Hello, all…
I’m having a mini-brain fart. Is it the Mormon branch of Christianity that uses “Architect” as a name for God, or am I misrembering?
Speaking as a Mormon, I am not familiar with this usage, other than in the sense that God could be called the “Architect of the Universe.” Certainly not used as a name or title in the sense of Lord, Savior, etc.
I was pretty sure my memory was wrong on this point…hence the question. I’m trying to narrow it down to the right answer. Googling suggests that Masons use the term; I’m wondering if any other group does.
The Matrix? 
Perhaps you’re thinking of the Freemasons. I believe they refer to the Grand Architect of the Universe (or something) in their rituals.
Well, if you meann “the otherworldly realm whence come the sparks of all transformers, and yea, the souls of organics too,” as referenced in Transformers: Beast Wars, I can get behind that.
On the other hand,

if you mean, “the computerized complex using humans as batteries,” I cannot. 'cause it’s not used as such in the 1999 movie, and there were, of course, no sequels, as the Wachowskis decided they’d rather forgive the millions the studio offered rather than make a pair of incoherent movies that would despoil the memory of the original.

It’s the Masons who call God the Great Architect.
I believe you and Friedo are right. Many thanks.
To throw you a visual: God As Architect of the Universe. Ca. 1220 AD, Paris. From a moralized bible. So, the Masons, and at least one Gothic artist.
