Will he or won’t he – form the first informal fluid band in the inner courtyard of Bachstrasse? Our new backend developer Ben has an infectious personality and plenty of music team experience. The latent but as yet unorganized enthusiasm for music in the fluidfamily could now break through along his relevant qualities as a tenor in the pub choir. #fluidfun. That leaves the imponderable factor of time. Because even if singing in a choir is not possible in these coronavirus times, nor is dancing – another of Ben’s passions – the easing of lockdown measures is foreseeable as the number of vaccinated people increases. And whether Ben still has time as a backend developer, family man, choir singer and dance enthusiast… in any case: fluid stands for work, fun and living space, and anything is possible there.
