Interviews with Graphic Designers
Šafářová, Gabriela ; Přidalová, Kateřina (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
My diploma thesis consist in creating short videos. I have been interviewing important Czech graphic designers of an older generatin and I've been interested in socio-historical background which a profession of graphic design had before Velvet revolution and before new media coming. The project got a name Graphic Design Talks. The videos are put on Facebook with other information about each designer. I would like to continue interviewing new deigners add new videos even after I finish my study.

What was/is the meaning of independent publications in countries with a totalitarian regimes?
Demovičová, Barbora ; Čumlivski,, Jan (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
Is it important that a graphic designer/art student expresses their opinion on the society and world around them through their work? How can a graphic designer influence social situation, the community in which they live, or other events? What is the role of civic protest and activism? What is the relationship between art and politics? What is the political power of the art? Researching the role of political art, independent publishing, civic actions and comparing the public protests in the past with protests today lead to creating a self-published independent publication reflecting current issues in Slovakia. Focus on Slovak society came after the murder of investigative journalist Ján Kuciak and his fiancée Martina Kušnírová resulting in a wave of public protests and formation of new government of Slovak Republic. This publication is mix of hope for change, idealism, and later scepticism and frustration. This publication is comprised of author’s personal texts and interviews with different persons working in various fields, for example with investigative journalist Marek Vagovič, sociologist and one of the leaders of Velvet Revolution Fedor Gál, publisher and owner of samizdat library Libri Prohibiti Jiří Gruntorád, or Slovak artists Peter Kalmus and Miroslav Cipár.

Lifetime measurement of current carriers in silicon solar cells structures
Macháček, Martin ; Hégr, Ondřej (referee) ; Boušek, Jaroslav (advisor)
This thesis deals with a lifetime measurement of current carriers in silicon solar cell structures. In the first chapter there is a description of several recombination models and their participation at a final effective lifetime value. By using these recombination models in a computer simulation it is possible to receive approximate evaluation of some important silicon solar cell structure parameters. The PC1D simulation program was used for this thesis. For the lifetime measurement of real test-wafers two methods were used: QSSPC (quasi-steady-state photoconductance) and MW-PCD (microwave photoconductance decay). There is a detail description of these methods, used measurements machines and differences between both of them in the chapter four. The main objective of the thesis is mentioned in the last chapter, which is mainly focused on a chemical passivation of silicon wafers and deals with a problem of post-passivation wafer cleaning. There are three passivation techniques mentioned: the iodine in ethanol solution, the iodine and polymer in ethanol solution and the quinhydron in methanol solution. In two cases a results, that are adequate to return the tested wafers in the manufacture process, were achieved.

The Lucy Collective - Women Of History, Women Of Fiction
Franková, Anna ; Herout,, Adam (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
This project is a prototype of a database-driven website with user-editable content The Lucy Collective – Women Of History. This site will collect information about historical women and links to sources related to them, and serve as a "first-step" resource for educators, creators, and other people interested in the topic. The prototype's main goal is to present the intended structure, useability, and design of the final website, and serve as a basis for building the final working version.

Low Budget Publications
Bařina, Karel ; Hanzalová, Markéta (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
Artist’s book named „For example like this“ should be a guide for design beginners as well as for advanced graphic designers. The book is adressing problems and ambiguities around designing a publication which designers often have to deal with and which shouldn’t be forgotten. It is also a guide in the case that a designer chooses to craft a book on his/her own.

The Magazine
Drinková, Kristína ; Macháček, Adam (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
By this bachelor work I try to design a visual line of the independent online FAVU "magazine", which is to communicate information about events in studios, exhibitions, about students and lectures in a consistent form.

To the morning dawn I tread softly
Košťáková, Judita ; Solčáni, Ján (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
Morning dawn is a specific, time-limited part of the day. It's something on the edge – the tension between the end and the beginning, darkness and light, silence and noise. Time seems to have stopped, and at the same time it still flows towards everyday life. Autor enters the morning dawn softly, she turns on the microphone and conveys her authentic experience in the form of livestreams. The visual and sound recordings, together with the personal commentary, move on this edge, are in harmony and contradiction, and thus encourage the livestream viewer-listener to perceive listening as a new dimension of the perception of space.
