Abstract

Technological innovations in webtoons, such as the capability of adding background music, change the comic reading experience and thus deserve further research. One of the comic titles that uses this feature is the well-known Indonesian horror comic, Kemala. Background music is known to be an important component in audio-visual media, especially in the horror genre. Indeed, it functions as a tool for eliciting emotions of fear that match the horror narrative. Essentially, the horror genre aims to scare its audience. Having an additional source of horror through the usage of background music might help horror webtoons achieve their goal. It is imperative to have specific research that examines the effect of background music on the emotion of fear in reading horror webtoons. This study, using the horror comic Kemala, conducted a two-group experimental approach: one group read the comic without music while another group read the comic with music to measure the differences in the emotion of fear using a questionnaire. Finally, a Mann-Whitney U Test was done using SPSS; it was found that there was a significant difference in fear levels between the groups. Thus, reading Kemala with background music provides a scarier reading experience.

Abstract

  Visual culture understands cinematic practice not merely as aesthetic expression, but as a site of social meaning production shaped by the relationships between medium, space, and audience participation. Within this framework, expanded cinema opens new possibilities for experimental film practices that transcend conventional representational boundaries through multisensory and reflective experiences situated between reality, archive, and imagination. This research examines the concept of TRISIKON (three situations and conditions: live action, documentation–footage, and animation) as a cinematic creation model that manifests Indonesian cultural diversity through the dialectic of Chaos–Harmony, defined as the convergence of creative uncertainty and compositional order. Through a case study of the work Anemoia Utopia, Chaos–Harmony (cultural diversity) is interpreted not as a binary opposition but as a dynamic space reflecting relationships between humans, nature, and non-human entities within Indonesia’s plural cultural context. This study employs an art-based research methodology combined with a hermeneutic approach to interpret visual symbols, rhythms, and nonlinear narrative structures as intersections between aesthetic experience and social reality. The findings indicate that TRISIKON blurs the boundaries between documentation, performativity, and animation, transforming cinema into a participatory space that invites collective interpretation. Consequently, TRISIKON functions not only as an artistic method but also as an epistemological framework within visual culture studies, offering an understanding of cinema as a fluid and continually transforming cultural practice.

Abstract

Individu dalam komunitas tuli menghadapi tantangan unik dalam berkomunikasi karena memiliki keterbatasan komunikasi verbal. Komunikasi verbal seringkali tidak memadai untuk menyampaikan pengalaman dan perasaan, sehingga dibutuhkan sarana bagi individu tuli menyampaikan pengalaman melalui medium visual yakni fotografi. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana pengimplementasian fotografi sebagai medium komunikasi visual pada kegiatan photovoice dalam komunitas Tuli, serta melihat bagaimana fotografi dapat menjadi ekspresi bagi yang tuli. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain penelitian partisipatif dan eksploratif untuk memahami bagaimana pengimplementasian photovoice dalam komunitas tuli. Photovoice merupakan metode untuk individu mengidentifikasi, mempresentasikan dan memperkuat komunitas melalui teknik fotografi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tahapan photovoice yang diimplementasi dapat disesuiakan dengan kebutuhan penelitian dan dapat digunakan secara lebih luas dan menciptakan peluang partisipasi yang lebih inklusif. Disimpulkan, bahwa pengimplementasian fotografi dalam kegiatan photovoice memberikan kontribusi positif sebagai medium komunikasi visual bagi komunitas tuli dan dapat menciptakan narasi yang kuat yang mungkin sulit diungkapkan melalui kata-kata verbal.
