Dimensions of a future dance archive

This text is based on a lecture given at the Positions: Dance #4. Creating Access – Diversity symposium, organised by Dachverband Tanz Deutschland, October 21 - 23 at the PACT Zollverein centre for the performing arts in Essen. The aim of the conference was to prompt a critical discourse on the definition of dance, the interpretation of dance history and the reflection in dance research as well as the perception of the dancing body and the dancer’s movement from an intersectional perspective.
