Open Access Policy

At The Demiurge, we believe that knowledge should be shared.

Each issue is first released as a complete, self-contained piece. When the next issue arrives, the previous one opens fully to the public on our website, free for anyone to read, revisit, and share.

This rhythm allows each issue its own season of attention while ensuring that, in time, every piece we publish joins our growing open archive.

Authors keep full copyright to their work. Once their issue moves into open access, readers are welcome to share and circulate the work for non-commercial purposes, so long as the author, and hopefully also the journal, are credited. If an author wishes to remove their piece from the archives, it will be removed. We just keep the right to acknowledge its prior appearance.

We encourage contributors to republish, perform, or reprint their pieces wherever they wish.
