Marjorie Franklin is a conceptual artist and a Professor of Conceptual Art at University of Minnesota in the U.S.A. She uses digital media in interactive installations. Previously, she has worked on CD-ROMs such as "Digital Blood", an interactive narrative comparing two mothers who create an artificial life construct and "She Loves It, She Loves It Not:Women and Technology" (a collaboration with Paul Tompkins, the late Christine Tamblyn and others). In the interactive computer/video and computer/audio installations she creates her work focuses on the implications of the culture of computer technology for humans living in industrialised countries. Christine Tamblyn once mentioned in a review [1] that Franklin had been influenced by the Cyborg theory of Donna Haraway.
