Our Manifesto
We use creativity to challenge the status quo - in science, culture, and society. These seven ideas guide every project we choose and every story we tell.
Awareness is our Revolution.
We ignite the flames of consciousness to blaze through the darkness of ignorance. We envision a new paradigm of human coexistence within nature, culture, and science.
Science is our Beacon.
We shatter the walls of ignorance and deceit with the power of truth. Science is our guide in the relentless campaign against misinformation, advocating for a new age of education and ethical media.
Culture is our Conscience.
We envision a world rich in diversity and free from exclusion and division. We fight for a culture that celebrates all voices, embracing unity in difference.
Nature is our Mentor.
We stand as stewards of the wild. With reverence and insight, we unravel the truths of global crises and restore the sacred balance between humanity and the natural world.
Visuals are our Voice.
We project visions of change through the lens of digital media and new technologies. We seek to inspire the world with beauty, knowledge, and a new visual language of wisdom.
Change is our Purpose.
We break the chains of obsolete dogmas and enrich the world with the fusion of youthful innovation and the enduring wisdom of science, culture, and nature.
Visual Riot is our Manifesto.
We incite a rebellion of minds and spirits. Our manifesto is a clarion call to halt the destruction of the wild, counteract the erosion of science, dismantle societal divides, and forge new connections with nature and one another.
The Riot Method: Resonance Design
Visual Riot’s unique methodology is built on the idea that information alone doesn’t change minds - experiences do. We translate complex research and cultural knowledge into immersive formats that audiences can feel, remember, and act on. Our process moves from decoding complexity, to translating it into experiential prototypes, to designing for resonance - ensuring that every project creates impact far beyond its initial audience.
What we stand for
Truth
We fight disinformation by turning verified knowledge into resonant, public-facing media.
Impact
Everything we do is built to shift something - minds, systems, imaginations.
Innovation
We explore new formats, tools, and technologies to break old barriers.
Creativity
We combine storytelling, design, and experimentation to reach people where they feel.
Collaboration
We work across sectors and borders - with researchers, artists, and activists alike.
Meet the force behind the revolution
Visual Riot was ignited by Aleks Rydzkowska - but it’s never been a solo act. What began as a personal rebellion against bland media and broken systems has evolved into a cross-border creative studio driven by impact, experimentation, and truth-telling. We're artists, researchers, coders, curators - coming together to build bold formats for complex missions. Together, we riot to make knowledge felt, stories unforgettable, and ideas impossible to ignore.

The Collective
Visual Riot isn’t built on job titles - it’s built on purpose. For every project, we assemble a tailored group of collaborators: filmmakers, designers, coders, researchers, and radical thinkers. No bloated departments. No recycled ideas. Just the right people, doing the right work, for the right cause.
We believe creativity works best when it’s custom-built - not templated. That’s why every riot we start is powered by a coalition assembled to make it unforgettable.
