Title: About Protobulgarian Cross-Shaped Temples?
Authors: Galabina Yosifova

Abstract: The article examines two buildings with a cross-shaped plan, located in Pliska. After the destroying of one of the buildings, the Great Basilica was built on its remains. The report includes all the opinions of researchers about the purpose of the cross-shaped building - a tomb from the early Byzantine period, a protobulgarian pagan temple, a mausoleum of the Bulgarian Khans, a church, a baptistery, a martyrium. Its construction history, superstructure, construction periods, facilities that are functionally related to it, its fate after the adoption of Christianity are examined. A church was built on the foundations of the second crossshaped building. Therefore, her researcher is of the opinion that it was a protobulgarian temple. Most archaeologists believe that only the buildings with a plan of inscribed quadrilaterals were protobulgarian pagan temples and in their works do not mention this building at all and do not comment on the possibility that it was a pagan temple. R. Рашев reminded us of this forgotten monument. Other archaeologists also believe that the two cross-shaped buildings were probably pagan temples and formed a new group of cross-shaped temples in addition to the group of temples with a plan consisting of inscribed quadrilaterals.

Title: From the Chronicle of the Capinovo Monastery "St. Nicolai Wonderworker"
Authors: Pavlina Vladeva

Abstract: The subject of this study is the chronicle of the Kapinovo monastery "St. Nicolai the Wonderworker". The royal monastery was founded in 1272 with the patronage of King Constantine Tych-Assen. It is one of the oldest and largest Bulgarian monasteries. During the Ottoman rule, it was pillaged, devastated and set ablaze by kardzhalii (turkish outlaws). It was rebuilt twice in 1835 and 1856. During the Revival it was a significant spiritual, enlightenment and revolutionary center. It is closely linked to the struggles for an independent church, nationwide education and political freedom. In 1830 a monastery school was founded there. Freedom fighters sougters refuge in the monastery: Velchova plot 1835, Captain Dyado Nikola's uprising 1856, Hadji Stavreva rebellion 1862. Under the Russo-Turkish wars (1877-1878) the monastery shelters refugees from the town of Elena, which was burned down by the Turks in November 1877. A Russian military infirmary for the wounded warriors was also organized. Lientenant Colonel Georgi Ulagai and 32 Russian soldiers are buried in the yard of the monastery. Four monks from the holy cloister have reached the pinnacles of hierarchical service by being elected bishops. The monastery is seen as a fortress of Bulgarian spirituality and guardian of our cultural and historical heritage.

Title: Tilt Brush. The New Perspective of Art
Authors: Sandra Blazheva

Abstract: Interpenetration of ideas, culture, economics, raw materials and etc. are causing globalization in our society. This trend is also assisted by the growing technological innovations. Society is increasingly turning to digital tools to provide fast communications, access to information and goods through the global network, especially needed during the pandemic. In terms of art, these factors contribute to shifting the range from classical means of expression to contemporary art forms focused on digital media. Historically, the discovery of photography in the 19th century radically changed art. Painting frees itself from the function of reflecting objective reality and seeks new means of expression and meaning. In the early 20th century, new trends in the avant-garde art seek to depict intangible things away from visible reality such as the inner world of the artist, emotions, symbols, music, time and more. One of the brightest trends - Cubism is a typical example. It seeks a way to show objects rationally from several sides simultaneously - three-dimensional, but unfortunately it is limited by the means of expression - the two-dimensional surface of the canvas. Digital technologies today have a solution to this problem. They provide digital tools that completely change painting. The canvas no longer exists in the familiar way in which the artist works. It is becoming history. With the invention of VR glasses, the boundaries of visible reality and imagination in art have been removed to enter a new virtual world. Tilt Brush technology goes one step further, giving the opportunity to the artist to create 3D images with a brush in hand while moving in the virtual world he creates. Canvas doesn’t exist, it is a virtual digital world three-dimensional arising from the imagination of the artist and existing only through the eyes of the pink VR glasses. Here comes the question, will technology displace the artist's hand?

Title: Scope of Aesthetics in the Game Model of Artworks, which Contained Function of Augmented Reality
Authors: Svetoslav Kosev

Abstract: As I have repeatedly emphasized, processes in the field of technology and their application for the purposes of the visual arts have always played a major role in the development of my creative vision. An essential role in this direction has my acquaintance with Atanas Markov, with whom we complement each other in many respects and this has a beneficial effect on our teamwork. We have already shared in a previous edition of the conference "Cultural and Historical Heritage" about the work on the projects "Interactive Generative Formations", "Virtual Arena" and "Interaction with a technological organism". We are currently developing an extension of the last of the listed installations. This upgrade consists of the creation of a series of two-dimensional works in which an element of augmented reality must be included. This is essentially not something that has not already been done, but it is a very good element that would contribute the communication with the "Technological organism". The relation is also implemented at the level of interaction, and we rely on the game moment again. Through this act, we involve the observer, as an active participant in the artwork.

Title: Extention of Creative Approaches Visual Artists by Augmented Reality (AR)
Authors: Atanas Markov

Abstract: There are currently over 3.8 billion smartphone users in the world (Reference from 01.2021). Mobile technologies are becoming an integral part of our lives and this undoubtedly provides a large and diverse environment for the expression of artists from all fields. Mobile technology is changing the way we encounter art. They do it mobile and the term "on demand" is extended to "on the go". The works are becoming more diverse and innovative and every person with a smartphone is a potential user of art. Most modern smart devices are now able to provide Augmented Reality (AR) experiences. AR is already used by innovative brands in trade and marketing, but AR can, and is used, and will be used more and more in the art world. We will no longer associate the visual arts with just visiting art galleries or theater and concert halls. Technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), mixed reality (MR) or generalize Extended Reality (XR) open up new creative possibilities for artists and new experiences for the audience. This not only gives new sensations to the audience, but also frees the art from the gallery, thus reaching a completely new audience.
