The Genre Roulette equivalent of the Renaissance Man, it basically means when one or several creators end up working with a multiple set of genres or even different forms of media.
So get this. One day you decide to watch a, let's say, some old science fiction movie. It got the main protagonists flying across space with their Cool Ship, shooting some bad guys with their frickin Ray Guns and then saving the day by destroying The Empire. Then the next day, you decide to watch a simple, Coming of Age Story about teenagers from The '50s, goofing around in their old retro cars or something like that. 'But wait!' What's the name of the director in the credits? George Lucas.
Huh...well that name sounds familiar. Then, you decide watch some other unrelated movie, about an bold adventurer archeologist and... Now hold on your seats! Produced by George Lucas? Again? But how... how could this fella be related to these different movies?!? They're not even the same genre! How could it be? Well, it appears that The Creator Is Genre-Prolific.
Perhaps they wanted to experiment with some new idea they have or even subvert the Creator Thumbprint by trying something that's considered different for what they usually do. Suprisingly, this is Older Than Radio, as many of the classical authors, such as Robert Louis Stevenson and Charles Dickens, didn't really bother to distinguish serious literature from speculative ones. Compare with Genre Roulette, which is applied to individual works, and Renaissance Man which covers jobs and occupations. See also Jack of All Trades and Omnidisciplinary Scientist. Contrast with Crippling Overspecialization and Creator's Oddball.
