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.

Everything is Wrong, 1996, is a large wall painting that takes its name from Moby’s last album as a Techno artist before he turned more mainstream. The phrase itself is placed within a colourful circular target reminiscent of those by modernist painter Jasper Johns. Just like Moby’s two essays in the sleeve of this album, the phrase itself might be read as a reflection on the feeling at the time towards the erosion of the public sphere, as well as the effects of corporate globalisation on such things as the environment and the distribution of wealth.
