Tim Sexton examines pinball's 'wife' meme as male bonding ritual, misogyny, and conscience proxy.
This humorous video essay breaks down and analyzes various examples of casual sexism in the pinball hobby by men and women who regularly refer to - the wife - a character who exists to promote male bonding in a male-dominated hobby: collecting pinball machines. The video is broken up into a 6 question structure. Who, what, when, where, and why is the wife? With the final question being: how do we destroy the wife. Since some posts about the wife are time while others are extremely hostile, different moods are established through the video essay to highlight the range in town that can be found throughout these posts and how they ultimately all funnel into negative feedback loops of unbridled anger. ~~~~~~~~ Social Media Links ~~~~~~~~ tiktok.com/timballs twitch.tv/timballs

Cut together a new Art of Pinball edit for the new Transformers machine with a heavy focus on my own sound design and mix work layered into my footage. Loud mechs, aggressive lighting, metallic impacts, and way too much granular synthesis. This is my way of translating media day into video. More mood, more motion, less talking. 📡 Twitch 📺 YouTube 📷 Instagram 📘 Facebook 👕 Apparel
