Liana Silva

Managing Editor Liana Silva is a PhD candidate in the English department at Binghamton University who recently relocated to The Midwest. Until recently, she taught first year composition at a community college in Kansas City, MO. She is currently working on her dissertation, a study of representations of New York City and the idea of home in the cultural works of African-Americans and Puerto Ricans. Liana comes to sound studies from the angle of pop culture and cultural studies, where she wonders about the music we listen to and its sociocultural implications. When she’s not writing and thinking deep thoughts, she is busy defending pop culture on an intellectual level, recording her daughter’s latest babbles on her iPhone, listening to her favorite podcasts, and asking people where “home” is.
