Demotikons
Ponomarevová, Denisa ; Sýkorová,, Lenka (referee) ; Mikyta, Svätopluk (advisor)
The bachelor thesis entitled Demotikons is a guide to the hypothetical and personal symbolism of digital space and internet communication. I refer to the well-known system of emoticons (emoji), reaction buttons, and simplified forms or signs found on web browsers, social networks, and the digital interfaces of our electronic devices. I deconstruct their meaning with my own attributes and place them in new forms and relationships. The drawings make micro-references to established "visual codes" in digital space, from email address signs to graphic icons and visual indicators in user interfaces. The output of this project becomes an installation comprising a series of drawings and objects that convey personal interpretations of the intersection of the digital (online) world with the physical (offline) world.

Nechvátalová, Lenka ; Klabíková Rábová, Tereza (advisor) ; Podzimek, Jan (referee)
In the current digital era, emoji are an integral part of everyday online communication, expressing a range of emotions and thoughts. This paper focuses on the understanding and use of emoji by different generations, with an emphasis on Generations Z, Y, X and Baby Boomers. Emoji offer a wide range of expressions and symbols, but their interpretation can differ between generations, which can lead to misunderstandings. This thesis explores the basic emoji that may be more likely to cause these misunderstandings. The aim is to identify the meanings of emoji in different generations and the influence of age and the digital environment on interpretation. The research will focus on the use and interpretation of emoji across generations. The aim is to improve understanding in online communication across generations, where emoji play a key role in communicating emotions and moods.

Davidová, Jitka ; Vondra, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Horný, Stanislav (referee)
Bachelor thesis "Usage of emoticons and emojis in the Internet practice" aims to clarify a boom which is currently happening around these nonverbal means of electronic communication. This study tries to reveal the causes of this modern trend and to specify the possibilities of its usage from the media point of view. Emoticon is not introduced just as a sign, but also as a functional mean of intermediality. The subject of study is firstly set into a broader theoretical framework, where a reader learns about the basic terms and approaches of nonverbal communication. Afterwards, the historical development of Unicode is described, which strongly changed the emoticon itself. In a practical part gained knowledge is exercised in interpretation research. Survey is described in more detail and complemented by the current opinions of the experts, who demonstrate its intermediality. The character is introduced generally according to forms of its usage and specifically in the context of social media as mean of communication. The main contribution of this work is clarification of historical development of current emoticons and highlighting their huge range of interpretation possibilities.
