"The Machine Stops is based on E.M.Forster's ([a848812]'s) sci-fi classic, a prophetic tale written in 1909 predicting a future living in isolated, subterranean cells, communicating with others only by the use of a personal screen.
Every need is controlled and catered for by the omnipresent machine, which inevitably begins to break down.
An atmospheric, musical interpretation beginning in tunnels deep beneath the earth. The struggle to escape and find a way to reach the outer surface is a utopian dream, which could become a dystopian nightmare...
Forster's visionary masterpiece provides chilling warning of the dangers of isolation, reliance on computer technology and the effects on society." - Inner Sleeve Notes.
