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.

"I'm not a photographer taking pictures with expression – in an expressionistic sense. On the one hand it was about the structures that I saw and that I then drew or composed. These structures I wanted to show through photography or to check them out against reality through photography. I used the camera rather as a kind of laboratory.

On the other hand, [it was] about creating signs, and to check out those signs against reality through photography. Showing (a picture of) those signs. To record that, you take a photograph of that thing."
