Predstava je nastala pod mentorstvom doc. art. Nenada Pavlovića i asistenta Marijana Josipovića. S obzirom na to da je u pitanju autorska predstava, u ovom sam radu nastojao obrazložiti izbor teme, samu ideju za predstavu kao i izbor scenskih izražajnih sredstava prilikom njenoga kreiranja. Povrh toga htio sam pokazati na koji smo način postdramske izvedbene forme iskoristili unutar određene dramaturške strukture proistekle iz likova. Rad se referira na literaturu navedenu na njegovom kraju.The play "The End of an Idyll" is the author project of the students Bojan Dronjak and Anabela Sulić, second year of the graduate study of Theater Arts, non-verbal theater.

The support
Završni rad ,,Oslonac“ umjetnički je prikaz kroz medij skulpture izrađen u drvetu. Odabrana su dva komada drveta koja su oblikovana u jednostavne forme. Predstavljaju dvije forme koje se međusobno dodiruju. Ideja je rada prikazati međusobno povjerenje. Kako se jedna forma naslanja na drugu, jasno je vidljiv motiv oslonca. Povjerenje je osjećaj koji se pojavljuje u svakom čovjeku i neizostavno je tijekom čovjekova života. Cilj je predstaviti emocionalni oslonac koji svatko postigne i ima tijekom življenja. Bez povjerenja čovjek živi u strahu te nema snagu kretati se kroz život.My undergraduate thesis, „The Support“, is an artistic representation through the medium of sculpture made in wood. Two pieces of wood are chosen and shaped into simpler forms. They represent two forms that touch each other. The idea of the work is to show mutual trust. As one form rests on another, the support motif is visible. Trust is a feeling that appears in every person and is indispensable during a persons life. The goal is to present the emotional support that each person achieves and has during their lifetime. Without trust, a person lives in fear and has no strength to move through life
Influence of mythology on video games
Mitologija i videoigre predstavljaju nevjerojatno intrigantan spoj koji se može promatrati iz različitih perspektiva. Videoigre su postale sveprisutne u suvremenom društvu, a mnoge od njih koriste mitološke elemente kako bi stvorile zanimljive svjetove i priče. Mitologija, s druge strane, ima duboke korijene u ljudskoj kulturi i predstavlja bogat izvor priča, simbola i likova. U ovom smo radu analizirali načine na koje videoigre koriste mitologiju kao izvor inspiracije za svoje priče, likove i svjetove. Primijetili smo da mnoge videoigre crpe elemente iz klasičnih mitologija, kao što su grčka, nordijska ili egipatska, kako bi obogatile svoje priče dubokim narativima. Također smo proučavali kako videoigre koriste mitološke likove, kao što su bogovi, heroji i čudovišta, kako bi stvorile izazovne protivnike ili saveznike za igrače. Primijetili smo da mitologija često igra važnu ulogu u oblikovanju moralnih dvojbi i tematskih elemenata u videoigrama. Pitanja moći, sudbine, slobode i ljudske prirode često su istraživana kroz likove i priču videoigara temeljenih na mitološkim motivima. Sveukupno, mitologija i videoigre zajedno stvaraju fascinantan svijet u kojem stvarnost i maštovitost međusobno surađuju. Kroz ovu dinamičnu interakciju igračima se pruža prilika da dublje promišljaju o mitovima i njihovoj relevantnosti u današnjem svijetu dok istovremeno uživaju u uzbudljivim avanturama koje im videoigre pružaju.Mythology and video games represent an incredibly intriguing blend that can be viewed from various perspectives. Video games have become ubiquitous in modern society, and many of them incorporate mythological elements to create captivating worlds and narratives. On the other hand, mythology has deep roots in human culture and serves as a rich source of stories, symbols, and characters. In this paper, we have analyzed the ways in which video games draw inspiration from mythology for their stories, characters, and settings. We have observed that many video games draw elements from classical mythologies such as Greek, Norse, or Egyptian to enrich their narratives with profound storytelling. We have also examined how video games utilize mythological characters, such as gods, heroes, and monsters, to create challenging foes or allies for players. Furthermore, we have noticed that mythology often plays a significant role in shaping moral dilemmas and thematic elements in video games. Questions of power, destiny, freedom, and human nature are frequently explored through the characters and narratives of video games based on mythological motifs. Overall, mythology and video games together create a fascinating world where reality and imagination collaborate. Through this dynamic interaction, players are provided with an opportunity to contemplate the depth of myths and their relevance in today's world while simultaneously enjoying thrilling adventures offered by video games
Artificial production, manipulation and modification of data and media through synthetic media
