Don Mirakl Czech Republic Ondra Mikl: born 16 January 1988 in Brno, Czech Republic. After my education at Business Survey (Information Technology in Economics) I graduated from Masaryk University in Brno in General Theory and History of Art and Culture - school teacher training. I currently teach art and IT at Purkyně Grammar School, Strážnice. In art, I engage mainly in experimental methods: automatic drawing, action painting and digital art. I am further interested in new media in music and participate in the projects Lunapark and Uchožrout. I play the guitar and the piano. As an art theorist I also deal with art history, philosophy, psychology and anthropology.
