This article returns to the centrality of craft-making as a push to consider ontological antidualisms and further
considerations for materials, humans, nonhuman, and more-than-human bodies. The research seeks answers to the
question: (where) is theory enacted when human actors craft? Part of the answer to this question resides, as exemplified
in this paper, in recent methodological innovations that emphasise affective snapshots of mattering through cartography.
Building on a one-year study with seasoned teachers taking a graduate studies course on maker literacies in Halifax,
Nova Scotia, the author presents alternative methodologies for inquiry in maker research, speaking to relational
mattering. Insights into antidualisms, and breaking with binary thinking, are explored throughout this inquiry.
