The contributions to this issue of /Imaginations/ address the 
relationship between digital data and physical place. How is the economy 
of data storage organized in and across communities, regions, nations, 
and states? How does the industry reprise old relationships and forge 
new ones? How are boundaries and borders inscribed and encountered by 
users and creators along the way? How is information technology (IT) 
infrastructure built into environments, shifting social and natural 
terrain? By foregrounding spatial relations and infrastructures, these 
essays draw connections between globalized geographies of media 
distribution and localized impacts of IT on the ground.
