I was going to say I wanted to see video of it in action, but after search on YT (video was not much more than your picture) in the recommendations I saw the donkey bike (aka velocinno, or velocino?) that looks like a more interesting small (but odd) bike.
Odd because small front wheel (normal back wheel) and optional wraparound-behind-rider handlebars. Both gray footage (and British narration) and also many people chopping 2 bikes together (a child’s bike for the front wheel) to make it.
No idea on how it is to ride (at least inverted behind-rider) though.
EDIT: Seeing video of the non-reverse-mounted handlebars, I’m not sure the claim about changing posture is even true (that’s just about handlebar height, and it seems same either way). I think I’d prefer typical even just for mirror/shifting/bell/etc and mount-dismount (hop-back and tilt-bike-up if-needed).
I mentioned in another comment retro-direct drive, pedalling backwards for the low gear would make something like this even weirder/cooler.
