Imaginary Landscapes
Hudcová, Veronika ; Bárta, Tomáš (referee) ; Kvíčala, Petr (advisor)
In the paintings of my bachelor work I'm inspired by the visuality of my dreams and the atmosphere of them. I was painting my imaginations of the imaginary worlds and landscapes. That naturaly pushed me in the sci fi theme. I used some cosmic objects and machinery I created by myself just for this case. This machinery or organisms are occupy the landscapes. I was not painting just my ideas but I was trying my paintings to give rise to imagination of the viewer. I should refer to inspiration by surrealism, especialy by the work of Josef Šíma and Toyes. Some connection is also with the Miroslaf Štolfa´s work.

the Screeners
Pětiletá, Petra ; Daniel, Ladislav (advisor) ; Valachová, Daniela (referee) ; Malečková, Dita (referee)
8 digitální fyzický Abstract: The thesis offers a phenomenological view of the contemporary hybrid world, consisting of interpenetrating two inseparable spheres: the physical (originally material) world and the digital (virtual world). My work shows how we can think about the world by separating the physical and the digital. In my research, I involved students in the eighth year of high school, aged 12-14, who are referred to as Generation Z or "digital natives". I was interested in how students described these two worlds and how they related to them and their intersection. I first explored the phenomenon of the digital world as part of my own artistic research, looking for themes and aspects to highlight. As part of my early research, I subjected the artistic mind maps to qualitative analysis, but the maps did not lead me to a deeper understanding of the digital-virtual world in the way I would expected. What did emerge, however, was the shape of the students' instru- mental relationship to the digital world through physical space and their own physical bodies. I was also interested in how students used the Internet and social networks, so I wanted to have different view on something that I don't usually learn in the classroom as a teacher. In the main research probe, we explored with the students the...

The problem of language in Husserl and its reception
Gvenetadze, Zura ; Schnell, Alexander (advisor) ; Flock, Philip (referee)
The aim of the following paper is to show what problems Husserl's phenomenology poses in relation to language. At first sight, the problem of language seems irrelevant or uninteresting in Husserl's work, since the author himself never really problematized language. However, I insist that without a proper analysis of language, some key questions remain unanswered, including 1) epistemological questions such as how we can grasp something in language, 2) the nature of phenomenology itself. When natural attitudes are transformed into phenomenological ones, the question is whether or how language is transformed, and 3) the constitution of other phenomena - like ideality, history, etc. Because of the vastness of the subject, I have chosen to focus mainly on three points - 1) the influence of language on perception, 2) the nature of language itself, and 3) the ability of language to penetrate the deepest depths of subjectivity. These topics will not all be discussed in detail because it would require much more work. For this reason, I have chosen to understand Husserl's phenomenology through the background of the problem of language. This means that the whole explanation and analysis can only be understood in this context. With this approach, I was able to see new perspectives and shed new light on the...

Brain Activity Evaluation Using sLORETA Imaging During Imagination and Induction of Flow State.
Remešová, Alžběta ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Name: Brain Activity Evaluation Using sLORETA Imaging During Imagination and Induction of Flow State The aim of the study: The aim of this work was to use sLORETA imaging to capture changes in the source brain activity before and after a 3-week movement imagination training. With the help of subjective questionnaires, the second goal was to capture and compare the potential progress of the flow state also within the imagination training. Methods: 13 healthy probands in the age range of 20-30 years participated in the study. Brain source activity was measured using a surface telemetric 32-channel EEG device Nicolet TM EEG Wireless Amplifier 32/64 from Natus Neurology. The subjects underwent EEG measurements twice, always before the start of the imagination training and after its end. Measurements were performed identically in the following order: 1) resting EEG: 5 min eyes closed, 5 min eyes open; 2) watching video in VR: 3 min + 5 min pause; 3) imagination of movement: 3 min. The initial measurement was followed by a 3-week home movement imagination training with detailed instructions using VR glasses. The subjects were told to watch the video and then train their own imagination 9 times in total. After the initial and control measurements, the probands were asked to fill out the Flow State Scale...

Imagination and Poetics: Means of Expression of British Progressive Rock in 1967-1977
BENEŠ, Jan
The topic of the thesis is the interpretation of some key means of expression of British progressive rock music, from its heyday at the turn of the sixties and seventies through the period of search and experimentation in the mid-seventies to the onset of punk and the change in the arrangement of the aesthetic standards of rock and the breadth of popular music in general. The work primarily deals with the ways in which the British progressive rock scene communicated with the public, i.e. the analysis of content components such as the themes of the compositions and the related graphic and visual presentation of the key musical works of the time. The work tries to trace and describe the connections between the individual expressive means of progressive rock in the British music scene, i.e. literary, musical and visual means, including innovative ways of communicating with the audience in the form of concerts and theatrical elements of the presentation.

How secondary school pupils solve metric problems in 3D geometry
Jankovcová, Anna ; Vondrová, Naďa (advisor) ; Janda, David (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to gain a deeper understanding of how high school students solve tasks in three-dimensional metric space. All of the selected tasks are solvable using similarity. Since this is not the only way to solve these problems, I also observe the procedures and strategies that students employ whilst solving them. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. In the theoretical part I define the basic terms and deal with difficulties which might occur while solving the selected problems. I also describe the expected outcomes of stereometry teaching in curricular documents. In the practical part, I firstly analyse the way certain metric problems are solved in high school textbooks. Then I describe how I did my research, in which 12 students participated. As my method for conducting the research I chose to interview the students about their solutions to the selected tasks in order to obtain enough information about the challenges that the students have in solving these problems and to observe the strategies they use. In the closing section of this thesis, I summarize the procedures which high school students use to solve metric problems, as well as the difficulties that some students had. My research has shown that students use various techniques to solve metric...
