@smp colgo l'occasione per complimentarmi per la scelta dell'avatar. le sequenze con Wakko che ruttava brani celebri di musica classica erano dei tocchi di classe indimenticabili
@AleFra i pionieri alla frontiera. Brava gente, quella. Fuggiti dall'Europa, si sono messi a decimare la popolazione indigena per costruire le loro casette di legno nella prateria, devastando l'ecosistema per piantare il grano.
La loro mitizzazione, nella storia americana, è fondamentale per portare avanti una cultura basata sulla sopraffazione, sul mito del forte che prevale sul debole, sul denaro sovrano.
La violenza e la venerazione delle armi servono a instaurare una politica del terrore e dell'oppressione spacciata per grande democrazia individualista.
Gli americani hanno costruito il loro impero sullo schiavismo, somma della politica della violenza e del terrore, ancora oggi fondamentale per la loro politica di controllo e oppressione. Bella l'America, già.
Salve a tutti, non scrivo più molto qui sopra perchè ultimamente sono tutto preso da un nuovo hobby: creare indie games di dubbia qualità.
Se trovate l'argomento interessante, ecco il blog (in inglese) dove posto i miei pensieri su tutto ciò: https://telescope.ac/embestudios
In questo periodo sto studiando la protesta globale che si viene a creare in risposta all'invasione italiana dell'Etiopia. In moltissime città in tutto il mondo le persone manifestano, raccolgono fondi, fondano gruppi e reti per evitare che uno dei pochi stati africani ancora indipendenti cessi di esserlo. È una storia bellissima che intreccia antifascismo, anticolonialismo, panafricanismo.
The Khoikhoi and San are two different people, they are both called Khoisan because of their distinct click sound language. As opposed to San, Khoikhoi were both hunter-gatherers and pastoralists, the first pastoralists in Southern Africa. The San were hunter-gatherers.
San people are the oldest ethnic group in the world. Their territories span Botswana, Namibia, Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Lesotho and South Africa
The Khoikhoi were the first native people to come into contact with Dutch in the mid 17th century. As Dutch were settling for farming, the Khoikhoi were dispossessed of lands. Conflicts emerged against Dutch and some were exterminated, or enslaved and decreased in numbers.
The Dutch usually called the Khoikhoi ‘Hottentots’ because of the sound of their language. Today this name is considered a derogatory term. The San were referred by Dutch as ‘Bushmen’, this term today also is considered a derogatory.
The Khoikhoi kept herds of animals such as goats, cattle and sheep, like Fulani and Maasai, they were moving from one place to another looking for pastures. This means they erected semi permanent structures, which were made of thin poles covered with reed mats. Pots were made of wood with small handles to make them easier to tie on animal’s back. The clothes were made of skin animlas like San people.
Among the Khoikhoi the cattle were sign of wealth and they only ate a cattle that had died or had been stolen from their enemies. The animals were slaughtered only during important occasions like funerals or weddings. The women milked the cows and gathered wild plants from the veld and men killed game for everyday food. This clearly shows Khoikhoi as well as San hunted and gathered food, but also kept domestic livestocks.
Among the San, there were no class divisions, everybody was considered equal and they shared everything. In contrary, Khoikhoi society consisted of both rich and poor, as animals were signs of wealth which belonged to one individual. Wealthier Khoikhoi would willingly share things like milk to poorer members of their group.
Khoisan language is characterized by implosive consonants or ‘click’, which belong to different language family from Bantu.
Today the laws in Botswana doesn’t allow hunting anymore, and the small scattered groups in South Western districts are being incorporated with other ethnic groups.
From the movie, ‘The God Must be Crazy’Did you know? Nǃxau ǂToma, the Lead Actor of the movies, “The Gods Must Be Crazy” 1 & 2 based on the lives of the San people of Southern Africa was paid only $300 even though the movies grossed $60 million, he never saw the important of money though. He died at the age of 58 in 2003. He is Namibia’s most famous Actor.
Qualcuno da ste parti ha mai usato Unity per creare videogiochi - in particolare sparatutto in prima o terza persona?
#mastoaiuto
Vorrei creare un videogioco sparatutto in prima (o terza) persona ambientato in Europa e America Latina nel 19mo secolo, una cosa single player con una storia lineare, possibilmente con momenti cinematici che sono parte del gioco (le cutscenes le farei a parte come video separati).
Che programma mi consigliate? Ho visto che FPS Creator Classic è open source, ma è solo per Windows. Esiste qualcosa di simile ma multipiattaforma, che so, Unity è facile da usare?
