Abstract

This article discusses the practices and discourse of modern Indonesian theater in the 1980s as a form of resistance to the aesthetic hegemony of the New Order. For 32 years, under the government of Soeharto, freedom of expression was increasingly suppressed, including in the art of theater. Various forms of resistance emerged from theater groups, through practices and discourse that wished to seize the dominance of the New Order’s aesthetic ideology. This research aims to reveal how modern Indonesian theater functioned as a tool of counter-hegemony through the practices and discourse it developed. The research approach uses a critical paradigm with a qualitative method. The primary data are documentation of theater performances from the 1980s and the secondary data are taken from literature about the New Order and mass media articles. A dialogical analysis was carried out to discuss the various data and to explore the relationship between art and efforts to build a counter-hegemony. The research results show that modern Indonesian theater used artistic strategies such as symbolism, humor, and exploration of local traditions to convey criticism, and developed an alternative discourse that challenged the domination of noble (adiluhung) aesthetics. The study concludes that the practices and discourse of modern Indonesian theater in the 1980s reflected a process of negotiation between tradition and modernity, aesthetics and politics, and became a space for symbolic resistance to the New Order system. Through fluid, innovative art forms, theater functioned as a medium of social awareness and a tool of change amidst the constraints of the authoritarian regime.

Abstract

This study examines how technological advancements have transformed the aesthetics of wayang performances in Java. Data collection methods include observations of wayang performances, interviews, literature reviews, and internet searches to capture the aesthetic transformation of wayang performances in the digital age. Given the existing literature’s tendency to discuss wayang performances within a limited scope, this research provides a more comprehensive contribution by positioning wayang performances as an integrated entity encompassing dalang creativity and audience response. Through the analysis of diverse wayang performances, the study demonstrates that aesthetic transformation is evidenced by the dalang’s hybrid presentation techniques, the emergence of novel story repertoires, and increased audience engagement. Significant findings from this study include the growth of dalang’s creative and adaptive capabilities, enhanced interpretative approaches in composing wayang stories, and the audience’s influence in shaping mass aesthetic trends. This study provides important contributions to the pedalangan (puppetry) and the relations of wayang, dalang, audience, and technology. Furthermore, this study contributes to the academic discourse on cultural adaptation in the digital age and provides pragmatic resources for the artistic development of Javanese puppetry.

Abstract

AbstractThis article tries to map out the structuralist and poststructuralist theories as the basis of theater studies. So far, the studies of theater performed by theater academics have always been based on structuralist views; examining aspects of form, meaning, style and exclude the human aspects as forming agents of the structure. Structuralist view is antihumanist. It says that the sign has meaning when it is associated with other signs in a systematic unity of structure and not from its relation to the individu (artists). According to poststructuralist view, it is very possible to do a cultural study of theatrical text by looking at the interrelationship between one text and another outside, including social, cultural, literary, political, and other texts that are present randomly and overlapping (juxtaposition). Therefore, this theoretical mapping needs to be done in order to enrich the theater academics to conduct theater performances studies.Keywords: studies, theoretical map, structuralist, poststructuralist

Abstract

The rapid pace of technology in the 4.0 era constructs conventional transaction models into digital transactions with the growth of various digital startups. The use of digitalization for folk performing arts is still not maximally accommodated, even though the internet has spread to villages. Although various conceptions and discourses on the digitization of folk performing arts continue to roll out, they are only carried out by academics and only a small part of the performing arts community is able to utilize the internet and gadgets for means of communication and interaction with a wide audience. This study shows the utilization of digital internet technology that has changed the pattern of face to face interaction to screen to face through the digital application Senipedia.com as one of the start-ups engaged in the realm of folk performing arts development in Indonesia. The various benefits of marketing through the Senipedia.com digital application are becoming a meeting place for all groups to form the habit of assessing and being judged virtually, preserving cultural heritage and historical values that are useful in the future, and becoming an archive that can be reused as educational material that contains values of mutual cooperation, a sense of independence, freedom of expression, and the formation of mutual appreciation of folk performing arts through the digital-virtual world.

Abstract

The digital disruption caused by social media has precipitated a crisis of relevance for professional photojournalists, blurring the lines between journalistic integrity and amateur content. While existing literature predominantly examines these structural shifts as external threats, there is limited research on the internal, agentic responses employed by practitioners to sustain their professional viability. This study examines the survival strategies used by elite Indonesian photojournalists (APFI award winners) in the era of social media. Employing a qualitative case study approach within an interpretivist framework, in-depth interviews were conducted with 13 award-winning members of Pewarta Foto Indonesia (PFI). The findings reveal that survival is not achieved by competing with the immediacy of social media, but through a "Strategy of Distinction." This strategy comprises three pillars: (1) Adaptive Competence, where technical mastery elevates to critical visual literacy; (2) Institutional Capital, utilizing awards and certifications as verification mechanisms; and (3) Ethical Rigidity, utilized as a strategic market differentiator against unverified user-generated content. This research contributes to media management theory by reframing competence as a proactive defense mechanism and highlighting the role of professional organizations as vital "survival infrastructures" rather than mere associations.

Abstract

Isu penelitian ini adalah stigmatisasi terhadap tubuh perempuan gemuk di masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami representasi tubuh perempuan, mengatasi dampak sosial negatif, dan menghilangkan pembagian kelompok berdasarkan standar kecantikan yang tidak realistis. Dengan fokus pada pertunjukan "Exergie Butter Dance" karya Melati Suryodarmo, penelitian ini mengevaluasi bagaimana seni pertunjukan dapat berfungsi sebagai alat untuk melawan stigmatisasi tersebut. Analisis kritis dilakukan menggunakan metode dramaturgis, mengkaji bagaimana Suryodarmo, melalui pilihan artistik seperti mengenakan dress mini ketat dan high heels merah sambil menari di atas 24 balok mentega, menggugat dan menantang standar kecantikan ideal yang dipegang oleh masyarakat. Penampilan yang penuh keberanian ini tidak hanya menyoroti kekuatan tubuh perempuan gemuk di atas panggung, tetapi juga untuk mempertimbangkan kembali pandangan masyrakat tentang kecantikan dan identitas tubuh. Penelitian ini memberikan wawasan tentang bagaimana seni pertunjukan dapat berperan dalam mengubah persepsi masyarakat dan sikap terhadap tubuh perempuan gemuk, membuka jalan untuk pemahaman yang lebih inklusif dan penerimaan yang lebih luas.

Abstract

In this research, the representation of suicide in modern Javanese theatre is analyzed as a symbol of resistance against repressive power, with an emphasis on the altruistic values typical of Javanese culture. Two theatre scripts, KUP (Sego Gurih Theatre Company) and Dumeh (Sedhut Senut Theatre Company), are the focus of this study because they feature main characters who choose suicide. A hermeneutic approach within an interpretive framework and content analysis of the texts have been used. This method finds that suicide in both texts is not meant as a personal act of despair, but rather as a political and spiritual statement grounded in the ethics of self-sacrifice in Javanese cosmology. In this context, harmony, obedience, and self-control assume a resistance-oriented connotation. Modern Javanese-language theatre, therefore, is positioned as a space for emancipatory social critique. Thus, suicide is understood not merely as a tragic act, but as a dramatic and political strategy used to uphold justice and restore collective dignity. This research contributes to studying Javanese culture and theatrical practice as a medium for contemplating the relationship between the body, power, and spirituality.
