If there is something about acting, please do not reduce it to flm acting. I would like to do something that works for theater acting, improvised theater, and other performance arts (standup, clowning, dance,…).

- enhanced hand-eye coordination
- general dexterity / body-kinesthetic intelligence improvements
- ability to switch focus from micro to macro / detail to overview (similar to Seeing the Whole Strategic Map in Emperor: The Art of War)
- deep understanding of each of the components you use in your art/craft and how they interact with each other
- understanding iterative processes, their potential, and their impact on your projects
- general improvements of your senses through focus (similar to what happens with prolonged use of Limitless: ZONE)
- generating inspiration through information/impressions from all senses / maybe crossing into synesthesia

- expand on the work ethic inherent in the OG Renaissance Man – where BL:ITW is letting abstract ideas and understanding bubble up from calm contemplation, RM should be the active counterpart where understanding and novelty come from outcome-independent and fearless experimentation
- foster broad and at the same time immersive interest in all manners of unrelated fields, which leads to the creation of a much tighter knowledge web, where every one thing you know is a thread that overlaps with others and new information is much easier integrated and understood as a new thread between existing threads, creating novel and unusual overlaps
- use of tools in novel ways – what is this thing in front of me? A chair? A ladder? A thing that lets me spin around? Can I take it apart and use the spring to build a leaping mechanic frog? Can I use the spinning motion as a centerpoint to create big circles in a field?
- be not only awed by nature and science, but use them as inspiration – can I make a piece of art by copying the micro-structure of a butterfly wing? Can I gauge the Hausdorff dimension or the fractal dimension of the field or forrest in front of me to create a piece of work that mimics the calmness and rejuvenation of nature? Can I use superwood instead of roasted wood to make even more resonant guitar necks?

And if you’re interested in Renaissance Man, NOW is the time to start giving more ideas.

RM could be the perfect opportunity for a pure “celebrity” title while also keeping with the theme of being a RM.
Currently Stark and ASBR and VIBES are the only titles that actually handle fame, but each has it’s own lane that might not work well for other pursuits.
What about actors? What about painters? Sculptors? Artisans? What about polymaths? People who do a little of everything, and require a fame component for their work to succeed?
Think about the musician who owns a clothing brand.
The sculptor or glass blower that’s building a social media following to expand their reach and get their business off the ground.

Perhaps im wrong, but you are focusing renaissance Man a lot in art with vibes, writer, ultimate artist, but a true renaissance Is more like technology, body, innovation, invention, investigation, integration,

We already live in a world saturated with creativity and self-expression. There is more art, music, film, photography, design, writing, and content being created than at any other point in history. Simply being creative isn’t enough.
New RM should produce the kind of work that makes people stop and think, “I’ve never seen or heard anything like this before.”
Something so visually, intellectually, or emotionally striking that it establishes its own creative territory. Not just standing out from the crowd, but existing on a level all its own.
If the original Renaissance helped humanity move from the Medieval Era into the Modern Era, then I’d love for New RM to embody that same spirit. Creating art so groundbreaking that it makes the works of Leonardo and Michelangelo look primitive.
It’s been a year since I posted in this thread. Reposting some of those ideas.

Tarantino once said that he can’t write poetry on a computer and that his pen is his antenna to God. It just flows. It’s just a receiver.
Michael Jackson similarly told a colleague that he was channeling his higher power late at night and that if he stopped to get some sleep then God would give the ideas to Prince.
Would be cool if there is a feature that allows you to be a creative antenna and receive transcendent ideas from God, the universe, whatever you prefer, and transmit that creativity to the world as a creative vessel.
I mean I get creative ideas all the time, but I never think the divine is sending them to me. I feel like Tarantino and Michael were surprised by what they received to the point that they knew it wasn’t just them getting good ideas. They were receiving something more. Something bigger than them.
So this feature would be very obvious to the user because the ideas would be so beyond them. They wouldn’t say, “I just came up with this great idea”. They would say, “I just received this unbelievable idea from a higher power that I could never in a million years get on my own, and now I must share this idea with the world.”

For someone who thinks that the idea actually came from the artist, that “feature” would be about being purposefully being confused about one’s own creative process. I would prefer not to have that and being able to own my ideas.

Well the whole point of Renaissance was the expression of light in what were considered relatively “darker” times. So what does it entail? Finding the courage within to express yourself even when you know the status quo is to suppress yourself, but not just that, to find a way to express which speaks to the subconscious and can bypass the superficial rules against free expression. So not just expression but understanding of the subconscious currents of power, desires, and fears to be able to speak that language. Anything can be art if you are an artist. I’d like the new RM to go deeper than just make beautiful paintings or utter captivating words.
Part of the reason I quite like Primal is that it connects me to my true expression, now I can be strategic and decide how and when to express myself, but atleast I can see what I truly want. I’d expect the new RM to be even better at that than Primal.

I think you’re missing the point of what I’m saying. It’s not about being confused with the creative process. I’m saying that when most people come up with an idea, they’re not attributing that idea to a higher power. When that lightbulb or eureka moment happens they’re not saying to themselves, “Thank you Universe. I am but a mere vessel and I owe it all to you.”. You may do this, but most people do not.
This feature would make it absolutely clear and obvious that a higher power is working though them because the idea they receive is so beyond them, so transcendent, that they would question how they even came up with it in the first place.
If you believe this to be the way the creative process works anyway then this feature would make everyone who runs New RM aware of it as well.

Life as art.
I like that. It could be an NSE feature.

That’s too much religious mumbo jumbo. Pair it with RoM, RoS or Alchemist if you want to feel as if you are a tool of a higher somethingsomething.
edit: I don’t mean that as a personal attack or anything. I would just like to keep the script free of any religious connotations.

I’m not sure what point I am supposed to have missed.
No offense taken. SC always says that they don’t use religion in their subs.
It wasn’t meant to be religious. Thats why I said.
I don’t care if people are religious or not. I’m not saying to believe in an old man sitting on a thrown in the clouds. I’m saying that there is something bigger than you or I governing this world. This universe. Whether that’s God, the Universe itself, Source Energy, a collective energy like The Force in Star Wars, whatever it is… there is something bigger than us. Things aren’t just the way they are with no rhyme or reason. I’m just suggesting that we tap into whatever that power is that gives great artists their creativity like the ones I mentioned early. And tap into it in such a way that we are literally gobsmacked that it came out of us.
We already have a similar feature in Beyond Limitless. Tesla, Tarantino, Michael, they were receivers.

I misread it. I thought when you said…
I thought the someone you were referring to was people in general. I didn’t realize you were speaking about yourself.

The tagline of Subliminal Club is “Become Legendary”. When you think of a Renaissance Man you think of Leonardo da Vinci. da Vinci became legendary. His name and his works have lived on centuries after him.
It would be great to have a Legendary Feature in New RM. Something that allows us to not only become creative, but become a Visionary, Icon, Genius, Trailblazer, Groundbreaker, Mind Bender, and Innovator that creates works that live on for all time. A feature that allows us to create transcendent art that becomes even bigger than the very medium we create that art in.
