I find the idea of needing music very interesting. I never really feel that I need music. Like, I can enjoy movie and game soundtracks, and I feel like they add to the atmosphere. But when working, I have no problems working and focusing in silence. I don't need background music, and I don't need to hear the radio playing. I actually prefer silence. But I've noticed many people consider silence very uncomfortable. I think silence is associated with boredom, and boredom is something people would rather avoid.
- konart 6y agoI don't think this has anything to do with boredom. I'm can concentrate in silence but I still find it uncomfortable simple because: a) No additional stimulus b) Silence is easy to break. Both at home and in the office. And sudden noise during this silence kills concentration for me for good.
