Abstract

The Memayu Buyut Trusmi ritual is a traditional custom that is still preserved by the Trusmi community as part of their efforts to preserve local culture. This study aims to analyze the role of communication practices in the Memayu Buyut Trusmi ritual in maintaining cultural values, collective identity, and social solidarity within the community. This study uses a qualitative approach with a communication ethnography method. Data were obtained through participatory observation and in-depth interviews with religious leaders, key figures, and the community directly involved in the ritual. Data analysis was conducted using Dell Hymes' SPEAKING framework, which includes the elements of Setting, Participants, Ends, Act Sequence, Key, Instrumentalities, Norms, and Genre. The results of the study show that the Trusmi Memayu Buyut Ritual is a structured and meaningful cultural communication event. Cultural preservation is not only reflected in the physical maintenance of sacred buildings through the replacement of welit, but also through ritual communication that is symbolic, repetitive, and participatory. The involvement of traditional and religious authorities and the active participation of the community confirm that ritual communication plays an important role in the inheritance of values, the strengthening of cultural identity, and the sustainability of the traditions of the Trusmi community.

Abstract

The school setting plays a key role in shaping students' character and leadership through scouting activities; however, internal dynamics can lead to conflicts that may escalate into crises, making effective conflict management and communication essential for maintaining organizational reputation. This study examines the internal issues and communication tactics of the scouting organization at State Junior High School 3 Losari, and explores how these factors shape the organization's image. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, with data gathered through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, then analyzed using Coombs' Situational Crisis Communication Theory (SCCT). The findings reveal that unequal distribution of responsibilities, communication breakdowns, and differing perspectives are the primary sources of internal conflict, which are addressed through crisis communication mechanisms including denial, consequence mitigation, relationship building, and problem-solving collectively helping to restore trust, unity, and organizational reputation. While the study underscores the importance of clear communication in scouting organizations, its limitations in scope and potential subjectivity suggest the need for future research with broader focus and more diverse methods.

Abstract

Songs serve not only as entertainment but also as a medium of communication that represents human emotional and social experiences. One song that reflects these dynamics is Taylor Swift's "Exile" featuring Bon Iver, which depicts emotional conflict and communication failure in romantic relationships. This study aims to analyze the construction of meaning in the lyrics of the song "Exile" using Roland Barthes' semiotic approach. The research method used is qualitative with text analysis techniques of observation, documentation, and interviews with song listeners. The main data in the form of song lyrics are analyzed through three layers of meaning: denotative, connotative, and myth. The results show that the lyrics of "Exile" construct the meaning of emotional alienation through signs, dialogue between characters, and the use of symbolic metaphors. At the denotative level, the lyrics depict separation and conflict between two individuals. At the connotative level, these lyrics represent emotional exhaustion, inner distance, and failure of interpersonal communication. Meanwhile, at the myth level, this song reflects the cultural view of romantic relationships trapped in a cycle of conflict due to a lack of empathy and emotional communication. This study concludes that Roland Barthes' semiotics is relevant for understanding song lyrics as cultural texts that represent the emotional reality of modern society.

The Promise dimension is reflected in his consistent presentation of mathematics educational content that is simple, well-organized, practical, and reliable. Meanwhile, the Relationship dimension is shown through his active engagement with followers and his warm, personal approach to communication, enabling him to establish meaningful and lasting relationship with his audience. Overall, the personal branding strategy adopted by Jerome Polin strengthens his reputation as a credible, approachable, and relevant mathematics educator on   social media.
