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

La Princesse Angine is a fantasy novel, a fairy tale with a good share of absurdity. Angine (angina in French) is a little girl, a princess who flees her kingdom as it falls in the hands of her enemies, seeking refuge with her uncle. She hits the road on a truck-elephant, accompanied by the Duke of Vitamins, her very loyal and alcoholic Chancellor, and a little poet. Together they go through very Catholic towns such as Lourdes, Lisieux and Rome. The trip is filled with preposterous encounters and magical letters.
