The development of Cold Genius is taking him to four different locations, where he expects to find the secret of life: Mantua (Italy), Salvador (Brazil), Calcutta (India) and Cologne (Germany).

During each Live-Event, Cold Genius will leave the virtual world of the Internet and will make contact with the real world.

Virtopera as a global site presented in local reality: Each visit of Cold Genius in the real world is a Live-Event on the Internet, which means that Cold Genius is really on stage in Mantua, Salvador, Calcutta and Cologne, while at the same time present on the virtual Internet stage.

The Music: Each location has a separate cultural identity consistent with a musical identity of specific features and characteristics. It is through the music in each cultural setting that Cold Genius hopes to be introduced to the secrets of life, he considers the music his magic wand. During the Live-Events, musicians and singers in San Francisco and Hamburg are on stage together, via technology made possible by the Virtual Studio of the firm Steinberg and Res-Rocket - a veritable global Live-Performance.
