We have a monthly online Tomkins reading group for our members.

Readings include not only the work of Tomkins (specifically, we are reading through the volumes of his

magnus opus Affect, Imagery, Consciousness) but of other researchers related to Affect Script theory. These

are relatively casual Zoom interactions, but participants are expected to have, at minimum, a mid-level

knowledge of Tomkins’ basic ideas, particularly affect theory and the innate activator model. Sessions are

held the last Monday of each month at 7:30 pm and typically last 90 minutes.

Please see the schedule of readings below. Sometimes these are available for download, while the books

included may occasionally have to be purchased or borrowed by participants.

Should members be interested in participating, please signal your interest by contacting Phil Rose at
