LACS Chair and Associate Professor Alejandra Bronfman contributed a chapter in Audible Infrastructures titled, “Glittery: Unearthed Histories of Music, Mica, and Work”.

"Audible Infrastructures primes us to listen for music's resonances far beyond the specific moment and site of audition. This powerful collection articulates how each stream on Spotify, each strum of the guitar, each flip of the LP, each voice raised in protest is networked across time and space to the forests, mines, plantations, power plants, and dumping grounds where music is made material." - Shannon Mattern, Department of Anthropology, The New School
