Abstract

Ethnomathematics is currently also a bridge for the emergence of new strategies in the mathematics learning process. The aim is to make mathematics easier to understand by finding cultural facts in everyday life, such as in the Gandrung Lombok dance. Until now, there has been no study of ethnomathematical analysis of the various movements of the Gandrung Lombok dance that can be used in the learning process. This research aims to explain the ethnomathematics aspects of various Gandrung Lombok dance movements. The research used a qualitative descriptive method with an ethnographic approach involving participant observation, interviews, and documentation. Interviews were conducted with maestros and performers to explain and describe various mathematical phenomena in various Gandrung Lombok dance movements. Then, the collected field data was analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach, and the validity of the data used in this research was tested using triangulation techniques. The research results explain that counting and measuring activities are performed in various Gandrung Lombok movements. Counting activities are carried out repeatedly by counting the numbers one to eight accompanied by accompanying music. Measurement activities in the presentation of Gandrung Lombok dance movements are implemented in the presentation of movement patterns, including hand, foot, and floor patterns. Ethnomathematics related to measurement is carried out by applying the geometric concepts of semicircles, circles, and triangles. The triangle concept is the most dominant concept in various Gandrung Lombok movements, which can be seen in the shape of the hand and foot patterns. One of the findings in this research explains that the concept of triangular geometry is an important element in building the aesthetic image of Gandrung Lombok, which needs further proof.

Abstract

Deaf individuals primarily rely on visual modes of communication such as sign language, which also function as powerful expressions of cultural identity. Despite this, their representation within the arts remains limited, particularly in Indonesia, where access and inclusion are still developing. This study explores how visual art, specifically zine-making, can serve as an inclusive and culturally grounded creative space for the Deaf community, emphasizing the interaction between Deaf identity, sign language, and visual expression. Rooted in a constructivist epistemology, this research is grounded in the belief that knowledge is actively constructed through interaction, experience, and meaning-making. To support this philosophical stance, the study employs three interrelated methodologies: Practice-Led Research to guide the artistic process and creative exploration; Aesthetic Phenomenology to examine the lived and embodied experiences of visual creation and reception; and Actor-Network Theory (ANT) to analyze the relational dynamics among human and non-human actors involved in the zine-making process. Through collaborative artistic engagement with Deaf individuals and reflective documentation of their interactions, the study reveals that zines function not only as artistic outcomes but also as inclusive communication tools that bridge the Deaf and hearing worlds. Visual elements inspired by BISINDO (Indonesian Sign Language) operate as symbolic markers of Deaf identity, while the integration of grapyak, a Javanese cultural value emphasizing hospitality, supports the formation of inclusive aesthetics rooted in local traditions. This research contributes to the field of disability arts by demonstrating how zine-making can serve as a site of cultural dialogue, visual empowerment, and artistic inclusion. It also provides a model for integrating local cultural values into inclusive visual practices.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze how the choreography of the Laman Silat Dance, created by Sunardi, embodies the expression of Malay-Riau culture through a combination of Malay-Riau silat movements with 'contrast' choreographic techniques. Using a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods, data was collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation analysis. The analysis focuses on the elements of choreography, including movement, music, costume, makeup, floor design, and lighting, as creative expression. The research findings reveal that the Laman Silat Dance expresses Malay-Riau culture through silat movements, clothing, and Malay-Riau music. The ‘contrasting’ yet dynamic choreographic composition depicts Malay-Riau culture's ‘contrasting’ yet dynamic richness. The Malay-Riau musical instruments used, poetic narration, and energetic movements with accents on the shoulders, head, and hands enrich this dance's aesthetic and narrative dimensions. Thus making it a representation of the cultural expression of Malay-Riau silat. This research contributes to the academic discourse in performing arts by highlighting the role of choreography as an artistic expression of Malay-Riau culture. The strength of this study lies in its comprehensive analysis of artistic elements as cultural expression, which offers a foundation for understanding the balance between contrast in choreography and contemporary movement in Malay-Riau culture. In addition, this research opens up opportunities for future studies to explore the influence of the Laman Silat Dance on the younger generation, especially in terms of how this dance can instill pride and cultural awareness in the midst of globalization.

