Isn't Deus Ex the name of a critically acclaimed RPG PC game from the early 2000's?...and you just added your favorite food to the end of it?... ------------- 1 Chronicles 13:7-9 Then David and all Israel played music before God with all their might, with singing, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on cymbals, and with trumpets. |

| no, it's an alteration of the latin saying "deus ex machina", meaning "god out of machine" |

Exactly... and it has its origin in ancient Greek and Roman theatre, when a god usually came on stage at the end of the play to solve the situation, and he was usually lowered from above on a platform using a pulley (therefore, a machine). Deus ex Pizza would literally mean 'god out of a pizza', which sounds a bit odd, but nice all the same.  |

well, that was kind of the intention, that oddity bit. the image of a slice of pizza being lowered onto a stage and solving everyone's problems with little to no explanation was just an absurd one that i thought fit the music i was trying to create. |
