I spent the second semester of the past academic year on research leave, which I used to finish my book. It was an activity as time-consuming as it was solitary. That’s why, in October, I returned to working with students with joy and a sense of enthusiasm I hadn’t felt in a long time. Although […]

After more than twenty years of city life — part of them spent in the south of France — I find myself finally back home. I’ve just emerged from a particularly intense summer, having traveled across Europe from Normandy to the Baltic Sea. I’m currently gathering my travel experiences, writing them up for Gogogo online […]

The new semester has begun, bringing with it that peculiar rhythm in which the calendar hides not only dates but also stories.

Monday: I’m going to check out the venue for the May graduation student exhibition and discuss the details of the exhibition.Tuesday: I teach at the Vocational art school in Košice until 4 p.m. – computer graphics and drawing.

I got a vivid mental picture of the good-ol’-days of filmmaking, back when movies were shot on honest to god film reels, each of which had a tangible monetary value. After the ominous “ACTION!“ was yelled out, every second of the camera whirring equaled money burning up – you could only hope that the shot […]

Frankly, not much. Teaching hasn’t started yet, right now we’re slowly getting ready for the winter semester at Pardubice University. Then I’ll be waiting for news from Prague about whether I’ll be teaching again, but it’s still too early to tell. I suppose poor Jirka J., responsible for the Hungarian studies, has just too much […]
