Working in media since 1994. I am now involved with translations and directing of dubbing for a nation-wide television channel. I care a lot about language and precise interpreting (rather than translating) and participate in non-profit projects like a pronunciation dictionary (forvo.com) or the Czech language educational project (czechprimer.org). I also collaborate with the information society magazine ikaros.cz and a number of media organizations. I graduated from new Media Studies at the Faculty of Arts of the Charles University in Prague. My undergraduate field is Media Studies. I am interested in Information and Interactive design, public transit systems and communication in public spaces. My other interests involve photography, architecture and things technical and industrial. I work on a documentary film on an American marine artist, printmaker and a structuralist, Donald Stoltenberg (stoltenberg.info).

Learning, being inspired, words and meanings. Public spaces. Wayfinding and information design. Public transit. Human-centered design. Human-Computer Interaction.

Think. Re-use. Fix it your self.

Audience Research, Information Design, Photography and video

I am getting involved with TED as a translator. I like to participate in projects I am excited about and I like to return something to the community. TED is a wonderful and inspiring project.
