~~~ ANOTHER WORLD IS POSSIBLE ~~~ THE FUTURE IS NOW ~~~ WELCOME TO THE ARCHIPELAGO ~~~

Humanity is losing hope, hurtling headlong into the dystopic nightmares being fed to us on our screens. the stories we are being offered are sterile, disjointed and monolithic; causing fear, hopelessness, uncertainty, disconnection, and inaction. Our leaders lack vision, and our organizations and companies lack strategy. It feels like the world as we know it is crumbling. in times like these we need clarity on a collective dream of a more beautiful future. But most of us have been stopped dreaming.

it’s time to dream together again.

We DESPERATELY need images, narratives, visions, and experiences of the more beautiful FUTURES; our hearts know are possible.

Intelligent Mischief is a creative studio, multi-media imprint & speculative design lab. Operating at the intersection of Afrosurrealism, spatial design, and visual storytelling, the studio engineers immersive environments and high-concept public interventions designed to manifest collective visions and map post-capitalist futures.

Intelligent Mischief utilizes the Black radical imagination as a tangible design framework. The studio transforms physical spaces, media, and community geographies into living portals of liberation, marronage, and collective joy.

Globally recognized for its visionary approach to cultural production, Intelligent Mischief’s work has been incubated, commissioned, and supported by leading cultural institutions, including the New Museum (NEW INC), carnegie hall, and The Laundromat Project. The studio exists to prove that alternative, liberated worlds are not merely science fiction—they are actively under construction.


INTELLIGENT MISCHIEF IS a mood.
INTELLIGENT MISCHIEF IS a scene.
INTELLIGENT MISCHIEF IS a wave.
