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.LOL

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.
