Rick Moss is a Brooklyn-based multi-disciplinary artist. He has authored three literary sci-fi novels. EBOCLOUD (2013, Aqueous Books), cited in scientific journals for its predictions of a coming “social singularity,” was included in the syllabus for a Duke University course, alongside William Gibson’s NEUROMANCER and Dave Eggers’ THE CIRCLE. TELLERS (2016) stitches together a series of short stories, cathartically told by residents of a communal farm who experienced a joint trauma. IMPOSSIBLE FIGURES (2020) centers on an ill-fated partnership between a conceptual artist and a self-destructive quantum theory physicist using looping narratives. Rick studied painting and printmaking at The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, creative writing via Tufts University, and earned his degree at California College of the Arts where he focused on video production and photography. Rick’s early career was devoted to design for print, video, animation, and web. He was a principal and co-founder of the online business publication, RetailWire.com, which he ran profitably for over 20 years and sold in 2023. At RetailWire, Rick oversaw the editorial department, as well as marketing strategy for such website sponsors as IBM, SAP, and Oracle. Rick’s editorials have appeared in USA Today and Forbes. He publishes his songwriting as Rock Moses on SoundCloud. For details on Rick’s creative projects, visit: rickmoss.art Rick Moss currently lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
