Invisible Voice: Tackling Disinformation and Misinformation

Invisible Voice is an artist-led project to develop a free browser plugin that empowers individuals to make informed decisions about the websites and companies that they use. A small button in the browser, that when clicked, will open a pop-up, including: the owners, the parent company, any sister and affiliated companies, political leanings, revenue, assets, income, number of employees, inclusivity and diversity statistics, environmental practise, cheap labour, and much more information on the company’ practice.

The project will build upon the prototype developed with the support of STARTS in MOTION (March – September 2021) and GuestRoomMaribor (December 2020), with the goal of developing, testing, iterating, and launching a non-intrusive browser plugin.

The culmination of an EU Horizon Grant, saw artist Mark Farid present his research at IRCAM-Centre Pompidou at the heart of Paris.
