Our publication contributes to the evolving practices of intimacy choreographers, intimacy directors, and intimacy coordinators, by publishing articles focused on theory and practice-based research related to the ways in which we perform and are performed upon by consent, intimacy, and lived power imbalances--onstage, on set, and in lived experience.

We publish Notes From the Field that center authors' opinions and experiences so that readers may learn from the multitude of artistic experiments conducted in our field, and we publish scholarly Articles that more deeply analyze theories and practices of consent-based performance.

The Journal of Consent-Based Performance promotes community-based learning among intimacy professionals. Our publication contributes to the evolving practices of intimacy choreographers, intimacy directors, and intimacy coordinators, by publishing articles focused on theory and practice-based research related to the ways in which we perform and are performed upon by consent, intimacy, and lived power imbalances--onstage, on set, and in lived experience.

We publish peer-reviewed Notes From the Field that center the authors' opinions and experiences, so that readers may learn from the experiments that our artistic community is conducting, and research-based Scholarly Articles that examine concepts of consent and agency in relationship to performance practices and pedagogy through more rigorous methodological and theoretical lenses.
