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

One day in the terrible twentieth century, the young Donald Servotte realises that his true calling is not to be found in school. In a revelation he envisions his future: he sneaks out of the classroom and begins his quest for a princess to get married to. A compromising photo in the pocket of one of his classmates provides him with starting capital. But goddess Fortuna doesn't seem to be too fond of Donald. Time and again the blows of fate descend on him. Donald's odyssey into husbandry is as scabious and bizarre as the jokes so eagerly told in this novel.
