Your Research Deserves a 21st-Century Platform.

Traditional academic publishing is too slow, too rigid, and too disconnected from the artists and educators who need your work most. We've built a better model.

You've spent months, perhaps years, on your research. You've uncovered a vital insight, developed a groundbreaking methodology, or offered a critical new perspective. Now comes the most frustrating part: getting it into the hands of the people who can use it.

The traditional path is paved with obstacles: year-long review cycles, restrictive paywalls that limit your readership to a handful of elite institutions, and static PDF formats that fail to capture the dynamic, multimedia nature of the performing arts.

Your work is too important to be trapped in the past. At CENIE, we believe your impact should be as dynamic as your ideas.

The CENIE Solution: A Better Publishing Model

We have reimagined the academic publishing process from the ground up, creating a digital-first, peer-reviewed platform designed for speed, reach, and lasting relevance. When you publish with us, you don't just get a citation; you get a dynamic platform for your ideas.

Here's what makes our model different:

1. Accelerated Impact & Global Reach

Forget waiting years for your work to see the light of day. Our streamlined, digitally-native peer review process reduces time-to-publication by up to 60%. And with our commitment to open-access options, your research is immediately available to a global audience of scholars, students, and practitioners, free from the barriers of institutional paywalls.

2. A Richer, More Dynamic Medium

Performance can't be contained in static text. Our platform is built to showcase your work in its full richness.

📹 Embed High-Resolution Video

Demonstrate a specific movement or show a performance excerpt directly within your article.

🎵 Integrate Audio & Interactive Elements

Let readers hear the musical passage or engage with the data you're analyzing.

🔗 Connect Your Ideas

Link directly to supplementary materials, online archives, and other relevant research, creating a living document.

3. Future-Proof Your Scholarly Legacy

This is our most important innovation. We don't just publish your work; we structure it for the future of discovery. Our unique AI-ready content model transforms your research from a simple document into a structured dataset. This means:

Enhanced Discoverability

Your work becomes more visible to the next generation of AI-powered research tools, ensuring it is found and cited for years to come.

Deeper Connections

Our framework allows future researchers to uncover non-obvious thematic connections between your work and others across the entire CENIE corpus.

Lasting Relevance

By making your research machine-readable, you ensure it will be part of the foundational data for the future of performing arts scholarship.

4. A Peer Review Process That Values Practice

Our commitment to rigor is absolute. But we believe rigor includes relevance. Our innovative peer review model combines:

Traditional Academic Review

By leading scholars in your field to ensure theoretical soundness.

Practitioner Review

By working artists, directors, and educators who can assess the practical, on-the-ground applicability of your work.

This dual approach ensures your research is not only intellectually robust but also genuinely useful to the community it's meant to serve.

Are You Ready to Amplify Your Impact?

We are actively seeking original, high-quality manuscripts from established scholars, emerging researchers, and practitioner-scholars whose work pushes the boundaries of our field. We are particularly interested in research that is interdisciplinary, technologically innovative, and has clear implications for the practice or pedagogy of the performing arts.
