Working under the pseudonym Bill Posters, Barnaby Francis is an artist,
author, activist and disinformation-researcher. Using a network-based
approach, his artistic work interrogates persuasion architecture and power
relations as they exist in public space and online.
His pieces are collaborations that span across the arts, sciences and
advocacy fields on conceptual, interventionist, synthetic, digital,
photography and installation-based projects. In 2019 his synthetic (deep
fake) artworks featuring Mark Zuckerberg went viral, leading to global press
coverage and unexpected – and contradictory – official responses from
Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
