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.

Literary synopsis

Las Correspondencias (The Correspondence) is an epistolary novel about friendship and money. Characters live and relate to each other in the city of Venice, in the present, but they seem to have lived already in other great books from the past. Las Correspondencias comes from a sentence by poet Ezra Pound: all letters speak about love and money. It creates a fiction based on names of different real citizens of Venice, anonymous and involuntary participants in these letters which, collected, form a  „plot“ of sorts. Las Correspondencias can also be read as a route through the floating city, birth site of financial capitalism.
