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/.

It turns out that electrons are a bit like property: their value is tied to their location. A modest three-bedroom house in Manhattan could be valued at over $4.5 million, while an identical house in Frogballs Arkansas costs $8.50, asbestos included. This paper is a quest to find the world’s most valuable electrons. We began with intentions of making snide remarks about blueberries, but when we crunched the numbers, they told us a completely different story. Herein, we discuss our findings and present a grand unified electron pricing structure.
