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.

Oxford Community Data Stream (2013), a multichannel installation that embodies Willats’s commitment to art as a transformative practice, was commissioned by Modern Art Oxford. The project provided the framework for a collaborative process aimed at creating a different kind of ‘new reality’. Here, there is no longer the authoritative determinism of the post-War ‘mixed economy’; instead, an act of interactive speculative modelling performed by people from two very different communities in the Oxford area.
