The paper discusses my experience as a teacher and dramaturg in an on-going
transdisciplinary project titled The Unmarked Measure, based at the University
of Regina. This project investigates the boundaries, both institutional
and perceptual, confronting the body across three disciplines. In this
regard, the paper explores the liminal meeting of the analytical tools
used for measuring the body in performance between biomechanics (Physical
Activities Studies), intermedia performance (Visual Arts), and dramaturgy
(Theatre). The examination reveals a potency and potential of transdisciplinary
boundaries, while exposing the ‘blind spots’ of each and thereby engendering
new, hybrid tools for analysis between these disciplines.
