Description
"This remarkably original collection offers a much needed intervention, centering the role of rural spaces to media and infrastructure. The way the contributors engage with issues of uneven connections and energy transitions, and with rural entanglements within global supply chains and planetary mines, is superb."-Rahul Mukherjee, author of, Radiant Infrastructures: Media, Environment, and Cultures of Uncertainty "A rural of omnidirectional connectivity; sites of roiling metabolisms of extraction, resistance, and media intensiveness; a rurality of emergence and theoretical complexity. This volume expands the boundaries of rural spaces, lives, and politics as media ruralities that are peopled and place-based, enduring and vital, and essential for research addressing contemporary debates in global media studies."-Rafico Ruiz, author of, Slow Disturbance: Infrastructural Mediation on the Settler Colonial Resource Frontier
