The article explores the influence of the concept of time on modern art practices, as well as the impact of digital media on the ability of art to anticipate the future. The methodology of discourse analysis is used as a tool to reveal temporal characteristics and the communicative potential of relevant art projects. The digital age creates a simultaneous world in which one can perceive the future by being deeply involved in the present moment. Contemporary artists have the ability to grasp changes hidden from the majority, and to formalize them in works of art. The simultaneous perception of time becomes the clue to the development of this ability, while the concept of time becomes the clue to understanding the message contained in the work of art. As a result, the task of the researcher is to discover the temporal dimensions of the relevant art projects and to examine the nature of interaction between the viewer and the work of art. Taking this into consideration, special attention should be given to the method of involving the viewer in the semantic space of the artwork. The subject of analysis is the communicative model of the artwork, which is presented as a flexible, mobile semantic structure that activates the viewer’s imagination and his ability to improvise. The methodological framework for understanding the communicative model was the neo‐pragmatism theory of social action and practice-oriented social semiotics. The interpretation of the work of art as a communicative event actualizes the discourse analysis that allows us to perceive the artwork in its dynamics and to explore its’ temporal dimensions. At the same time, the discourse analysis is represented not only as an effective research tool, but also as a resource that helps the artist, the researcher and the viewer to develop a flexible and conceptual mindset.

While Past Narratives have events as their basic units, Future Narratives characteristically operate with nodes. A node is a situation that allows for more than just one continuation. Therefore, by definition, Past Narratives are uni-linear, while Future Narratives are multi-linear. Thus, by operating with nodes, Future Narratives cannot only talk about the future, but they perform aspects of futurity that seem essential: its openness, its contingency, and the fact that behind each present moment there opens up a space of possibilities that has not yet coagulated into actuality. Since Future Narratives can be found in all genres and media and, what is more, bridge the fiction/non-fiction divide, the impact of Future Narratives and their conceptualization is across the board and of greatest importance not only to media studies and teaching, but also to any kind of communicating about the future.

The future of sport broadcasting is uniquely positioned between the analogue paradigm of long-standing television broadcast networks and the digital prototype of agile new entrants. Juxtaposed between the two, sport consumers are being marshalled into digital enclosures for efficient commodification. In this article, we map the collision and the disorderly consequences of this juxtaposition between the analogue and the digital markets. We consider the current development of digital media rights through a series of brief illustrative examples in key sports and markets and then look ahead to explore what the future of sport broadcasting might become and posit the impact of digital technologies on the business models of broadcasters, sport content owners, and consumers.

AbstractThe digital media becomes more and more common in our everyday lives. So it is not surprising that technical progress is also leaving its mark on amblyopia therapy. New media and technologies can be used both in the actual amblyopia therapy or therapy monitoring. In particular in this review shutter glasses, therapy monitoring and analysis using microsensors and newer video programs for amblyopia therapy are presented and critically discussed. Currently, these cannot yet replace classic amblyopia therapy. They represent interesting options that will occupy us even more in the future.

The purpose of this article is to provide the basic model of Hofstede and Grays’ cultural values that relates the Hofstede’s cultural dimensions and Gray‘s accounting value. This article reviews some studies that prove the model and develop the research in the future. There are some evidences that link the Hofstede’s cultural values studies with the auditor’s judgment and decisions by developing a framework that categorizes the auditor’s judgments and decisions are most likely influenced by cross-cultural differences. The categories include risk assessment, risk decisions and ethical judgments. Understanding the impact of cultural factors on the practice of accounting and financial disclosure is important to achieve the harmonization of international accounting. Deep understanding about how the local values may affect the accounting practices and their impacts on the financial disclosure are important to ensure the international comparability of financial reporting. Gray’s framework (1988) expects how the culture may affect accounting practices at the national level. One area of the future studies will examine the impact of cultural dimensions to the values of accounting, auditing and decision making. Key word : Motivation, leadership style, job satisfaction, performance
