JO  - Afterimage: The Journal of Media Arts and Cultural Criticism
AB  - Mihailova examines deepfake satire as an underexamined but vibrant subgenre of AI art that turns face-swap technology into pointed social and political critique. Through projects targeting entertainment figures, tech entrepreneurs, and authoritarian leaders, she argues synthetic media holds progressive possibilities beyond its well-known harms, positioning the work within traditions of culture jamming and satire. It is a deeper, single-topic companion to her In Focus dossier on AI and the moving image.
