Alisha Matova Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 "Machinimatrix-forum ? Realy ?" Well yeah! Not here on these forums, but connected to your site. Forgive me if I am underestimating the scope of driving a forum. But, I think it be great to have a place to ask questions about your tutorials or pose subjects for more tutes. I'd certainly read and contribute. PS@ Void. Not yet, but I'm hoping! Worst case, we bribe Bloggy Linden to make us a "Dear Gaia" section here. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're getting a machinimatrix forum, we also need one for machinimators. Let's keep it gender equal. (Of course we could just stick with the existing gender-neutral machinima forum ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Void Singer Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I wasn't aware it was meant to be read as gendered? I read matrix: system of interconnected values, and not -matrix: female practitioner. PS I wasn't aware -or was specifically gendered either... PPS english really is a fun but crazy language Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPS english really is a fun but crazy language I've never seen the term machinimatrix before, only machinima. Which is a contraction of machine + cinema, imho, so I don't think that machinimatrix is correct or commonly used. I jokingly assumed that it might be the Latin ix/or gender denominator that is used in Dominatrix / Dominator (which means ruler / rulerin or lord / lady, whereas Domina / Domus means Mistress and Master). Also in Gladiatrix / Gladiator (yes, there were female ones too. More or less the Ancient Roman version of mud wrestling, only with sharp-edged weapons. Mud wrestling to the death, so to speak. Talk about gender equality). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alisha Matova Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Machinamatrix.org is Gaia and Co's blender tutorial website. Since we were taking about forums, I took the liberty to poke her about starting one connected to their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Void Singer Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 so I did misunderstand the point of the original post on that (a subforum aimed at the tutorials offered by a single existing website) @Istara: I understood the derivation, I was just thinking that in modern context the latter wasn't generally considered gendered (or at least not to my thinking)... obviously the example you gave runs contrary to that... /end sidebar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivienne Schell Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I doubt that Linden lab can charge tenthousands of people for maintaining a superminority geek subforum, tho the superminority is suppervocal. And obviously Autodesk as well as Blender.org can answer and help user questions regarding 3D modelling in a much more sufficient way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacki Silverfall Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 I believe I stated that I have tried the other forums and get more and faster help here. A sub forum for 3D artist of all programs would be in my opinion very productive. Signed, Superminority geek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivienne Schell Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Aren´t there enough in-world activist groups? I think there are. Well, you might need to log into Second Life then, and not only for importing some models. :matte-motes-sunglasses-3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
