Our streaming and knowledge platform tanz:digital will be working more closely with the French video platform Numéridanse in future.
Numéridanse is the first video platform dedicated exclusively to dance. It is free and open to all, offering a unique collection of videos including filmed performances, documentaries, interviews, short films and feature films. All dance genres, styles and forms are represented, offering a comprehensive overview of the richness and diversity of the choreographic heritage.
Its mission: to make an invaluable choreographic heritage accessible to as many people as possible. Our goal: to be an indispensable tool for the world of dance – for artists, audiences, cultural professionals and educators.
Through Numéridanse, dance is shared, passed on and experienced at the intersection of the arts and eras.
Numéridanse is free of charge and freely accessible without geographical restrictions. All content available on the platform can only be streamed online and cannot be downloaded. Artists, companies, theatres, festivals, institutions, producers and cultural organisations enrich the video archive by making their works accessible. All uploaded content remains the property of the authors or the institution that owns the rights to it. The platform serves as a space for the presentation and dissemination of these works.
Since its creation in 2011, the platform has been managed and operated by the Maison de la Danse in Lyon. Numéridanse is also developed in collaboration with the media library team at the Centre National de la Danse (CND) and supported by the French Ministry of Culture.
The aim of the funding programme of the same name tanz:digital was to strengthen dance artists, dance ensembles and dance institutions (venues, archives, dance schools, mediation projects, etc.) in the media presentation of artistic productions.
The aims of the programme were to develop innovative choreographic/artistic formats and to test new recording and production formats - e.g. working with bodycams, 3D and 360° recording techniques, VR and AR applications, streaming and video-on-demand productions, format development for social networks and gaming.
