City and dance culturer: prague rave scene - a series of interviews
Patočková, Tereza ; Hroch, Miloš (advisor) ; Lovaš, Karol (referee)
Practical bachelor thesis - City and dance culture: Prague rave scene - a series of journalistic interviews, documents the relationship between the segment of Prague dance culture - rave scene and the city, as a physical space that provides a refuge. The work seeks ways to ensure the sustainability of an important part of the scene - rave open air events, so-called warehouse parties. It is these events that are the most vulnerable part of the dance culture, as they depend on open urban locations, which are declining due to advancing gentrification. However, warehouse events are also threatened by the stance of city authorities, which in many cases decide whether or not to lend urban space to these events. The intention of this work is fulfilled by documenting the statements of the respondents, who were selected for the series on the basis of their relationship to the topic. The interviews mediate different perspectives on the topic of urban space and dance culture, which in turn provide a comprehensive picture of the possibilities that could lead to greater sustainability and stability of the scene in all its complexity. The theoretical part of the work approaches the historical context of rave culture and at the same time places it in the current framework of society and city life.

A view of the current techno scene through photojournalism
Fialová, Karolína ; Turek, Pavel (advisor) ; Láb, Filip (referee)
The practical part of this dissertation presents the current techno scene in Prague, Czech Republic. Techno as a relatively new genre of electronic dance music has gone through a wave of popularity in Prague over the past few years, but without the influence of established promoters. The photobook covers events organised by three collectives of young people, with a more extensive focus on one of them. They capture the euphoria of the night and subsequent morning fatigue as well as behind the scenes shots. The enclosed photo book shows photographs mainly from parties organised by Cukr. This collective of three young people has been active on Prague's scene for the past few years and its founders regularly run techno events. They change the location for each party, but organising events in places such as churches, theaters, abandoned banks or warehouses carries a risk - and sometimes things don't go according to plan. The theoretical part focuses on the history of techno, its cultural and musical context and the characteristics of nightlife photography through presenting the views of photographers such as Wolfgang Tillmans or Dave Swindells. I also compare Prague's techno with the situation in Berlin or London. I explain that the scene in Prague, as it is now, is fragile - and can disappear along...
