Dachverband Tanz Deutschland was involved in the implementation of a symposium held in Düsseldorf from September 13-15, 2013, and has since maintained a collaboration with the multimedia dance platform numeridanse.tv.
Numeridance.tv is managed and coordinated by the Maison de la Danse, in Lyon, and was created on the initiative of director Charles Picq, who worked closely with the French National Center for Dance (CDN) to develop the platform.
The digital platform provides free access to a diverse video database of productions, documentaries, interviews and other footage related to the theme of Tan. It is available in English and French.
