Who are the 4 Genious?

Posted August 23, 2010 by Sivi Uitto 2 Thumb-ups 

Operatives are asking little help from the community and new members. The plot need fresh ideas and suggestions who would the 4 genious characters be? Should they be characters from ancient history or closer to our own time or even both? Could Elvis be one of them or Mother Theresa or should we stick with the more ancient ones like Elisabeth I or Leonardo Da Vinci?

And of course what is God?

I think your idea about a wide range sounds good. That way we can create more suspense to the scenes and I personally like the message it gives that there have been people from all over the World who have had a great influence.

I think god should either be represented by a dual-voice, like Benjamin Britten uses in his canticle Abraham and Isaac or by orchestral sound. Both could work.

For the geniuses... I think the widest range of cultures, genders and time periods possible should be represented. The suggestions made originally are good, but quite expected. How about something incredibly surprising but would make sense? People who excelled in the various capacities described, but perhaps differently?
