In the UK late Friday night the BBC broadcast a one-off Muse gig that had been filmed over 2 days on 14th and 15th September 2019 at the O2 in London. I can't post a link to it as this is my first post on the .net SH forum. But it's called Muse - Simulation Theory.
I like the early albums of Muse but had lost touch with them so I wasn't aware of this latest work.
It seems the film has been produced for Muse themselves to compliment their album of the same name. It was a live gig full of high tech visual effects but included an underlying 'movie' between songs. Now from here this is largely my own interpretation of this 'movie' after watching the show only once, so others might see it differently or if I watch it again I may also see it differently.
Anyway...there was some sort of 'space force' investigating a paranormal anomaly that could perhaps be described as 'leakage' from another dimension or parallel universe. Heavy AI theme and the implication revealed later in the 'story' is that our world is just one of many simulated realms controlled by a 'mainframe'.
However...and this is the angle that interested me most considering the timing...there was also a virus outbreak in London. The 'mainframe' said it had detected a problem in our world and its solution seemed to be to reset our world (or reformat the hard drive if you will). The 'space force' seemed to be 'good guys' trying to prevent this happening but without particularly understanding what it is.
I won't ramble too much further however there were also a couple of very interesting lines from 'news reports', I may not have got them 100% right but something like "the virus is fake, there is no need to be afraid" and "the lockdown has ended and people are starting to leave their homes again". They also mentioned warnings about misinformation/fake news. Then at the end was some American dude having a rant (much like in the style of film They Live) about governments/'controllers' who have been manipulating us and turning us into nothing more than consumers. He then suggests that maybe AI has since taken over the role of our 'controller' without us even noticing.
As an aside, also found it quite surprising that the BBC broadcast this, given that they have very much been on the side of the globalist narrative and government propaganda around CV19/lockdowns/vaccine. As the general feel of the whole thing was that it was a warning to humanity. But of course maybe Muse have simply signed up to be controlled opposition
