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.

Nautical Foghorn (Manufactured Japan, Salvaged Alang, India) with Wooden Storage Box [title given by Allan Sekula], produced by Tokyo Siren Co., LTD, aluminum, 1981, 69 x 28 x 23 cm. Purchased by Allan Sekula, inside of its containing box, through eBay on 6 September 2010. [TDM 39 a-b]

Foghorn from a Japanese ship that can be heard for 1.5 miles. Sold on E-Bay for $349 by someone in India, probably connected to a shipbreaker. Described by Sekula as a 'Tatlin-esque loudspeaker constructivist "box with the sound of its own making."' and as 'of course it is a perfect object to be displayed inside the museum'.
