Multi-Dimensional Language Models and Their Applications in Visual Arts
Dohnal, Marek ; Tomko, Martin (referee) ; Meduna, Alexandr (advisor)
This thesis is concerned with application of formal models, namely four-way and cellular automata, in the field of visual arts. New models were designed in order to recognize, modify, and transform an input grid comprised of tiles. These models are implemented in an application accepting an input grid, which is colourized and transformed in the serial art style of Victor Vasarely. The result of this work is a synthesis of an input grid and a colour reference into a video visualisation of the transformations carried out by the newly designed cellular automaton.

Addictive substances and Visual Art
Bobková, Simona ; Fišerová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Raudenský, Martin (referee)
This diploma thesis discusses the topic of addictive substances and their influence on artistic creation. In the theoretical part, I first focus on the search for their connection in history on various artifacts that could be found. Among the most common are cave paintings, which I also list in my thesis, as well as sculptures and illustrations. Subsequently, I define the distribution of the types of individual addictive substances that are most often associated with visual artists, and which I describe later. These include alcohol, cannabis drugs, stimulants, psychotropic substances, and opiates. Furthermore, I characterize visual artists who were influenced by addictive substances in their work at that time. I present exhibitions that have a certain connection with this topic, and in the last line of my work, I focus on the preventive component of the relationship between school and family. In the didactic part, together with the pupils of the eight-year high school, we deal with the issue of these substances and realize an art series with the name that this diploma thesis also bears, i.e. "Addictive Substances and Visual Arts." The thematic series contains five creative tasks that aim at a primarily preventive goal. The research part, the method of which is semi-structured qualitative research,...

The Relationship between God's Revelation and the Human Experience of Beauty as a Challenge to Religious Education
BLAŽEK IŇOVÁ, Veronika
This dissertation deals with a theological reflection on the relationship between the supernatural sphere of God's revelation and the natural realm of its human finding in the beauty of the created world and in the visual arts. We thus approach the question of the relationship between the sacred and beautiful theoretically from several theological and aesthetic perspectives so that we can subsequently apply these findings to contemporary practice in the field of religious education. The main theoretical background that inspired our work is theological aesthetics, especially the work of one of its main representatives, Hans Urs von Balthasar, who in his trilogy "Herrlichkeit: Eine theologische Ästhetik" presented a unique way of theological thinking about the relationship between beauty and other degrees (good and truth) of recognizing the sacred reality in the profane world. The aim of the qualitative research presented here was then to empirically find out whether one can really experience transcendence through beauty, and if so, how does one perceive this experience? The research was divided into two parts, which correspond to different target groups. In the first part, the research was conducted using the method of interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA) and the data obtained by in-depth interviews with five visual artists. The second part of the research examined the modalities of perception of the beautiful and sacred according to high school students, using the method of grounded theory (GTM) and analysis of photographic data. The didactic method presented here, which leads its listeners from the perception of created and artistic beauty through the goodness of interpersonal relationships to the realization of the meaning of life, which can culminate in accepting the ultimate knowledge of the Truth, which is Christ, was called "Astonish-Experience-Transform." This didactic "transcendental" model is an application of empirically obtained data and theoretical conclusions and can be applied in religious education, catechesis, and pastoral care as a dynamic element of human experience that can open the way for the seeking person towards God's Love.
