Nicole Starosielski examines undersea communication cable network, bringing it to the surface of media scholarship and making visible the "wireless" network's materiality. She argues that the network is inextricably linked to historical and political factors and that it is precarious, rural, aquatic, territorially entrench and semi-centralized.
