Abstract

The Augmented Reality camera effects feature on Instagram provides users with the freedom to create, experiment, and share visual content without limitations, thereby presenting diverse self-images. Remarkably, Indonesia, ranking fourth globally in terms of Instagram users in 2022, demonstrates remarkable adoption of this AR camera effects feature, indicating rapid adoption of new media technology. This research investigates how users engage with this technology to redefine their identities and transcend traditional human boundaries. Through a desk study method, this study analyzes the "Camera Effect" feature on Instagram as a focal point for understanding the phenomenon of self-representation and exploring the concept of posthumanism. By referencing Frank Webster's theory of information society and the posthuman concept in literature, this research reveals that the AR feature on Instagram is a powerful cultural medium for self-representation, overcoming limitations between humans and technology in Indonesian Society. Self-representation becomes pivotal in posthumanism, and AR technology enables exploration and experimentation of diverse identities and expressions. Thus, Instagram's AR technology provides users with new ways to represent themselves, transforming the paradigm of representation and self-identity.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to demonstrate how the concepts of monoculturalism are evident in the Nussa children's web series animations. Utilizing a qualitative approach, the research involved content analysis of five specific episodes from the Nussa Official YouTube channel. The analysis employed a semiotic approach to uncover both explicit and implicit meanings. The study's framework for monoculturalism is based on the concepts outlined in "Golden Truth" from the publication "The Danger of Monoculturalism in the XXI Century" and Indonesia's Broadcasting Law No. 32/2002, particularly Articles (2) and (36). These concepts highlight four key points: (1) The prevalence of a homogeneous society; (2) An inadequate portrayal of tolerance; (3) Insufficient diversity; and (4) A lack of communicative interaction and representation through cultural symbols. The findings reveal that the Nussa animated content does not adequately depict societal and cultural variety in each episode. Additionally, the Nussa production team fails to incorporate dialogues and symbols that reflect Indonesia's rich cultural diversity. In conclusion, it is recommended that future episodes of Nussa's animated web series should incorporate greater diversity.
