J. Immat. Sci. is an open-access, beer-reviewed scientific journal. The journal specialises in satirical, whimsical and frivolous papers from all areas of science, and possesses a global readership from Nobel Laureates to internet trolls, and everything in-between. Articles are published weekly, and complete volumes are published annually, both digitally and in printed form.

Hardcopies
We sell professionally-printed hardcopies of our journals through an Etsy store. These pictures link to the Etsy listings, the prices include postage to anywhere.
Patreon Sponsorship
We exist to make people laugh, and to shine some light and levity into the darkest corners of the dingiest labs. We’re not here to make money. We also like to pay real artists to make our most important figures. For these reasons, and also because we don’t make a profit on the sales of the hardcopies, its really handy when our readers chuck us a bit of change on Patreon. If you can spare a couple of dollars a month, we can use that to cover website hosting fees, pay artists, and buy weird chemicals to bake into cookies. You’ll get your name in the back cover of each volume, as a thankyou!
Sister Journal
J. Immat. Sci. is a sister-journal to the Journal of Astrollogical Big Data Ecology (JABDE). We are separate journals with different editors, but we share the r/immaterialscience subreddit and the website https://jabde.com/.
Some of our favourite figures:
The stochastic feasibility of human (Homo sapiens) aviation is investigated using two competing theories: density compression of human matter to less than 1.225 kg/m3, and localized atmospheric (Poisson) compression by a factor of 872. Mathematical models demonstrate that human density reductions (P = 1.36 × 10-1263) are slightly more feasible than atmospheric compressions (P = 10-10^-28), with both techniques pending further empirical validation.
