Atlanta Traffic



Atlanta traffic is much like the sea. The sea, though, constantly flows. The sea provides a sense of calm, a sense of wonder - there are many songs extolling the power and grandeur of the sea. We never say that about the traffic. Traffic though has a grandeur. Especially when some of Philip Glass's music is in the background: serialism has the effect of enhancing the sense of flow and the speed, where everything is changing but remaining the same.
