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: Stad Antwerpen, in langdurige bruikleen in M HKA (Inv. no. SCA0008).

From Bow to Ear is an installation with ceramic instruments, presented between five arches that mark out the space. The instruments are amplified by contact microphones, which Garnica uses to bring the instruments to life by touching them or blowing into them. The sounds overlap and take on a life of their own. What was once a static sculpture becomes a dynamic sound experience that occupies the entire space.
