Marxist art & videogame critic | @ilmanifesto @artribune | [email protected] | They/Them | My book UDO. Guida ai videogiochi nell'Antropocene is out!
Joined October 2013
My talk for @ArsGames' V Conference in Defence of Video game's Digital Rights is online (in EN). If games are the art of agency, and the Anthropocene is a crisis concerning human and nonhuman agency, are games and videogames the art of the Anthropocene? https://t.co/aJZF16txBw

@tomwarren Very strange. After prior Twitter leadership treated verification as a perk nominally reserved for “the elite” by but in practice handed out by Twitter employees to friends and cronies, Elon opened it up to everyone for a reasonable price. This was a good thing.

No Players Online - the full version of the viral abandoned online FPS horror game - is back on Steam. The game was falsely removed just after launching, which has severely impacted the studio's survivability. Please spread the word, and support it! ❤️ https://t.co/GRpmu3acAE
