When does collaborative work become transdisciplinary? What arises in the effort of translation? And where and how does the unbordering of disciplinary expertise contribute to transformation? (Here we assert our human intention and note with interest but resist unburdening, autocorrected by Word.) In this issue we take it as axiomatic that approaches which integrate diverse ways of knowing and doing are inherently valuable. This edition of Axon is less interested in evaluating the outcomes of interdisciplinary collaborative work, attending instead to the crossings of disciplinary boundaries as unfixed processes of movement and relations. Thus, we focus on the how (process, practice, doing), the what (people, materials, practice) and the where (place, practice, relations) as the groundwork required for doing collaborative practice.
