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.

Signals, symbols, codes and pictures on television, newspapers, mobile phones, internet and even in the street, this is our life in the new era. This mix is part of our unreal communication system nowdays. Under a cover in red and white letters, "Muntadas: m/m" alerts about the perception like a double-edged sword. This publication is made by cuts that Muntadas collected in the media world , sometimes images, sometimes text, sometimes computer codes, building an incoherent structure of elements removed from their original context. He picks up parts of photos or parts of sentences leaving them without message, denying their informative and communicative task.
