Eye tracking helps architectural animation: Case study of the cathedral in Pécs
Xu, Yujie ; Katona, Vilmos
The Zsolnay Light Festival in Pécs is the only light festival in Hungary. The light show on the cathedral’s façade was a significant part of the 2010 European Capital of Culture programme. This paper investigates the impact of this dynamic art on the audience’s sensory experience using biometric technology. We evaluate six patterns projected onto buildings, which were distinguished parts of the animated light shows. For the attraction analysis of the animations’ key visual pattern frames, we use 3M’s VAS eye tracking simulation software. Furthermore, in parallel with Nikos Salingaros’ engagement-theory on architectural facades, we explore how visual stimulation changes when projecting artificial light works on them. By establishing comparative groups of visual contrasts (i.e., figurative, space simulating, dynamic, or abstract), we obtain various levels of engagement.

Fulfilment of the public interest in monument preservation in the Czech republic
Krejzek, Igor ; Frič, Pavol (advisor) ; Jelínková, Marie (referee)
My thesis is concerned with current problems involving fulfilment of the public interest in monument preservation in the Czech Republic. Firstly, the term "public interest" and its conceptual relationship in terms of the monument preservation is explored in the theoretical part of the thesis. Secondly, the current systems of monument preservation in the Czech Republic including the genesis of decision-making processes of municipal authorities under the current law are briefly described. This is followed by an explanation of the connection between the generally proclaimed, yet critically unexplored postulate of "two-track monument preservation". Despite clearly defined policies and competencies, the existing monument preservation decision-making systems and processes seems to be characterized by considerable confusion, and thus seem to bring about some process-based ambiguities and conflicts. The thesis not only aims to identify and analyse these ambiguities and conflicts but also strives to provide a conclusion that proposes some meaningful solutions. The benefits of the thesis for the Public and Social Policy field purposes lies in the identification and uncovering yet unexplored contextual pertinence in decision making activities within qualification works in monument preservation, as well as...

Castellology as a historical-cultural inspiration source imn art education
Pospíšil, Aleš ; Šamšula, Pavel (advisor) ; Bláha, Jaroslav (referee)
The dissertation thesis "Castellology as a historical-cultural inspiration source in art education", is dedicated to the historical discipline castellology and its developing aspects shared with art education and general education. One of the main parts of the thesis is the finding of historical connections between ancient disciplines and their intentional and functional influences in a social sense. In terms of historiography there are also some articles devoted to selected authors, whose influence was fundamental to both disciplines. The thesis surveys not only a historical point of view, but also the contemporary situation. The empirical part of the thesis is based on the theoretical part. From the information gained in terms of historiography, it was necessary to include research on a teacher's personality. The empirical research surveys the frequency and usage of themes and subjects connected with castellology in the lessons of art education by pedagogues at secondary school level in the context of their personal interest. The investigative and the theoretical parts are dedicated specifically to the Czech environment. In both cases foreign settings are only briefly covered.
