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.

Collection: Published by KLF Communication .

1987 was the debut LP by the JAMs (Justified Ancients of Mu Mu), known later as the KLF. The album used many unauthorised samples, and they were ordered to destroy all copies and master-tapes following a compliant from ABBA because of samples from their song Dancing Queen. The JAMs travelled to Sweden in the hope of meeting ABBA to convince them to allow them to use the sample. After failing to meet them, most of the records were burned in a field in Gothenburg during the return journey. A handful of copies survived.
