Civilna organizacija Kultura, mediji i edukacija – ARTHEA, kojom predsjedava doc. dr. sc. Vesna Srnić, pokreće donatorsku kampanju na europskoj platformi WhyDonate.com na dan 17.4.2026. i to u ukupnoj predloženoj vrijednosti od 5.000 Eura.

Dubravko Črnjak (57) je branitelj, veteran Domovinskog rata, bez ikakvih, ali zasluženih povlastica, koji se strastveno bori protiv korupcije u društvu i lažnih branitelja koji nisu bili u ratu, ali su si uzeli nepripadajuću korist, povlaštene mirovine. Črnjak je pasionirani medijski djelatnik, kreator satiričnih audio-vizualnih uradaka, djelujući uvijek u aktualnom trenutku na lucidan način.

O njemu je Miljenko Jergović, višestruko nagrađivani književnik, napisao vrlo nadahnuti esej, precizno ga opisavši: Nježni vitez, koji je uvijek na strani slabih i nemoćnih, jer je istina na njihovoj strani. Njegova je Hrvatska zauvijek ostala zemlja slabih i nemoćnih, i on još od 1991. zna od koga je brani.

Ova donacija ima svrhu podržati daljnje kreativno djelovanje Dubravka Črnjaka u medijskom i kulturnom prostoru te posebno u egzistencijalnom smislu.

THE ART COLLECTIVE SUMMER ETERNAL THAT REBELED AGAINST THE GAMING ESTABLISHMENT, WHO DESTROYED ART WITH PROFITEERING GREED, IS WORKING ON THEIR FIRST TITLE: THE RPG GAME “RED ROOSTER”. ARGO TUULIK AND DORA KLINDŽIĆ WERE PART OF THE FAMOUS ZA/UM TEAM THAT CREATED THE HIT GAME DISCO ELYSIUM. ARGO WON A BAFTA AWARD FOR BEST SCREENPLAY.

The Croatian magazine Platforma, a magazine for understanding the coming society, published an article about the new international collective Summer Eternal, founded in Zagreb, the capital of the Republic of Croatia. The team delved into the history and culture of the wider Balkan region while developing RPG game Red Rooster. “I think people from these regions will be happy about some of the things that will be in the game,” says screenwriter Dora Klindžić.
Summer Eternal aims to create a game that features mechanics that are not based on combat and dialogue: “We found a way to create the excitement that the player feels during combat without holding a firearm in their hands,” says Argo Tuulik.

Martin Tisanić (a producer), Aleksandar Gavrilović (the organizer), Andrus Laansalu (a sound designer), Dora Klindžić (the creative director) and Argo Tuulik (the game director) at the Zagreb office.

A journalist from England came to Zagreb, Croatia to record an interview with a member of our NGO ARTHEA, Dora Klindžić and her boyfriend Argo Tuulik about the London ZA/UM company and all the past achievements and problems with their work in the UK… Argo is a BAFTA winner for the screenplay of a famous Disco Elysium video game. Maybe the topic is not our usual artistic field, but their fight for employee rights is… The journalist represents People Make Games, and it is exactly what Dora and Argo with Aleksandar Gavrilović are working on for co-ownership of the players in the (RPG) game…

The University of Slavonski Brod, Department of Humanities, has begun cooperation with the NGO Culture, Media and Education – ARTHEA on a new extra-institutional project that will be realized for the Day of the City of Slavonski Brod in 2026, and performed by Zagreb artists/performers. UniSB docent dr. Vesna Srnić, as the ARTHEA’s president, implements the project in the new Syllabus.

Dr Vesna Srnić, president of the NGO Culture, Media and Education – ARTHEA and her longtime colleague and friend Prof Slavenka Vuković Bryan, director of Languages United in Bath, UK, enjoyed a relaxed summer catch-up in the town square in Slavonski Brod.

Cyber ​​Festung conference at the University of Slavonski Brod (11.-13.6.2025.) – UniSB assistant professor dr. sc. Vesna Srnić, president of the civil organization Culture, media and education – ARTHEA presented on 12.6. 2025. the theme Modular, performative multimedia art.
The aim was intergenerational (vertical) performative multimedia art as a unified primary, secondary and tertiary education. Modular education was a research method of global and local approach to the philosophy of existence, known as GLOCALIZATION. With multimedia access and distance learning (e-learning), great artistic SITE-SPECIFIC performance was realized through group orchestration in extracurricular activities, in the main city square, and for all this, a resistant and safe digital environment was definitely needed.

