Author of the VR video: Ing. arch. Markéta Gebrian
Collaboration with: Miroslav Konvalina, the director of Czech Center New York and Anna Kotyza, the director of Requiem.
New York, Czech Center, September 2021.
Anna Kotyza, the director was thrilled to be collaborating with Glowing Bulbs Inc., a video projection mapping company operated by Farkas Fülöp and Matin Daniel Gabor.
I was invited by the Kotyza family to prepare one of the VR exhibitions after the 40min video mapping in the National Bohemia Hall, in Manhattan New York.
Also, I created collages for PR materials for the Requiem. In Oculus Quest 2, there was my 360 video from Neos VR. The name of the project was Fractal Tunnel, Transition of the Soul.
Anna said: "I met Markéta through Miroslav Konvalina at the Czech Center NY. Marketa is an inspiration, and her visions in VR are unmatched. She is a joy to work with, especially on a Fractal Tunnel project for Requiem 2021: Remembering the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks"...
I said: “In my life, I had a rare chance to experience such a colourful vision with beautiful fractals. I survived. I remember this vision. Nobody knows if we have a soul and what happens after we die. I believe that souls exist, and life continues somewhere in the universe and memories of our loved ones who passed away live with us in our minds.”

GALLEGION - UTOPIAN CITY
Author of the digital art projections: Ing. arch. Markéta Gebrian
Installation by: DOX. Other exhibits by Students from studio Petr Hájek CTU Prague and Academy of Fine Art and Design in Bratislava.
Prague, Czech Republic, 2020.
I was grateful for the opportunity to participate in the exhibition Galegion Utopian City. I was invited by architect Petr Hájek from CTU Prague. I used 3D models of students of Petr Hájek to create 2D digital collages representing selected projects.
"Galegion is a 10-year research project that has joined together students of the Faculty of Architecture of Czech Technical University in Prague and Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, in departments led by renowned architect Petr Hájek (Dpt. Hájek/Hulín at FA CTU, Virtual Studio Department Hájek/Rypáková at AFAD). It seeks to introduce new methods of urban planning and test them in various locations.
The exhibition at DOX Centre presents the results of the Galegion research using several projects of Utopian cities.
One of these “composite cities” has also inspired the title of the exhibition. Galegion combines a film archive, museum and gallery. The word galegion, which integrates the three meanings, has been coined by mathematician and theorist Ivan M. Havel.
Other locations shown at the exhibition include a future city in the Shackleton crater, which could become the base for humankind’s permanent presence on the Moon; the Guggenheim Museum in Salzburg, Austria – an underground city in a space carved out from the solid rock, 150 metres underground; the concept of a linear city, designed as a doctoral research project by architect Nikoleta Slováková; or the Adriaport project – an artificial island near the Adriatic Coast, with a 400-kilometre connecting tunnel to Czechia, designed in 1977 by architect Karel Žlábek for the state company Pragoprojekt, which had never come to fruition due to Soviet intervention."

INTERNSHIP IN CZECH CENTER MOSCOW
Author of the Digital Art Presentation: Ing. arch. Markéta Gebrian
Topic: Concept for improvement of the interior design of Czech Center Moscow.
Paid internship in Czech Center Moscow for 2 weeks.
Moscow, Russia, 2018.
As a winning team of the competition of TAČR, Technology Agency of the Czech Republic, I could choose from all Czech Centers in the world to select the location of my internship for 2 weeks. I chose Moscow, Russia, because it was a distant place where it is harder to travel than in the EU.
I had two weeks to come up with the idea of how to treat the interior. I decided it would be best to take care of the ceilings and floors, use digital art wallpapers and simplify furniture. Use grey, black and white.
Image sources are marked in the slides. Visualizations of the entrance of the Czech Center and receptions are designed by Ing. arch. Karel Moudrý and Ing. arch. Martin Rezek. I added my digital artwork.
GENERATIVE ART INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCES, EXHIBITIONS,
LIVE-PERFORMANCES.
My presentation of the paper in Verona 2018.
Author of the Digital Art Presentation: Ing. arch. Markéta Gebrian
Verona, Italy, 2018.
I was excited to present my paper at Generative Art Conference:
"...Ars sine scientia nihil est", Jean Mignot, 1392
GENERATIVE ART
Art - Music - Architecture - Industrial Design - Web Art - Poetry - Visual Grammar - Design Approach - Teaching Theory - Mathematics - Virtual Environment - Literature - Artificial Life - Artificial Intelligence - Cellular Automata - Performances - Artificial Behaviors - Communication - Generative Robots - Mechatronic - NanoArt
Generative Art is the idea realized as a genetic code of artificial events, as the construction of dynamic complex systems able to generate endless variations.
Each Generative Project is a concept software that works producing unique and non-repeatable events, like music, images, or 3D Objects, as possible and manifold expressions of the generating idea strongly recognizable as a vision belonging to an artist/designer/musician/architect/mathematician...
This approach opens a new era in Art, Design, and Composition: the challenge is a new naturalness of the artificial event as a mirror of Nature.

It was great to collaborate with Jindřich Ráftl and Marek Kulkovský in this competition: "How Do You See it? Perspective/ Czech Idea."
My idea was that people will be connected in VR online and don't need to travel as much because of meetings with others. It was the project completed before the pandemic Coronavirus crisis in 2019.

EXHIBITIONS WITH ARTBOX.PROJECTS GALLERY
Group exhibitions in Basel, New York, Miami, Zurich, Barcelona.
My digital art was presented as a slideshow on screens together with other artists' artwork.
I was an opportunity to exhibit my work in the context of international art. I loved to visit Basel, New York, Zurich personally to experience such events and meet my friends in those cities. Artbox.Projects Gallery does open calls for artists from the whole world. The exhibitions are massive and the slide shows of artwork have a very long loop consisting of many artworks of other artists. That was the reason I stopped participating in those exhibitions.
