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.

Untitled (DM42) Sekula says about this "we have this framing object that was on the table in Antwerp, the ship model that your team made to my rough specifications, which was combined with the fan and the flags of the primary nine or ten flags of convenience, that for me was important especially for the juxtaposition with the works from ‘Ship of Fools’, the works about this campaign against the flag of convenience, but I still feel that that is a key element of the museum, it could be dissociated from those specific photographs. It’s like a preface."
