The Future of Games is bleak! Or - it definitely feels like it. @magfest & @magwestofficial are integral & fundamental expressions of a shared culture of games.

So what happens when we compartmentalize ourselves into subgroups with distinct, subjective lived experiences? Engage in tribalism of games?

Does that sound silly? Or ... is it literally happening right now, as we speak?

This clip is a short part of my hour long presentation at MAGWest 2026. Thank you again for the privilege of an invite!

🎷 SAX TRANSMISSION: FUNK AT WARP SPEED 🚀

Our sensors detected dangerously high levels of funk during “Clock Tower” from Marvel vs. Capcom 2. The source? Our bandleader, @thegreat_avirex , going absolutely supernova on sax! 🎷🔥

Mission status: Funk levels critical. Fun levels maximum. Transmission complete. 🖖🏽✨
