeps a still centre while feeling runs high, so you take in more of the world, not less. That’s also why I still have the drive of the creative rage without the hot, stuck energy that needs to be released. The feeling is all there, but it has somewhere steady to sit.
- The Creativity Engine makes that wide, bright state a place you can return to on purpose. Once you know the way there, it isn’t limited to the studio.
The other things I mentioned fit too. Music and nature sounding incredible is The Strata. The cross-domain synergy is Hungry for Everything and The Meeting of Unlike Things starting to fire.
So the joy in Stage 1 is the joy of perceiving fully and wanting to make something of it.
How it differs from Summertime and LBFH. All three can feel like “a vibe”, but each is a different one.
- Summertime is built around joy itself: warmth, fun, sensory enjoyment and presence. The pleasure is the point.
- A Love Bomb For Humanity fills you with love for yourself until it overflows to whoever is near you. The vibe is warmth toward people.
- The Creative Engine opens perception and gives you the steadiness to stay with what you see. The vibe is wonder. The world gets vivid, and the vividness keeps turning into ideas.
That last part is why I said it will lead to heightened creativity. The bread isn’t the destination. It’s the same widened state the work comes from, showing up at lunch. If it ever feels like too much, the page’s advice applies: honour your nervous system and slow down. The engine runs best at your own pace.

Ultimate Artist will have The Creative Engine as well, tuned and tailored for the title, but the second (or more, not sure yet – probably just one stage) stage will be ALL craft. No romance, no alpha scripting. Just craft development.

Not with this info i wonder which wealth title will be the most suitable for stacking with that stage… (Stark or Emperor maybe?)

This is tempting me to add a few loops of this before the new year. Earlier I ran a second loop of this, a full one this time, with KB ST3. I’ve been using the different stages of KB in sequence, going between ST1/ST2 and ST3.
Knowing that I already have that Taurus moon in the 12th house in the anaretic degree, using the earlier stages of KB to strengthen the nervous system combined with using RM to activate that moon on a regular basis to see how the nervous system is handling being wide open seems like a sound plan, assuming that I go slowly with loops on RM. The idea would be to ensure that the nervous system can tolerate being wide open again like it was in earlier years without the burn-out that comes from being open to the global psychic ambience.
I suspect RM, KB, PEACE could be the ticket, so that the nervous system regulation offsets the potential problems of too much energy moving through the system.

Renaissance Man Stage 2 would still be the best to start with.

So does it function as a wealth title?
1 Like
It feels like a niche one that works through your creative work rather than just general wealth, but it’s super fluid with what’s considered creative work.

Yep. This is why I said “to start with,” as it will help you overcome a lot of blockages that creative individuals tend to have with wealth. Undercharging, deeply ingrained patterns related to scarcity (the broke, starving artist archetype that society conditions), etc.
Once you’ve progressed to a certain level, you can use another wealth title that deals with business scaling and the such.

Made this custom
I gotta say I’ve ran some “effective” customs over the years but this is the first that I can truly say is beautiful
Really dedicated to seeing the best of myself, of other people, and of the world, and turning that into the foundation for a more creative, expressive, and successful life.
Stacked with wealth subs.
Some good modules to consider as a synergy together would be Nomad + New Dawn + Worldwalker (maybe even YANA to be able to truly find your tribe while traveling around the world)

If you are 2nd guessing Renaissance Man, STOP!
Less than 5 minutes of listening time over a week have reinvigorated me in a way that is difficult to describe.
I am compelled to finish, everything. Things I’ve been putting off for months that only take 10 minutes, done.
I empowered Claude to finish my app store set ups. My app is officially in beta testing and review to be released to a mobile app store soon.
The 1st TV app is also submitted for review.
For all the apps I made over the last year, this is the 1st one to market, and it wasn’t on my bingo card a week ago. It was losing bytes on my hard drive.

Been waiting for this one, so fired up my first loop of stage 1.
Proceeded to have an absolutely shit day.
I can feel the want for a creative impulse.
I wonder to what extent the subliminal impacted my aura and interactions with others. I found myself being less guarded, more loose with what I wanted to say, not caring about having a filter, which can be concerning in a corporate environment. I said quite a bit of shit that I kind wish I didn’t.
First impression is that this sub reminds me of Stark but without being unhinged.
Really want to run this sub and explore my creative self, but I can’t lie and say that I’m not concerned with the impact it could have to my lifestyle.

Renaissance Man is a creative title, but it is also an alpha title with outward facing scripting. This what I’ve been discussing across a number of threads, that we’ve been focused on “inner cultivation” scripting for awhile. Now it’s time for people to see what ZPU can do with more outward facing, driving titles.
Remember that the Renaissance Man is a liberator – they bring “shocking” energy into the world for the purposes of creating something new, which means going against what society deems “acceptable” at times. And generally speaking, a corporate environment is one that is full of unspoken “rules” regarding behavior.
So yes – just like with titles like Nouveau R.I.C.H. (a disruptor archetype), or Emperor – use restraint when using these titles (especially the upcoming upgrades) in regards to speech. Something like Summertime or Peace will naturally pair well with those who run Renaissance Man (or a related title) and experience this.

I’m considering essence modules from The Renaissance Man Module pack, as my cores are Chosen and Emperor: Reforged. I’ll be using customs exclusively from now on, as essence modules seem to replicate core functionalities without overcomplicating a custom stack.

This feels like a good time to ask, since it’s relevant to your above reply: do you think we’ll eventually see a full “academic alpha” title? Basically, something like new Renaissance Man, but catered to the Limitless line? I mention “full” because I know that new Limitless has elements of this.

Had to delete my prior post, since I missed your last line about “full.” Yes, I can confidently say that the upgrade to Limitless will include this in some form.

Yes, I mean in the same way that this is a two-stage title that addresses the full archetype of the creative, giving breadth and depth to both the “engine” and its outward expression, culminating in the Creative Alpha.
For me, I’m very attracted to the Limitless line and it’s relevant to my life, but I’ve found it hard to make room in a stack for them in the shorter term. Because “okay, I want a masculine foundation title. Ah, and let’s target these blockages. Hmm, some extra productivity would be good. How about some nervous system regulation?” That’s before we even get to stuff like wealth, relationships, and the like.
And I’ve realized that even a title like The Stabilizer moves the needle on cognitive tasks, if only through becoming more organized, eliminating leaks, building routines, etc. While at the same time having wider benefits.
That’s one of the things that makes this update very interesting. Even just in your posts, you’ve reported everything from being more creative to turning that into output to dealing with blockages to bread tasting really good lol.
There’s curiosity, creativity, mindset, daily experience, identity, and output, all in one, all tailored to that specific archetype. And then there’s a whole other stage with other applications.
I think that becomes a lot easier to fit into a stack and more versatile, whether someone wants both stages, one, or an essence. So, I’m very much looking forward to something like that applied to Limitless.
