This commentary on William Jamieson’s article, ‘For Granular Geography’, which illuminates the granular relations of sand as it is transformed by capitalist urbanism, suggests that understanding what might constitute granular geographies requires further consideration of the multiplicities of granular material. It considers the manifold values of sand beyond its worth as an economic resource and explores the temporalities associated with the movement and fixity of sand. It goes on to argue that there is a need for renewed focus on the impacts of sand extraction for local communities and landscapes as well as for more substantive accounts of the myriad mobile choreographies of sand in processes of place-making.

对威廉·贾米森（William Jamieson）的文章“ For Granular Geography”的评论，阐明了沙子在被资本主义城市主义转变后的颗粒关系，表明了解可能构成颗粒地理的东西需要进一步考虑颗粒材料的多重性。它将沙子的多种价值视为其经济资源，并探讨了与沙子运动和固定有关的时间性。它继续指出，有必要重新关注采砂对当地社区和景观的影响，以及对在场所建造过程中无数种流动砂的编排进行更实质性描述的必要性。
