Screen Bodies is a multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal that is devoted to the interface of art, science, and technology. The journal examines how bodies are entangled with screens and represented on them. It features critical, theoretical, and empirical methods used in the diverse fields comprising the humanities, social sciences, computer science, communications, and the arts.

Screen Bodies is a publication where scholars, creators, and scientists come together to map new media ecologies with an eye toward the aesthetic, ethical, and political dimensions of emerging technologies as well as to matters of design, programming, engineering, and performance.

Areas of focus include but are not limited to: media arts, cinema, photography, gaming, internet culture, virtual reality, augmented reality, performance art, trans studies, queer theory, feminist theory, curatorial studies, science and technology studies, and digital humanities.