Dr. Vesna Srnic has just published a new scientific book Electronic Media and Aesthetics in the Postfeminist Theory. The book is sponsored by the Ministry of Science, Education and Youth in The Republic of Croatia.

There are works in the field of media theory, especially electronic ones, as well as in the field of postfeminism, but not in this juxtaposition. The scientific book is written in an appropriately clear and concise manner and presents the material in an accessible manner. The methodology is appropriate to the requirements of social sciences and humanities at the contemporary stage of development. The work takes into account relevant publications in the broader field of the topic.

The new performative project of the civil organization Culture, Media and Education – ARTHEA began with a donation to the Department of Social Sciences and Humanities of the University of Slavonski Brod: for the needs of the project and teaching, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Vesna Srnić, President of ARTHEA, delivered a 65″ interactive monitor Viewsonic (1.450 euros) to the Head of the Department of Teacher Education, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Katarina Šarčević Ivić-Hofman. The project by the author Dr. Srnić, is being implemented in collaboration with the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Zagreb. The project sponsors are the Ministry of Culture and Media of the Republic of Croatia and The City Government of Slavonski Brod.

Media-via president PhD Vesna Srnic visited the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb and saw the exhibition of the avant-garde video art artist Sanja Iveković, with whom she once made an interview for the Croatian magazine Svijet. Sanja is a fighter for women’s rights, for anti-fascism and in this sense she is known for her sculpture the Pregnant Memory (Lady Rosa of Luxembourg) installed in prestigious world museums (MOMA, New York, Luxembourg)…

Sanja Ivekovic and dr Srnic have known each other since 1980. while as a student of art history dr Srnic worked in the Gallery of the City of Zagreb (today MSU) in Gornji grad. And Media-Via president is pleasantly surprised when she sees herself in the photo of a document of one of Sanja’s dramatic works.

Croatian Cantus Ensemble has been developing successful artistic collaborations with several related ensembles in Europe and the world for years. On Monday, October 9, 2023 they were joined by the flute ensemble Kölner Gesellschaft Für Neue Music – KGNM.
In the preface of the program we read about the witty combination of tones of the German ensemble and Cantus at HDS (Croatian Society of Composers): “Ka-Ge-eN-eM + Ce-A-Ha-De-eS = NEW MUSIC!” is the winning formula of the first concert of the new season under the conductorship of the artistic director of the Cantus Ensemble, Berislav Šipuš”.

The following compositions were performed:

KGNM: Magdalena Buchwald – Syrinx II
KGNM: Igor C. Silva – We Live in a Bubble
Cantus Ensemble: Zlatko Tanodi – Cyborg
KGNM: Georg Heike – Stimmungen

KGNM: Anne La Berge – Conduits
Cantus Ensemble and KGNM: David Batinić – Echoes of alienation (first performance)
Cantus Ensemble and KGNM: John Hawkins – Divisibility

The announcement of new music is always exciting, because it opens up a field of synchronicity with the present moment. In the company of lucid art theoretician and excellent music connoisseur Dr. Kruno Martinac, we problematized the relationship between the “old” and the “new”. Dr. Martinac stated the point of view that old music in every performance is always new music at a given moment. The interesting point of view in which the old is intertwined with the new and actually apostrophizes tradition as a process, I personally considered insufficiently distinguishable: what, in my opinion, appears as new in New music has its own syntax that is not only manifested in the way of performance or synchronizing the old with a new moment, but contemporaneity and synchronicity are already given in the composition, in the manner of indeterminacy and aleatorics. Tonight’s concert still brought some overtones of the already mentioned “matrix of new music”, I would say like Cage (Water walk in We Live in a Bubble) or as Dr. Martinac felt it like Stockhausen (Stimung, although the vocal performance in Stimmungen “was like singing into an instrument”)…
Tonight’s new music types are all written compositions that mostly control “the chance”, but the musicians experimentally exposed themselves to the audience’s proximity and feedback during the all-sensing, interactive performance of Heike’s just-mentioned composition Stimmungen – entering the audience.
Digitization of sound is part of the imaginative performance of We Live in a Bubble, and the humane perception of technology was contributed by Cantus’ performance of the Zlatko Tanodi composition – Kiborg.

