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.

Crazy for Life, 1990

Video

Video documentation of the performance Crazy for Life at the Bessie Schonberg Theater on June 10th 1990.

Jimmie Durham sits on stage and reads from a book, saying and singing things in many languages, including racist songs about indians. Crazy for Life is – says Durham during his performance – the title of the biography of Crazy Horse, a war chief of the Sioux Indian tribe in the United States.