Ovaj završni rad sadrži teorijsko razmatranje medija digitalnog doba, umjetne inteligencije te sintetičkih medija i kako se oni dijele. Na primjeru viralni h videozapi sa , najpoznatij e virtualn e influenceri ce, Lil Miquel e, te PokemonGo !, igrice koja je kreirana pomoću tehnologije proširene stvarnosti, pokazuju se načini na koji takve vrste sintetičkih medija funkcioniraju, te problematiku njihova postojanja. Sintetički mediji probijaju se u svijet tehnologije brzinom svjetlosti, te isto tako brzo postaju zanimljiv predmet proučavanja. I dok se sintetički mediji trenutno još uvijek u većini slučajeva koriste kao izvor zabave, jasno je kako mogu imati vrlo štetan učinak. Teorijskim razmatranjem potvrđ uje se hipoteza da su sintetički mediji plodno tlo za umjetn u proizvodnju , manipulaciju i modificiranje podataka i medija.This final paper contains a theoretical approach to digital age media, artificial intelligence and synthetic media and how they are divided. Using viral videos, the most famous virtual influencer, Lil Miquela, and PokemonGo!, a game created using augmented reality, it shows how these types of synthetic medi a work and the issue of their existance. Synthetic media is making it's way into the world of technology at the speed of light, and is just as quickly becoming an interesting subject of study. And while synthetic media is currently still mostly used as a s ource of entertainment, it is clear that it can have a very harmful effect. The theoretical consideration confirms the hypothesis that synthetic media pose as a fertile ground for artificial production , manipulation and modification of data and media
Guardians of regional culture - the importance of cultural and artistic manifestations in shaping cultural memory
Tema ovog diplomskog rada je govorenje o kulturno-umjetničkim manifestacijama kao čuvaricama regionalne kulture, ali i njihovu utjecaju na stvaranje kolektivne kulturne memorije. Donesene su osnovne definicije pojma kultura kao i srodnih pojmova koji se vežu uz izabranu temu ovoga rada – pojam kulturne baštine te njezin odnos s turizmom. Kao dio kulturne turističke ponude organizira se velik broj festivala, smotri, ali i drugih manifestacija. Osim potencijalne turističke važnosti, zanimanje za kulturu pokazuje i volju regionalne/lokalne zajednice da svoju kulturu zaštiti od zaborava i očuva za nove generacije. Na početku rada postavljena je teza kako su dugogodišnje tradicionalne kulturno-umjetničke manifestacije uvelike zaslužne za očuvanje brojnih običaja od zaborava, ali i oblikovanje kolektivne kulturne memorije određene zajednice, posebice ruralnih krajeva. Prikazivanjem primjera kulturne manifestacije Ižimača teza je potvrđena.The topic of this thesis was to talk about cultural and artistic manifestations as guardians of regional culture, but also their influence on the creation of collective cultural memory. The basic definitions of the term culture, as well as related terms that are related to the chosen topic of this work - the term cultural heritage, but also its relationship with tourism, were introduced. A large number of festivals, fairs, and other events are organized as part of the cultural tourist offer. In addition to potential touristic importance, interest in culture also shows the will of the regional/local community to protect its culture from oblivion and preserve it for new generations. At the beginning of the paper, the thesis was put forward that long-standing traditional cultural and artistic manifestations are largely responsible for the preservation of numerous customs from oblivion, but also for shaping the collective cultural memory of a certain community, especially in rural areas. By showing examples of the cultural manifestation of Ižimača, the thesis is confirmed
Portrayal of women in music
Ovaj akademski rad temelji se na analizi prikaza žena u glazbi tijekom povijesti, istražujući kako su žene predstavljene u glazbenim stvarima, uključujući stihove pjesama i njihove video spotove. Glazba je neodvojivi dio ljudske kulture od samih njenih početaka, iako se prvi pisani tragovi o glazbi datiraju iz četrnaestog stoljeća prije Krista. Dokazi o prisustvu žena u glazbenoj povijesti prate nas unatrag tisućama godina, s početkom u drevnom Egiptu. Rad se temelji na prikazu žena u glazbi putem stihova i vizualnih elemenata umjetničkih djela. Povijest glazbe, koja seže unatrag tisućama godina, počela je vjerojatno s ljudskim glasom kao prvobitnim glazbenim instrumentom, no arheolozi su također otkrili primitivne instrumente, poput flauta, koji datiraju unatrag više od 35.000 godina. Neki istraživači čak tvrde da su neki arheološki nalazi stariji od neandertalaca, ukazujući na to da je ljudska vrsta otkrila glazbu mnogo ranije nego što se prethodno smatralo. Tijekom povijesti su žene pronašle svoje mjesto u svijetu glazbe, a prva značajna figura bila je Hildegard von Bingen u srednjem vijeku. Mnoge od njih su koristile pseudonime ili inicijale kako bi prikrile svoj identitet, što dodatno naglašava izazove s kojima su se suočavale. Unatoč brojnim tragovima koje su žene ostavile u povijesti glazbe, ovaj se rad se primarno fokusira na analizu prikaza žena putem stihova pjesama i video spotova. Analizom najpoznatijih pjesama različitih desetljeća, istražuje se kako se žene opisivalo u stihovima te kako su se njihovi prikazi mijenjali tijekom vremena. U radu se također istražuju različiti žanrovi glazbe i njihov pristup prikazu žena, s naglaskom na razlike i sličnosti u prikazima ženskog lika. Osim