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.

"I had hundred people lying down on the grass, and we shot it from up above, and we had twenty-five people in a line. I did it as a one-frame movie with black fade-in and fade-out. It was simply called 100 Minds, but I did it as a horizontal movie theater. I lined the people up in four rows on the floor with their eyes facing forward, and then I simply had one or two people in the audience say, “A hundred minds” as a title of the movie."
