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.

The project The AUDMCRS Underground Dance Music Collection of Recorded Sound, 2011–2012, is an archive of 839 12” trance records acquired from the DJ Joshua Ryan. When exhibited, people are free to listen to the records and to look at the database providing information on each of them. All records are catalogued in the MARC standard as specified by the United States Library of Congress. A Library of Congress study also states that a vinyl record will last for approximately 100 years, meaning this ‘old’ format will probably last longer than those that succeeded it, such as CDs, digital files and hard drives. The work considers the personal obsessions for collecting items, particularly those that have a value within niche communities, such as vinyl records in music subculture. Information on the entire archive for this project can also be seen at: http://audmcrs.coryarcangel.com.