toga, u radu se progovora o ulogama žena u glazbenoj industriji te kako njihov prikaz utječe na društvo. U svrhu bolje razumjevanja uloge žene u glazbi kroz povijest i percepcija ženskoga spola, provedeno je anketno ispitivanje na uzorku od devedeset osoba.This academic paper is based on the analysis of the representation of women in music throughout history, examining how women have been portrayed in musical works, including song lyrics and their music videos. Music has been an inseparable part of human culture since its very beginnings, although the first written records of music date back to the 14th century BC. Evidence of the presence of women in the history of music accompanies us back thousands of years, starting with ancient Egypt. The paper focuses on the portrayal of women in music through lyrics and visual elements of artistic works. The history of music, spanning thousands of years, likely began with the human voice as the original musical instrument. However, archaeologists have also unearthed primitive instruments such as flutes dating back over 35,000 years. Some researchers even argue that certain archaeological findings predate the Neanderthals, indicating that the human species discovered music much earlier than previously believed. Throughout history, women have found their place in the world of music, with the first significant figure being Hildegard von Bingen in the Middle Ages. Many of them used pseudonyms or initials to conceal their identities, further highlighting the challenges they faced. Despite the numerous traces that women have left in the history of music, this paper primarily focuses on the analysis of the portrayal of women through song lyrics and music videos. Through an analysis of the most famous songs from different decades, it explores how women have been described in lyrics and how these portrayals have evolved over time. The paper also investigates various music genres and their approach to representing women, with an emphasis on differences and similarities in the depiction of female characters. Additionally, the paper delves into the roles of women in the music industry and how their portrayal impacts society. In order to better understand the role of women in music throughout history and the perception of the female gender, a survey was conducted with a sample of ninety individuals
Anglicisms: obstacles in social media use of older adults
U današnjem digitalnom dobu, engleski jezik igra ključnu ulogu u komunikaciji na globalnoj razini, što dovodi do pojave anglizama - engleskih izraza koji se integriraju u druge jezike poput hrvatskog. Ovaj fenomen značajno je prisutan u hrvatskim medijima i na društvenim mreţama. Istraţivanje je provedeno putem ankete, pri čemu je ciljana skupina ispitanika bila starija dobna skupina, odnosno digitalni migranti. Rezultati istraţivanja pokazali su da starije dobne skupine često doţivljavaju anglizme kao prepreku u razumijevanju sadrţaja na društvenim mreţama.In today's digital age, the English language plays a pivotal role in global communication, leading to the emergence of anglicisms - English expressions integrated into other languages such as Croatian. This phenomenon is significantly present in Croatian media and on social networks. The research was conducted through a survey, with the targeted group of respondents being older age groups or digital migrants. The survey results indicated that older age groups often perceive anglicisms as a barrier to understanding content on social media
Analysis of the mutual relationship and influence of journalism and public relations - similarities and differences
Odnos između novinara i stručnjaka koji su u području odnosa s javnošću oduvijek je bila zanimljiva tema koja zaokuplja pažnju i raspravu kako njih samih, tako i same struke. Za njihov međusobni odnos može se reći kako je od samih početaka bio težak i kompliciran iako bi suradnja ove dvije profesije bila poželjna. Novinarstvo je aktivnost prikupljanja, stvaranja i predstavljanja vijesti i informacija, a odnosi s javnošću je funkcija koja stvara i brine se za odnose između organizacije i njenih interesnih javnosti kako bi se ostvarili organizacijski ciljevi. Iako imaju različite opise poslova, izazovi njihovih profesija čine ih izrazito povezanima. U radu je prikazan intervju u kojem se razgovaralo s tri novinara i tri stručnjaka za odnose s javnošću. Glavni cilj ovog rada je istražiti odnos između obje profesije, odnosno novinara i PR-ovca te prikazati kako je za uspješno obavljanje zadataka i poslova potrebna njihova međusobna suradnja.A relation between journalists and experts that are connected in the fields of public relations has always been a interesting topic that preoccupies attention and discussion between themselves and the profession by itself. It can be said that their relation is hard and complicated from the beginning although the cooperation of these two professions is advisable. Journalism is an activity of collecting, making and informing about reports and informations, while public relations is a function that makes and takes care of relations between organization and its interesting publicity with the intention of achieving organizational goal.
