Ok I know you wanted to not take the term too literally, I've avoided blood at all costs. But I think the term EVERYBODY has alot of milage in it. Whether that be playing with groups of people and crowds or places that people gather. I know NS is about epic nature themes (and recently the introduction of space too) but looking through alot of my ideas are about buildings and structures. It's always easy to bring the nature into this though, like you did with the trees on SQUARE ONE.

I started thinking about places that everybody gather, I think here you could either take an element of the building, or the whole thing, by not filling it with people you can hint at the idea of everybody rather than being explicit. Hotels and churches are two places I immediately think of.

With the hotel you could do some sort of isometric multiple room view. Roof taken off so you can see into each room (1). What I'm trying to describe is kind of like these (1 / 2), I guess kind of like that Habbo Hotel shit (1). Maybe have a different element of type in each. There are alot of possibilities here, although maybe straying from previous NS stuff, which has been simple.

Carrying on the theme of Square One EP, what with the Aztec and ancient epic nature taken into space / future. I guess the obvious with Egyptrixx would be use Ancient Egypt imagery pyramids, temples, pharoahs (1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6). All of which structurally could easily be developed into type. The space theme too.

Using egyptian imagery might be too obvious and contrived though. Obviously there are loads of other ancient symbols and structures available (for some reason I keep thinking The Lost City of Atlantis (1)).

But going back to the everybody idea, places that everybody gather and combining this with the ancient / epic. The traditional Roman Colosseum immediately springs to mind. It's definately an epic stage, lots of people gather there. With the arch ways, curves, tiers of seating, there is alot of scope for type to be built into the architecture (1 / 2 / 3 / 4). I think it translates into space and the future too, science fiction films often feature colosseums as stages for battles and trials... But again I wouldn't fill it with people, more a hint towards the 'everybody'. >>>
