M HKA gaat digitaal

Met M HKA Ensembles zetten we onze eerste échte stappen in het digitale landschap. Ons doel is met behulp van nieuwe media de kunstwerken nog beter te kaderen dan we tot nu toe hebben kunnen doen.

We geven momenteel prioriteit aan smartphones en tablets, m.a.w. de in-museum-ervaring. Maar we zijn evenzeer hard aan het werk aan een veelzijdige desktop-versie. Tot het zover is vind je hier deze tussenversie.

M HKA goes digital

Embracing the possibilities of new media, M HKA is making a particular effort to share its knowledge and give art the framework it deserves.

We are currently focusing on the experience in the museum with this application for smartphones and tablets. In the future this will also lead to a versatile desktop version, which is now still in its construction phase.

In preparation for the video-performance Tocetea, Jimmie Durham had placed wooden boards on the walls of the gallery (see photos), hoping that paint would splash all over the place when the stone eventually fell in the bucket, creating various colour impressions on the boards. But that was not the case - the boards remained intact. Durham then peeled the acrylic paint from the floor and glued them on the wooden boards, almost spontaneously.
