Marks is a philosopher and scholar of new media and film.[1] She is the Grant Strate University Professor at Simon Fraser University (SFU).[2] Previously, she was the Dana Wosk University Professor of Art and Cultural Studies at SFU.[3] Among her theoretical contributions is the concept of haptic visuality, according to which a spectator's contact with media is conceived of as touching, as opposed to seeing.[4] Marks is also a curator, and has developed exhibitions of Arab cinema.[5]
