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.

This fluxus related - video gives an image of a hole that is dug in the ground. By this action Jacques Charlier (defender of the ‘Belgitude’) articulates a comment on art to find the dream, an attitude of art. He is irreverent but radical related to the tradition of art and beliefs that everything is art and uses often unimportant forms of the art – system like parody and persiflage, a valorization of the art-world as in technical services, even the ground work of laying pipes and drainages referred to this.
