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.

Sleeper, 1973

Film

The Pepto Bismo by Panamarenko is also called differently. Panamarenko also uses the term 'Japanese Pack'. He refers here to the powerful and nickel cadmium batteries that are made ​​in Japan.

'I had heard this expression in Woody Allen's film 'Sleeper'.  At a certain moment, he gets angry and yells: 'Oh! Those cheap Japanese packs!'  And because the Pepto Bismo had a box at the back full of Japanese batteries, I called it a Japanese Pack.  Back then, they were the best batteries you could find anywhere...' - Panamarenko
