'There is no such thing as an empty space or an empty time. There is always something to see, something to hear. In fact, try as we may to make a silence, we cannot'. (Michael n.d.).- John Cage

John Milton Cage or as we know John Cage is an American musician his music style is silence. Cage usually use piano to perform his silence performances. Cage uses silence to express the atmospheres and describe everything. He tries to remonstrant that there is no silence. In this world, you will hear every sound even silence sound. Where you can hear the sound of silence? The sound of silence is everywhere in our daily life. For example, your deep down feeling or your mind.

In this project ‘sound and ambience’ I use one of Cage track called ‘4’33’’’. The meaning behind of this song is the piece was called 4'33"—for the three silent movements totaling four minutes and 33 seconds—and it was composed by John Cage. It seemed like a joke. In fact, it would redefine music. (Lucas Reilly 2017). In this project, I want to remonstrant the sound of silence by use John Cage technique to use silence to describe and conveys atmosphere the situation and his feeling.

In sound clip, I use to represent my work through the video. The hardest thing the use this technique of the sounds that one listens to when silences is performed is how to make or represent the atmosphere or what are we really try to present through the silence make it have content not just show the silence. How to represent and describe the atmosphere.  

Cage use the technique of silence through the performance and use this for convey the atmosphere. The silence sound make me feel confuse and questionable all the time. It one of the amazing sound. There is no sound but it is the best way to describe the atmosphere and feeling such as loneliness.   

This diagram represent about 'simple but full of question'

What I try to represent in my sound clip? In this work I want to use the sound of silence to represent of the loneliness. In the busy city but why you still feel lonely?

The story of this video is the journal ' way back home' in term of loneliness. As everyone know that city is a place of busy life and alway noisy or full of people but why sometime when go or stay with this kind if that place we still feel empty and lonely. It not suppose to be like that we suppose to have the feeling f fun and get some attention from thousand of people around there. However, have you ever realize that sometime why you feel more important feel like you are not alone when you are alone in the same time why you feel empty and lonely when you when full of people.
