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: Private collection.

Panamarenko harks back in this work to his pedal-powered flying machines with insect wings from the early 1970s. The four-winged aircraft is powered by a pilot who tensions a spring by pedalling. When the spring causes the wings to flap
open, they continue to vibrate afterwards at high speed. Panamarenko drew his preliminary design for Big Quadru Flip-Flop in 1990, but it was not finally constructed until 1998.
