Barbara Maria Stafford Ph.D. is the William B. Ogden Distinguished Service Professor at the University of Chicago. Her research pursues the multiple means of spatial presentation from the early modern period up to today's digital media. She works at the intersection of the imaging arts, the visualizing sciences, and performance technologies, including the body and embodied experience. Her recent essays examine the revolutionary ways in which the brain sciences are changing our view of the total sensorium and inflecting our fundamental assumptions concerning perception, sensation, emotion, mental imagery, and subjectivity.
Stafford's views have found an application in criticism of early mass media and multiple viewpoints, what she describes as, "cross-referencing material bits of distant reality".
