Blog -6,Matrix

Matrix……..

Well, I think sexuality and the gender is not that important in the matrix because you will see the lady named Trinity who’s a member of Morpheus’ group. She has the ability of what the other member could do expect the chosen one, Neo. All they do is simply install the programs right away for whatever they need. Also the race is not important. it can’t make you any better whatever race you are . I know there are still some redneck people who races the other people but it’s doesn’t have any profit of being white. Let’s say there is a race between a 90years old white man and 20 years old black man. Who do you is going to win?? Of course black man wins because god didn’t give any special ability to those white people. We all are the same. Well, Neo is white in the Matrix but his character doesn’t necessarily need to be white. He could be Black, Asian, Spanish or anyone in the world. I would live in the matrix because you could be anyone and see things differently than the way we see things now. Even today, almost all of us are cybrog because we are addicted to our daily stuff and most of them are related to machine directly or indirectly. Let’s say you have the relationship with the machine even before you wake up every day. The alarm which is a machine that wakes you up every day and before you go to school, you have to check the weather on the computers or cell phones or TV and all of them are machine. You have to take a bus or a train which are all made of machine to go to school or work. When you get to school, professors teach you with computers and projectors in almost every class. You go back home by taking the bus or train and after that you watch the TV or game for fun. After that you do homework or do research on the computer and you set the alarm before you go to sleep. You can see we are totally relying on the machine these days. Humans and machines are not the same though because machines are weaker in some point and humans are weaker in the others. Humans are the only kind of animal that can make machines and that’s why we are above other animals. But Machines are faster and do almost non mistakes because they were programmed since they were built. Humans are the builders of machines but we can do mistakes because we were not programmed by anyone. I don’t think we are not living in the matrix now but may be in next 50 years. At that time, we may be able to program humans also as I believe. I don’t really have any idea of what the characters’ names and nicknames mean but one thing I think that they are not the same have the names we have today. Those names are may be the names of the machines.

  1. I would suggest you do some more research you could have took one question and did a whole essay even about the nick names. Theres many websites that tell you exactly what they mean its just a click away. http://www.voidspace.org.uk/cyberpunk/matrix_spirit.shtml

  2. I disagree about your statement that humans are stronger than machines. Even though we have built them, you said yourself our lives are entirely based on machines and technoledgy and will only continue to get worse as new things come out.

  3. Good job in explaining our relationship with machines, i even forgot that we use a machine while we sleep and depend on it to wake us up. But its a little unclear to me as to why you would want to live in the matrix, its a false reality that doesnt really exist, so just to understand a bit better, be a little more specific :)
