Written in 1909, the sci-fi short story "The machine stops" by E.M. Forster was for it`s time as visionary as nothing else. It imagined a future where people do live in separated and isolated spaces while exchanging idea`s through metal screens all day long. Public gatherings have been abandoned long ago due to their unpractical nature.

Being accompanied by futuristic tunes played by e-mertz, Moritz and Lotte will philosophize about the parallels between this story and how we live now. And how the pandemic has brought us closer or further from the state described in the story.