NGO Culture, Media and Education – ARTHEA president Dr. Vesna Srnić is honored with an agreed collaboration with the Cantus Ensemble on the spring performance in 2024.

The Civil organisation Culture, Media and Education – ARTHEA is preparing sounds for performance art – Modular Performance: Lighthouse of Slavonski Brod (Croatia).

Writing lucidly, visualizing enigmatically, Kipke the artist lives a hermetic reality and existential sensibility, but has to avoid quick statements in that singular Image of the World.

Kipke shows the degrees of his belief, moving from a magic trick to an effort to prove authenticity, all through the hard work.

8th December 2022 to 29 January 2023, the National Museum of Modern Art, Zagreb

In front of the Art Pavilion in Zagreb, the artist Kata Mijatovic set up a small black house without doors and windows, slightly larger than a dog’s house. But the house hums, generating a mechanical threatening sound of some machine…

Without the ancient good, beautiful and true, without the human dominance over technology, only the power for dominance and fear of other people produces a black threat of dead Art…

New performance Glocal Art of Aging is a strong performative symbol and a unique field of knowledge – the image of the meeting of young and old is an INDICATION OF THE PROBLEM in Western culture that needs to be addressed on many levels: philosophical, social, cultural and artistic, religious…

LIVE STREAMING WILL BE AVAILABLE AT: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009361466293

Situationally and performatively through the “site-specific” artistic action (city square Ivana Brlić Mažuranić in Slavonski Brod / noon), we will multiply the simultaneous symbolic overlap of intense symbolic encounter of young and old: through the dance experience of three dancers, students (Elementary School I. G. Kovačić and Crafts -technical school) and 80 students on a multimedia assignment (Teacher Training, UNISB) will meet with 5 senior users of the Home for the Elderly and the Infirm.
Along with minimalist, contemporary music, three dancers from Zagreb of different generations will perform dance meditation on the Square: retired choreographer and dancer Mirjana Preis, middle-aged dancer Tamara Curić and young student Gita Curić.

All students will be aware of the importance of their existential role “moving to meet the elderly”, university students will be mentors who will guide old people a few meters across the square to meet the young, and young people will give them flowers and cakes… During the meeting three interactive generations of dancers will encourage dancing as “the revolution of tenderness” (Papa, I wish you a smile).
Writing about the importance of meeting and listening to “young prophets and old dreamers”, the Pope stressed the need for the reality of wise rooting with the synergy of young, playful enthusiasts with experienced elders who want to make their wealth available to the mutual benefit of growth.

A large number of students will actively participate in the performance by recording multimedia tasks as final works in the course Media Culture (UNISB).
In a scientific review of this phenomenon of dialogic actualization of young and old, eminent scientists with glocal addresses will write: Dr Kruno Martinac from Melbourne, Australia, Professor Ph.D Lino Veljak and Assistant Professor Suzana Marjanić from Zagreb, then psychiatry specialist MA Jugoslav Gojković and Assitant Professor Ph.D Vesna Srnić from Slavonski Brod who is also the author of the project.

A student of University of Slavonski Brod/UNISB Magdalena Tunjic created a short video on performance Glocal Art: Counterpoint Harmony.

By combining the artistic process into a harmony of free variation and contrast punctus contra punctum or point against point, we created a dynamic performative composition. We have woven the differentiation of the stylistic identities of the musicians into the stimulating, minimalist What Lies Hidden at the Root of an Obscure Edifice matrix of a professional composer. Each of the musicians, mostly related by birth in the same city of Slavonski Brod, but now from different parts of the world, from Australia (Dr Kruno Martinac) through Europe (University Professor Predrag Repanic, MA Mus. Aljaz Razdevsek, Musician Tomislav Brezicevic) to Canada (MA Arch. Siniša Tomic), innovated from their environment a representative audio sample of authentic and complex integration into the cantus firmus matrix, with the subsequent fairly summarize procedure done by the Professor of composition.

The resulting intelligent quantum / holographic fractal (pars pro toto) of consecutive octaves with consecutive spacing error tolerance is going to be exposed intensively in a specific place (Town Square), at a specific time (12 AM) for 15 minutes and accompanied with contemporary dancer Nastasja Stefanic from Zagreb in front of the urban citizens and students on a multimedia assignment.

It will be another NGO ARTHEA’s glocal call to the City and the World to live aesthetic and ethical values.
