The phenomenon of empty gallery
Brožka, Petr ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Chamonikolasová, Kaliopi (referee) ; Ryška, Pavel (referee) ; Kvíčala, Petr (advisor)
The doctoral thesis deals with the topic of exihibiting empty gallery space. The purpose is to clarify the specifics that accompany the exhibited empty gallery and to define the essence of more general patterns of exposition in the gallery space. Doctoral thesis also presents the special simple void that generates art itself. Finally, the text reopens a polemic within the institutional theory of art. Doctoral thesis criticizes the established terminology related with exposition of the empty gallery.

Instructions
Kopčil, Tomáš ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Ruller, Tomáš (advisor)
In my work I deal with how to do things. Instructional videos, printed paper instructions for using the product or performing an artistic event - all serve only as a platform for self-realization. The condition in the approach is not strictly following the established procedures. Rather, it is about reassessing what is essential at the moment.

BAROQUE FEELING OF LIFE
Ciprová, Barbora ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Smetana, Matěj (advisor)
I perceive the thesis as the outcome of longer-term considerations over the relationship between architecture and music, as well as the concepts of genius loci, memory of place, or site-specific art. Thanks to the closer encounter with the Broumov landscape and the churches designed by the architects Kryštof and Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer, located in it, these reflections were connected with the term Baroque. The work is an experiment exploring the diversity of contemporary musical approaches responding to unified task based on the principles of Baroque architecture.

High efficiency control circuits for LEDs
Havlík, Vojtěch ; Máca, Josef (referee) ; Vyroubal, Petr (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to design two different switching power supply circuits with integrated circuits suitable for controlling of LED. The theoretical part describes the principles of two main switching converters topologies – buck and boost. Furthermore, a universal H-bridge structure of switching supply is described. This is compared with the typical switching supply design. Based on specified requirements, two circuits are designed with selected IO which are suitable for using in the automotive industry. Their function and typical schema are described. In the practical part is realized design with both selected IC, choosing components and layout PCB. Set of tests are carried out with manufactured samples. Based on measured results are performed optimalization of samples, which are tested also. In the end of this thesis both samples are compared in terms of function, efficiency and EMC.

A Prayer for Something That is Departing
Belzová, Denisa ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Zálešák, Jan (referee) ; Rozbořil, Blahoslav (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
The aim of the dissertation is to interpret genius loci of the industrial and periphery landscape in painting and photography.

Performance Art as a Border Form of Artistic Expression
Vatulíková, Andrea ; Daněk, Josef (referee) ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Chamonikolasová, Kaliopi (advisor)
While taking into account the field of study of performing arts, I assume that the category called „performing arts“ underwent many reforms in the 20th century, making it almost impossible to set clear boundaries between theatre, dance and performance art. Therefore I deal with their common ground that I call the zero point and that allows me to explore means of expression of human body and also time – space dimension of live action. The zero point is located in the pelvic region of the body and it is the center of stability, balance and life enegry. In my dissertation I focus on the analysis of physical trainings that work with the zero point in theater, dance and performance arts. Primary output of this work is then analysis of physicality as culturally encoded construct and the practical part of disseration is focused on the realisation of the point zero symposium.

Archives and documentation of performance art: at the intersection between history and myth.
Písaříková, Jana ; Šedivá, Barbora (referee) ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Horáková, Jana (referee) ; Ruller, Tomáš (advisor)
The PhD thesis deals with the role of archives in the contemporary artistic and curatorial practice, with an emphasis on the performance art. It also analyses the creation process, methodology and the contents of selected personal and institutional archives in both Czech and international contexts. The objective of the paper is to answer the following questions: In what way is the documentation and subsequent archiving of process-oriented forms of art performed? How is the history of the contemporary art formed and interpreted through these archives and with the help of the artistic and curatorial practice? To what extent are we able to reconstruct the history from records and performance documents that are only fragmented, thus making a reference to a real action? Do the archives leave some room for misinterpretation, creating a myth or personality cult through its system of classification of knowledge? How indeed is the performance art related to its own history; how is this history perceived by the performer alone; and how is it approached by the professional audience? The paper will also include the analysis of current state and possible solutions to the operation of the archive of the Faculty of Fine Arts, which is related to opening a dialogue among artists, theorists and institutions that might be interested in better accessibility of such an archive.

Affective turn of political communication on social media
Zápotocký, Jan ; Reifová, Irena (advisor) ; Havlík, Vlastimil (referee) ; Charvát, Jan (referee)
1 This dissertation examines the transformations of political communication through the lens of the affective turn explaining the interrelationships between the energy of the political leader, the subsequent intersubjective process of emotional energy production among his supporters, ritual and parasocial relations, and the establishing of political fandom. The thesis explores individual phenomena through virtual ethnography, taking the paralinguistic and phatic aspects of communication as the defining features of affective expressions. The analytical part of the thesis explores the Přísaha movement, its leader Robert Šlachta and the movement's Facebook community as representative of this broader phenomenon. In particular, the dissertation highlights the uniqueness of the resulting synergy creating political fandom and the fact that despite strategically managed and inauthentic communication, the resulting emotions of the supporters are authentic, and they experience intense feelings of hope, courage, love or care. The energy of the leader himself is the primary stimulus that draws followers into the movement, and encourages their activity. The emotional energy experienced, which in this case is the unifying substance and the cause of the emergence of interaction rituals in the structure of online social...

Everything I ever wanted to write but was afraid to draw
Polák, Tadeáš ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Vlková, Veronika (advisor)
The bachelor's thesis takes the form of an author's book called Pesůňova cesta and is a colourfully illustrated story of a five-day journey of a fictional animal, half dog and half horse - pesůň. In the twenty-seven short chapters of the book he discovers the world and himself. The book oscillates between genres and collage-like changes of form, and it is impossible to say clearly what age group of readers it is aimed at, in the words of the writer Kurt Vonnegut, so perhaps "anyone who might be interested". The work is the result of the author's long-standing interest in the written word, drawing and illustration, and self-publishing books and zines.
