SIlence of the Hyundai

I have chosen my car as a subject to study the mundane, the muffled, the quiet and the toned out sounds of my everyday life. My car is 1998 Hyundai Accent GSI Sport. It is old, refurbished and completely banal, however I spend a large portion of my day in my car in transit from school to home, to friends, to work, etc.

One main reason my car struck me as a perfect study is because more often then not, I drive without music or radio on. I enjoy the silence of the road at night when I am coming home late from studio or a friends. When I began to think about this notion of the 'silence within a car' I found it very interesting because the car is anything but silent.
