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.

“Where does nature stop and whatever is ‘not-nature’ begin?” asks Jimmie Durham in his text Nature in the City. The elements displayed here on the wall - a piece of wood, the leg of a table, a carved wood ornament and two nuts - represent different parts, forms and functions of the same tree. Black Walnut emphasizes the remaining primary identity of the material through the manufacturing process.
