Being the absolute ruler of my own place, i thought i could have the arrogance of being interviewed by my old pal PimpTastique...
PimpTastique:
(12:36 PM) who first started the turbulence between you and the current "I hate tachy" club? why did it start?
Tachy :
(12:39 PM) It started with a few people back at the V2 of SF-A, Dan Crout, SeanR, PJF and a few other nicknamed humans were complaining about the way i was running "MY PLACE" , u know the place i built and paid for to get it running :-)
Basically, they tried a few riots and so on, they even made me quit once, but when they weren't expecting it, i reclaimed everything and kicked their ass big time.
This is when the senate members that weren't doing shit for Scifi-Art were also kicked out, only there reliable ones remained...the kicked out guys, namely Ed Giddings, WarriorDL, Fabio and all the others that had their ego buised went to found the 3DGladiators...and so on and so on...
Tachy :
(12:40 PM) I also think people don't like the way i always tell them what i think without compromise or pat on the back, basically, I speak frankly and i am a very direct person.
Tachy :
(12:40 PM) of course a lot of these guys never liked me too because of my abilities to produce better Trek models than them in 100 times less time...that's gotta hurt somewhere...
ok, next !
PimpTastique:
(12:41 PM) you have a lot of 3D talent, you have created some simply amazing meshes, including some of the best trek ones...then a few months back trek was evil. You changed your tune..did a full 180. Why? was it an epiphany?
Tachy :
(12:42 PM) Because i was so fucking disappointed by what they did for 7 years with voyager, that is the bottom of crappy science fiction...
what also made me change was all these guys thinking they could go work for paramount by just being able to put 2 cylinders on a sphere...this is disgusting.
PimpTastique:
(12:43 PM) but why the sudden departure?
Tachy :
(12:43 PM) basically i decided not a long time ago that i was nobody's slave and that i shouldn't be a Trek slave by feeding the myth in exchange for all the bullshit they made on TV
Tachy :
(12:43 PM) when you realise these people make billions because of you, me and others and literally brainwash us to a certain point.. it's disgusting
PimpTastique:
(12:44 PM) you claim that people told you that you had an ego and so you accepted it. but beyond being french isn't it true that having such a big site (SFA) and being better than your detractors and being able to do what they couldn't created a massive ego?
Tachy :
(12:46 PM) of course.
an ego is just that :
you end up believing you're good because everyday you have 1000 persons telling you so, including some guys that work in CG studios and scifi production staffs
PimpTastique:
(12:46 PM) so why not transition to CG as a career?
PimpTastique:
(12:46 PM) you know guys at Foundation Imaging... so why not make the leap that seems so inevitable?
Tachy :
(12:46 PM) besause it's a hobby, and i never thought i was good enough to make a career of it anyway.
i'm having fun with it.
Tachy :
(12:47 PM) see previous answer :-)
PimpTastique:
(12:47 PM) you became a big star, and are still a huge member of the 3D community, but how do you innovate so that 5 years from now people talk about Tachy?
Tachy :
(12:49 PM) I don't know, maybe nobody will know who i am in 5 years from now...maybe in a year...i 'll tell you something, i 1 year from now this site will probably disappear and something else completely different will be at its place...i hate routine.
PimpTastique:
(12:50 PM) what is the one thing people misunderstand about you most? how did people get that misunderstanding about you?
Tachy :
(12:50 PM) this is why i was resetting the Scifi-Art community and team every 6 months, i hate the routine.
Tachy :
(12:51 PM) I don't have reply to that for 2 reasons :
1 i like to be mysterious and unpredictable
2 i am very satisfied of how things are right now :)
PimpTastique:
(12:52 PM) ok. talk about a hostile interviewee... ;)
There are people like myself that have a glimpse of Cyrille LeFevre, but is Tachy a complete internet persona, a glimpse of you, or the real you?
Tachy :
(12:53 PM) It's the real me alright.
PimpTastique:
(12:54 PM) are you fueled by your detractors? do you do things just to spite, antagonize, annoy, etc them?
Tachy :
(12:54 PM) both :-)
and i think that when there's nothing else to fuel things, i can create myself a few detractors until the real ones arrive :-)
PimpTastique:
(12:55 PM) is this all just part of some master plan where Tachy is playing us all like marionettes?
Tachy :
(12:56 PM) i don't think that the talented people are marrionnettes, the others that can't think for themselves so they form clubs, yeah they are certainly marrionettes :)
PimpTastique:
(12:57 PM) do you actually trust anyone on the net or have bad experiences with people like Craig made you not totally trust anyone you only know electronically? i mean can you really trust an e-friend?
Tachy :
(12:58 PM) oh man, i trust a lot of people, especially the two guys i 've never seen in my life i'll met in australia in 3 days :-)
PimpTastique:
(12:58 PM) haha. are you excited by making huge jumps like that?
Tachy :
(12:59 PM) yes, finally, something exciting happening LOl
PimpTastique:
(1:00 PM) do you have big secretive future plans or are you mostly improvising?
Tachy :
(1:00 PM) I have been improvising for 29 years, and i intend to do so until the last minute of my life.
PimpTastique:
(1:01 PM) When will the SFA forums re-open?
Tachy :
(1:01 PM) not within the next 6 months...
after that, i guess anything can happen :)
PimpTastique:
(1:02 PM) You are a talented 2D artist, but no one ever recognizes this? Is it because you tend to only show your 2D skills when they are related to your 3D work (i.e. textures)?
Tachy :
(1:03 PM) i am not worth half a dog's shit at 2D :-)
PimpTastique:
(1:04 PM) what do you want to do for a job?
Tachy :
(1:06 PM) nothing.
i have decided to stop having jobs.
I will only have fun now, having a job means you're incarcerated in a social and "common" system everybody tends to believe because they had their brains sucked dry by corruption, dreams and fantasies...
PimpTastique:
(1:06 PM) i know SFA used to keep you from a social life, but do you get out now and meet the lovely ladies or are you still chained to the computer?
Tachy :
(1:07 PM) i've never been chained to a computer...i am chained to what i like to do, it's as simple as that :-)
and yes i see a lot of people and go out too...i mean like going out everyday means anything...i go out when i need to go out :-)
PimpTastique:
(1:09 PM) one final question - where will you be in 5 years? where will the internet be in 5 years? how long until we have monkeys piloting space shuttles to take prisoners to the salt mines on the planet Xortek where evil mutant ants make human slaves mine 20 hours a day?
Tachy :
(1:10 PM) i don't wanna know where i'll be
i believe we won't be in space for real ( meaning, out of earth orbit ) for another century, humans are crap at making scifi real, because there are other problems to solve before giving orgasms to Trek addicts :-)
PimpTastique:
(1:12 PM) will you ever like trek again? will you ever stop harassing the trekkers? do you feel proud that you are so well known and that only people who are famous tend to have "enemies"? You personally fuel many sites, how does this make you feel?
Tachy :
(1:14 PM) will you ever like trek again?
probably, if they kill the franchise and move on to another cash cow
will you ever stop harassing the trekkers?
no, they are fun to harass
do you feel proud that you are so well known and that only people who are famous tend to have "enemies"?
yes, very.
You personally fuel many sites, how does this make you feel?
it makes me feel rather important :)
