The article presents a study analyzing the attitudes of managers regarding the digitalization of art organizations. The results of an empirical survey are provided, showing the desire for digitalization within these organizations. The research focuses on the digitalization of art management processes and presents a prototype for digital art management. The relevance of the prototype is expressed in the fact that this area remains under-researched and requires further attention and development, especially in the context of rapidly evolving technologies and the growing needs of the contemporary art sector.

In today’s digital age, intrusion detection systems help protect IoT (Internet of Things) systems from harmful activities. This study presents a new method using fuzzy clustering and swarm intelligence to spot hackers in wireless networks. More dependence on internet systems has caused a rise in cybersecurity threats, making it clear that traditional security methods are not enough. Swarm intelligence combined with fuzzy logic in the suggested approach allows the system to create flexible clusters that can spot unusual traffic in a network. With swarm intelligence, finding optimal ways to group data is enhanced and fuzzy logic helps cope with cases where things are unclear or share similar traits. With this method, you see more accurate detection and fewer false alarms which works well in the complicated and various settings of IoT environments. It outlines the design, explains how the algorithm works and shows the outcomes of the simulation, verifying that the approach is successful in early threat detection and responding rapidly which helps make IoT security systems more secure.

In order to investigate the impact of environmental information on the purchase of electric automobiles, the present research applied the Theory of Planned Behavior. Using primary data (n = 214), the proposed research model was validated using covariance-based structural equation modelling. The findings confirmed a positive relationship between attitudes towards electric vehicles and environmental knowledge. It was discovered that purchase intentions and perceived consumer effectiveness were significantly related. Control over availability also has a significant impact on buyers’ intentions. The study’s findings were unable to show a significant indirect relationship between environmental knowledge and purchase intentions. However, in this study, purchase behavior was significantly predicted by individuals’ purchase intentions. In particular, females were found to have stronger buy intentions than their male counterparts when it came to the effects of consumer perceived efficacy and control over availability (significant moderation of gender). The study’s empirical findings had a variety of theoretical and practical ramifications.

The development of modern society requires the application of new forms of presentation of educational content in order to build personality and form a generation of creative people. It’s necessary that the approach and forms of the structure of the learning process to stimulate students’ development to the maximum extent. Attracting students’ attention and stimulating their activity by presenting the learning content most effectively is a challenge for the teacher. This way, their interest should be increased and they should acquire lasting, long-term knowledge in Art music. This report presents the possibilities of consolidating and enriching students' knowledge and skills in the academic discipline Music outside the traditional music lesson. The research presents the benefit of education through music computer technology Sound Recording in a recording studio for students aged 10-16 as a part of their scheduled observation hours in extracurriculum learning environment. The aim is to increase students' interest in music as an art and to support the gaining of new knowledge. In this way, the students will be provoked to get to know their surroundings in full. At the same time, the research is an example of successful good practice to motivate and support music teachers with new practical ideas.

This article reflects a study related to the master's programs in "Art Therapy" in Bulgarian universities and formulates the need for training personnel in this field. An analysis of the existing master's programs was made, and a new interdisciplinary master's program "Art Therapy" was presented at the Academy of Music, Dance and Visual Arts "Prof. Asen Diamanidev" - Plovdiv, Bulgaria.

The practice of the native musical - pedagogical educational institutions shows that at the present time, among the students studying in the general piano class, in fact, there are many of them who do not have any piano playing background. Deprived of the advantages of a receptive childhood, flexibility of the motor-play apparatus, they find it difficult to get used to playing this instrument. The development of a practical methodology based on the achievements of modern theoretical thinking will make it possible to find the most effective methods for teaching adult learners, and, above all, the students that belong to the category of „early adulthood”.

The composition creation of Liviu Stirbu is an example of organic interaction of the idioms of music of European professional tradition, national folklore as well as mass musical culture. The purpose of the authors of this article is to reveal the unique concept of Rhapsody for violin, cello and piano that emerged as a result of the interaction of music of academic tradition, on the one hand, and rock and jazz music, on the other. The influence of academic musical culture is found in using the genre features of scherzo, march and concerto, while the metro-rhythmic aspects of this opus are close to the phenomena of mass musical culture.

The article touches upon the relevant problems of modern psychological and pedagogical science: support for and development of gifted school students, psychological resources of personality, and emotional intelligence. At present, the problem of the features of emotional intelligence development in gifted students is theoretically and empirically underexplored within the framework of the resource approach. The goal of the study is to research the features of the development of emotional intelligence as a psychological resource in gifted adolescent school students. The following methods were used: emotional intelligence questionnaire, resilience test, D. Raven’s Progressive Matrix Scale; methods of mathematical statistics (analysis of variation, correlation analysis, etc.). The first part of the article presents an overview of studies on the problem of psychological resources and emotional intelligence, the current state of research in these fields is outlined, and the understudies issues and prospects for further studies are indicated. The empirical part presents the study results, the analysis of which reveals the specific features of emotional intelligence development in gifted adolescents compared to regular students. The obtained data indicate certain problems associated with the underdevelopment of emotional intelligence and its components in gifted adolescents which calls for further research and consideration in practical work with gifted students. The provided results of correlation analysis demonstrate a statistically significant association between the indicators of emotional intelligence and resilience. The obtained results point to the need for further study of the specifics of emotional intelligence and the opportunities for its development in gifted and non-gifted school students.

The methodology of research is represented by historical method, which is conditioned by maximally wide period of academic art playing saxophone exactly the time of middle of the 19th – the beginning of the 21st centuries. The comparative method is also used by researcher in the article, as segment of methodological instruments regarding detecting of the differences between solo saxophone masterpieces by Ukrainian and foreign composers. The structurally-analytical and generalizing methods are used for making sequence of exposition of scientific material and approving conclusions and also the outlooks of studying of denoted subject. The novelty of scientific research is defined by absence of treatment of the scientists to cause-problem reasons of the decreased attention Ukrainian composers into sphere of contemporary academic concert-solo saxophone performing. The novelty of this article is also delineating remained scarcely explored masterworks for saxophone of Ukrainian composers exactly Sonata for saxophone with piano accompaniment by V.
