Cyberfeminism: Women and Cyberspace
Levdonskaya, Alisa ; Šedrlová, Magdalena (referee) ; Kotásek, Miroslav (advisor)
Cílem této bakalářské práce je seznámit čtenáře s myšlenkami kyberfeminismu. Následující kapitoly této práce popisují historii feminismu a zejména cyberfeminismu. Poskytuje čtenáři základní pochopení pojmů sex a genderu z feministického hlediska a představuje pojem tzv. „Kyberprostoru“ a význam tohoto pojmu v moderním světě, jakož i pojem „kyborgové“ a jak podle kyberfeministických teorií mohou ovlivnit genderovou nerovnost. Tato práce také popisuje, jak nové technologie ovlivňovaly ženy a způsobovaly vznik kyberfeminismu, vysvětluje čtenáři Donna Harawayovou myšlenku cyborgské entity a studuje, jak internet svou anonymitou zpochybňuje stávající genderové normy. Poslední kapitola této práce je zaměřena na praktický projev cyberfeminismu.

The Symbolism of Colors as a Speculative-Fiction
Špundová, Veronika ; Bena, Julie (referee) ; Šrámek, Jan (advisor)
The bachelor's thesis is an existential dystopian statement of a human actor. It is an object into which the author - the creator - user - actor projects her critical vision of a globalized, yet very local world torn apart by several crises at the same time, in which she longs to break free from anthropocentrism or redefine it to more respect a wide range of other actors, on which we are largely dependent. It tries to grasp reality from a new perspective, even if such a perspective should be mere imagination, speculative fiction, even if it should deviate from the usual directions of knowledge and action to the unknown, such as the magical irrationality. Formally, the subject of the bachelor's thesis is DIY tent sewn from upcycled textile materials and embroidered with ornaments, symbols and organic drawings, which form a variety of relationships and narratives. Inside this "outdoor shrine" there is an object - a totem standing on a tripod, on which rests a smartphone, which through the application plays three videos depicting the human actor in various strange surreal situations.

The analysis of movie characters of cyborg-woman from the perspective of the postmodern and post-theoretical approaches to the body and the identity constitution.
Bubeníčková, Kateřina ; Fišerová, Michaela (advisor) ; Kobová, Ĺubica (referee)
The thesis focuses on the analysis of the basic types of the film characters portraying artificial women: creatures who combine "femininity" (humanity) and technology, and who show female sexual characteristics or features that are stereotypically perceived as female-like (e.g. female cyborgs, female androids, female robots). The characters are analyzed and approached from the perspective of postmodern philosophy and post-theory studies; the forming of their body and identity is analyzed on the account of the narrative. The aim of the thesis is to explore whether the film representations of female cyborgs are similar to real cyborgs in the sense that they bring liberalization from the point if view of posthumanism and cyberfeminism, or whether they can only be perceived as the prime form of the Foucaltian body-as-machine, i.e. perfectly controllable precise technicist bodies which are created by the current power dispositions. The characters are divided into four categories, based on their predominant physical and "social" functions: a sexbot, a domesticated artificial woman, a destructive artificial woman and an emotional/intelligent artificial woman. The following identification and interpretation of the body, identity, relationships and the narrative structures are based on the theoretical...

The perfect woman. The analysis of movie characters of artificial female beings from the perspective of the postmodern theories and its approaches to the body and the identity constitution.
Bubeníčková, Kateřina ; Vochocová, Lenka (advisor) ; Kobová, Ĺubica (referee)
This thesis will be focused on the analysis of the basic types of the female artificial movie characters - the beings connecting "femininity" (humanity) and technology. These characters holds the external female sexual signs or the characteristics stereotypically perceived as female (e.g. cyborg/cyborg woman, android woman, robotess). My issue will be examinated from the perspective of postmodern approach to the process of shaping their bodies and identities in relation to the narrative movie structure. The characters will be divided into categories based on their dominating physical and "social" function in the story. The subsequent identification and interpretation of physicality, identity and relations with other characters of the narrative will be based not only on principles of semiotic analysis, but will take into account especially the approach of postmodernism. The main theoretical basis for this paper will be the theory of poststructuralism and so called post theories - a theory of posthumanism, transhumanism and cyberfeminism.

Cyborg as a Representation of the Relationship Between Man and Technology in Visual Culture
Petričák, Filip ; Charvát, Martin (advisor) ; Řehořová, Irena (referee)
This master thesis deals with the topic of the relationship between man and technology, which is represented by cyborg characters in visual culture. The aim is to create a stereotype of individual cyborg characters from selected cyber-punk works, on the basis of which I can reflect the vision and ideas of the relationship between the organic and technical in the future world. This work is divided into four chapters - the first chapter focuses on cyber-punk as a sub-genre of sci-fi, in the second I define the cyborg character and the postmodern theoretical background, which are related to the cyborg, in the third chapter I present the theoretical basis for the analysis of characters and specify methodological procedures, in the final chapter I analyze the individual works.
