Abstract

Multiculturalism has become a prominent issue in media communication, serving as both a communication strategy and a form of awareness for creators, particularly in visual communication design media. Most of the previous findings on the study of multiculturalism in the media suggest that different cultural backgrounds must be considered for global brands to reach diverse markets since visual language is not universal. In addition, other studies explore the interpretation of multiculturalism ideas in the media and practice participatory design research to communicate multiculturalism value through visual communication media. Nevertheless, in Indonesia, the interpretation study of multiculturalism in designs, especially those created by women designers, as a manifestation of multiculturalism awareness seems to be underexplored. To narrow the gap, this study uses the visual semiotic theory of Roland Barthes to investigate the multicultural significance represented in visual images in the work of Indonesian women designers by outlining the levels of denotative and connotative meanings which develop into myth. This research reveals that the idea of multiculturalism in the design work of Nita Darsono and Sanchia Hamidjaja can provide other counter-knowledge in representing the diversity amongst the hegemony of a single and standardized body myth, such as white skin, ideal body, and race, in media. This approach better understands the audiences and appreciates cultural diversity. Overall, this study sheds light on the importance of multiculturalism in visual communication design media, particularly in representing diversity and challenging hegemonic norms. It highlights the need for more research in this area, particularly from underrepresented perspectives, such as women designers in Indonesia.

Abstract

The film Tarung Sarung is a cinematic work that highlights the richness of Bugis culture in Makassar, Indonesia. This film depicts the masculinity of Bugis men through characters and settings that highlight the attributes of courage, strength and honor. The main character in this film is depicted as an ordinary young man from the city who develops over the course of the story into a warrior skilled in martial arts. This research aims to analyze the symbols of masculinity in Bugis cultural ornaments in the film Tarung Sarung and find out the meaning of the symbols of masculinity represented. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotic analysis method. This research identifies and analyzes the meaning of symbols of masculinity represented in Bugis cultural ornaments in the film Tarung Sarung. The research results show that the symbols of masculinity in the film Tarung Sarung are closely related to the cultural and social values that are highly upheld by the Bugis community. These symbols emphasize the role of men in various aspects of life, from the family to the wider community. Strength, resilience, leadership, authority, wisdom, and discipline are central themes in this representation, showing that masculinity in Bugis culture is closely related to the ability to protect, defend, lead, and maintain cultural values. This research provides several suggestions for developing further studies by exploring the representation of symbols of masculinity in other cultures, combining various analytical methods for a more comprehensive understanding, and examining audience acceptance of representations of masculinity in films.

Abstract

The increasing K-pop music industry phenomenon happens because of the influence of social media, which people quickly access. The simplicity of social media allows collaboration in the K-pop music industry. It can be seen from the partnership of a game developer with a Korean music agency to make a game named Blackpink The Game. By inviting players, players will be asked to simulate being a girl band producer so that the girl band becomes famous and builds a simulacra. Moreover, the players will be invited to be stimulated to be anoBlackpink members to complete a specific mission. With the hyperreality analytics of Baudrillard, simulacra in the Game chooses one member of Blackpink and finishes the task. At the same time, hyperreality is the interaction between members of Blackpink and the producer until there are no boundaries between reality and the virtual world. The study method is a literature review with Jean Baudrillard's theory of the reality of The Game players. The purpose of the study is to see the impact of hyperreality on Blackpink. The Game Players

Abstract

This study examines the usage of symbolic violence in the discourse of the live-stream of an Indonesian virtual youtuber (vtuber), Kanna Tamachi, using qualitative approach and post-structural discourse analysis (DA) method. The focus of this study is on textual elements of language violence used by the Vtuber and their relation to viewer in their social context. This study aims to examine the relations between the usage of symbolic violence and the viewer’s reception. Through the DA method, the linguistic elements of the Vtuber are specifically studied in relation to the language violence content. However, the violent language is studied in the context of local culture, the meanings of which are relevant to values, norms, and characteristics of the local culture. The result of this study confirms that the language violence used by the Vtuber in the context of local culture in East Java is not always negative or destructive. Instead, it provides positive and constructive value by attracting and entertaining viewers, and giving them senses of familiarity and closeness. It also provides economic value to the Vtuber through their status as commodities.

Abstract

This study investigates the visual representation of pitch in two musical scales: the diatonic scale and the Javanese Slendro scale. This research shows how scales are perceived and depicted visually by engaging five young adults in a free-drawing study. Using Jakobson’s intersemiotic translation for analysis, participants were provided with sound stimuli first and asked to draw their visualization of scales using lines, form, and color. The results revealed that the diatonic scale was consistently represented with structured and sequential visuals, indicating familiarity and linearity. On the other hand, Slendro was visualised with more significant variability and fluidity. This study shows that the visual representation of the musical element of pitch does not stand alone but is also influenced by the musical scale and the listener’s familiarity with it.

