A Silent Drive West

A travel journal for Eidolon and the open road.

September 21 – October 6, 2026

One driver, one white Polestar 4, no talking. Sixteen days from Hawthorne, New York to the red rock of Utah and back, filmed in silence. The map below shows where Eidolon is right now.

Where is Eidolon

The map updates about once a minute while the car is in signal. Zoom in to see each stop, what it cost me to get there, and what I am listening to — or open it full screen.

There is a jukebox further down — put a song on the playlist I am driving to.

The series

New episodes go up as the drive unfolds. No narration, no music over the wind, just the road.

The first episode goes up once the drive begins.
