Adam Elliott Rush

SCIQI is the creative and technical practice of Adam Elliott Rush, and it grew into a network of partner studios and specialists. Adam works at the intersection of software, design, music, and publishing: he helps build the software SCIQI ships — client websites, SaaS platforms, and SCIQI’s own audio plugins — and has managed and grown client web presences for over a decade, including a legal practice that now ranks among the largest in California in its field. He is co-owner of PRISMOTIC, a 3D animation and audio studio whose members’ combined portfolios include trailer work for Hulu and Disney+, Disney+ Korea title sequences, and commercial work for Samsung and LG; Adam’s own composition and sound work spans games, theater, and K-pop promotional videos with millions of views.

In games, his projects include the biological real-time strategy game Cell Wars and a relationship-building card game built on the GRACE leadership and communication framework; and he is Creative Director at Mjolnir Software, the independent studio behind the galaxy-scale strategy title A Galaxy in Flames. On the publishing side he has structured, edited, and laid out more than forty books, including a title with Inner Traditions / Simon & Schuster. Alongside client work, SCIQI incubates its own ventures in research infrastructure and creative technology. When you work with SCIQI, you work directly with Adam from first call to finished result.

Ideas arrive fast around Adam, and the useful ones get broken into small, achievable steps the same day. What he cannot build himself, he knows who can; much of SCIQI’s network began as people he worked beside and kept close. The traits colleagues name first: curiosity, candor, momentum, and a habit of seeing things through.