Abstract

Artikel ini mengkaji simbolisme keagamaan yang tertanam dalam representasi visual dan naratif hantu dalam film horor Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan kerangka studi semiotik dan budaya, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana penggambaran sinematik tentang hal-hal gaib terkait erat dengan kepercayaan Islam, animisme, dan sinkretik yang membentuk lanskap spiritual Indonesia. Melalui pembacaan cermat terhadap film-film terpilih—termasuk Pengabdi Setan (2017) dan Lisa(1971)—analisis ini mengungkap bagaimana sosok hantu tidak hanya menjadi wahana ketakutan, tetapi juga agen simbolis yang melaluinya pesan-pesan moral, keadilan ilahi, dan kecemasan spiritual dinegosiasikan. Elemen estetika kostum, pencahayaan, desain suara, dan komposisi spasial berkontribusi untuk membangun rezim visual sakral di mana hantu menjadi mediator antara manusia dan yang transenden. Artikel ini berpendapat bahwa hantu-hantu sinematik ini beroperasi sebagai penanda budaya pengabdian, pelanggaran, dan penebusan agama, yang mencerminkan ketegangan yang lebih dalam dalam modernitas agama Indonesia. Dengan menyoroti bagaimana citra keagamaan digunakan kembali dalam sinema horor, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa representasi hantu menawarkan wadah yang kaya untuk memahami interaksi antara spiritualitas, identitas nasional, dan media populer dalam budaya Indonesia kontemporer

Abstract

Cases of corruption involving well-known figures in Indonesia always draw public attention. One such figure is the politician Setya Novanto, who was embroiled in the e-KTP corruption case in 2017. This case was considered a significant corruption case, thus the topic also expanded and became a concern for the society. Due to the importance of this case, Setya eventually became the main figure in the cover illustration of Tempo Magazine's edition titled "Kejarlah Daku, Kau Kubekap" (Chase Me, I'll Smother You) which indicates certain implicit elements including signs and meanings that are interesting to uncover. The purpose of this study is to analyze the visual sign structure and reveal the meanings contained in the cover illustration of Tempo Magazine's edition "Kejarlah Daku, Kau Kubekap". Unveiling the meanings behind the signs present in the magazine cover illustration is made possible using a visual semiotics approach, specifically Barthes' semiotics concept. This study concludes that the meaning contained in the cover illustration of Tempo Magazine is Tempo highlighting news about indications of Setya Novanto's dramatic steps using the central government as a hiding tool from the pursuit of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) related to the e-KTP corruption case. keywords: illustration, magazine cover, visual semiotics, signs, meanings.

ABSTRACTThis article contains a study of film adaptation from a literature media (novel) into audio-visual media(film). This research is a case study of Perempuan Berkalung Sorban film by Hanung Bramantyo, whichwas adapted from a novel with the same title that was written by Abidah el-Khalieqy. By combining a textanalysis method from Thomas Leittch, Mathew T. Jones’ film adaptation theory and the result of interviewto confirm the text analysis, this research produced some interesting findings. The research verified thatthe adaptation’s process does not merely focus on technical issue in media adaptation (from novel tofilm), but also focuses on another aspects that will involve the audience i.e. a fact that text and dialoguebecome references that will be appreciated by audience. As a result, there were excessive distortions anddeviations on the text that were created by the film maker caused a bias interpretation. Audiences nolonger interpreted the film as a visual text objectively. Instead, they would think about certain prejudiceagainst the film maker. In film adaptation, certain tendencies of film maker are easy to be predicted byaudience. This fact has caused film adaptation becomes controversial easily.Keywords: Media Adaptation, Transformation, Opposition, ControversyABSTRAKArtikel ini berisi kajian tentang alih media, yakni dari media verbal sastra (novel) kemedia visualfilm. Kajian ini berupa studi kasus terhadap film Perempuan Berkalung Sorban karya HanungBramantyo, yang merupakan adaptasi dari novel dengan judul sama karya Abidah el-Khalieqy.Dengan menggunakan metode gabungan, yakni analisis teks yang berdasar pada teori adaptasifilm dari Thomas Leittch, Mathew T. Jones, dan wawancara tertulis untuk mengkonfirmasianalisis teks tadi, kajian ini menemukan hal menarik, yakni alih media bukan sekedar persoalanteknis pemindahan media, melainkan juga pemindahan yang menimbulkan efek-efek tertentubagi penonton. Apresiasi penonton dilandasi kesadaran bahwa terdapat teks lain yang menjadirujukan film bersangkutan. Akibatnya, distorsi dan deviasi yang terlalu jauh yang dilakukansutradara atas teks sumber berpotensi mengakibatkan bias pemahaman. Penonton tidak lagimemaknai film sebagai teks visual secara objektif, tetapi juga dibarengi praduga-pradugatertentu terhadap sutradara. Pada genre film alih media, tendensi tertentu dari sutradara mudahdibaca penonton. Fakta ini mengakibatkan film sangat rentan menimbulkan kontroversi.Kata Kunci: alih media, transformasi, oposisi, kontroversi
