Seeing that he only created the source of light, the Sun, on the fourth day, this must have been an impressive trick indeed.

I have no idea! If you are looking at only the physical reality in which we find ourselves, you find that darkness is (duh) the absence of light. The problem with that line of thinking, though, is the error of presumption. If we believe that God is also the author of physics, are we right to presume that we know how things behaved as He was codifying those laws? We know much about how things behave now, but what about before those laws came to be?
Incidentally, the intense, blinding, overwhelming flash of light which must of occurred if the theory of the big bang is correct must be nearly unfathomable. How bright a light would radiate from an explosion that is estimated to have produced a temperature of a billion billion billion degrees? (sorry about not having specific numbers - Google it to check it out)
If you wish to dismiss the big bang, on what basis do you do this? Incidentally, a beginning for something argues strongly in favor of causation. Do you have a better explanation for the sudden appearance of matter? The fact is, if you allow for a "singularity," then you must have an explanation of how it came to be. You can't say it just popped in from nowhere and be consistent with science, can you? Remember the proof against spontaneous generation?

A "how" question about God? Only He knows the answer to that one. I suspect it is beyond our understanding since we can't really comprehend a world without a separation between light and darkness.

with an egg separator. The darkness seeped through the little hole in the bottom of the cup, and the sun, like an egg yolk, stayed in the cup.

You need light to understand this. Looks like you are still in dark!

He already had the whole plan in his mind, I presume
Those who later described the whole thing, were not there, that's for sure, so they chose to put some drama in it, to make it more interesting.
I really wonder how it happened... Really.

This is dimensional. Hell is called "Outer Darkness". The Bible says that Hell was created for the devil and his angels. The word is past-tense, so this may be the moment it was created.