Abstract

The increasing competition in eco-friendly product marketing has driven the need for innovative digital promotion strategies, particularly on social media platforms. Lerak, a traditional natural detergent, requires an effective communication approach to enhance public awareness and market reach. This study aims to optimize social media marketing content for Demibumi’s lerak products by focusing on feed and motion graphics design strategies across Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. Employing a qualitative method with a design thinking approach, the research followed five key stages: problem identification, audience analysis, idea generation, prototyping, and evaluation. Data were gathered through observation, content analysis, and feedback from target audiences. The results indicate that combining educational visual elements with storytelling in both static feed designs and short-form video content (reels) significantly improves visual appeal, audience engagement, and promotional efficiency. Educational infographics increased user retention, while narrative-driven videos fostered emotional connection and brand trust. The study concludes that a well-structured design strategy integrating informative content and compelling narratives can enhance the effectiveness of social media campaigns for eco-friendly products. The strategic contribution of this research lies in offering a replicable creative content model that integrates design aesthetics, brand storytelling, and audience relevance, serving as a reference for sustainable product marketing in digital environments.

Abstract

This study analyzes the Malay ornaments in the Asserayah Al-Hasyimiyah Palace, Siak Sri Indrapura Regency, to uncover their visual forms and symbolic meanings. A qualitative descriptive approach combined with semiotic methods was employed to understand these ornaments' artistic elements, functions, and cultural values. The findings reveal that the palace's ornaments feature various motifs, including flora (jasmine, ylang-ylang, roses), fauna (dragon heads), Arabic calligraphy, and geometric patterns. Each ornament carries symbolic meanings that reflect Malay cultural values, such as honesty (mangosteen tree), noble character (a cluster of garden flowers), and honor (wall crown). Beyond their decorative function, these ornaments also serve as a medium of visual communication that embodies Malay cultural identity. This study underscores the importance of preserving traditional ornaments as cultural heritage while enhancing public understanding of Malay art. These findings are relevant for supporting arts and cultural education and enriching studies on traditional architecture.

Abstract

Lasem, a coastal town in Central Java, Indonesia, is well known for its unique batik that blends cultural influences from both Chinese and Javanese. The study explores how traditional hand-drawn batik Lasem functions as a visual narrative representing Chinese ethnic identity and helps preserve culture in Indonesia’s diverse society. Through qualitative research, data were collected through purposive sampling of key informants, namely artisans and batik entrepreneurs at the ‘Kidang Mas’ batik center in Lasem. Data collection techniques include in-depth observation, semi-structured interviews, and visual documentation of the batik-making process. The researchers used thematic analysis to examine repeated patterns, cultural symbols, and meaning in the batik-making process. The findings exhibit cultural preservation in practices such as using canting tools, applying nature-based designs, and incorporating symbols from Chinese mythology. These motifs are decorative and tell stories regarding belief, values, and cultural identity. This study adds to discussions on intangible cultural heritage by showing that traditional batik is more than simply ‘an art’ but a living expression of Chinese-Indonesian identity. The combination of symbolic and local elements reflects cultural strength and adaptation, highlighting hand-drawn batik Lasem in keeping minority identities in Indonesia visible in Indonesia’s multicultural society.

Abstract

The rise of digital platforms has profoundly transformed film production and consumption, shifting cinema to internet-based media like YouTube. This development necessitates an understanding of how film aesthetics, viewing practices, and industrial structures evolve in the digital age. While prior scholarship mainly examined industrial transitions and social media’s influence, there’s a critical gap in how digital platforms, specifically YouTube, reconfigure cinematic aesthetics and ontology. This study employs a qualitative integrative literature review to examine how YouTube, as a platform, rearticulates cinema’s aesthetic dimensions and ontology. Key findings reveal three core themes: YouTube reimagines early cinematic aesthetics (e.g., short duration, spectacle) as “digital attraction” through algorithmic optimization; it operates as a modern exhibition machine, commodifying content via its interface and algorithms; and these platform-driven dynamics generate significant socio-economic implications, compelling cinematic labor into a “prosumer” model and transforming traditional film consumption into a “hyper-social non-place”. Ultimately, YouTube embodies a paradoxical hybrid cinematic environment, challenging filmmakers or content creators to balance artistic integrity with commercial demands. This study highlights the need to critically re-evaluate cinema’s evolving form and function.

Abstract

This study explores the process of creating a musical composition titled "Salen-Log Counterpoint" as an effort to adapt the aesthetics of Sundanese karawitan music within the format of a Western orchestral ensemble. The work was developed as part of an intercultural approach within the field of contemporary music composition. The aim of this study is to reveal the artistic process and technical strategies involved in transforming karawitan musical idioms into the systems and organology of the orchestra. This research employs a practice-based method, involving Wallas’ four-stage model of the creative process: preparation, incubation, illumination, and verification. The findings indicate that a contrapuntal approach combining pelog, salendro, and Western tonal systems can produce a distinct new sound texture, despite presenting technical and interpretative challenges. Adjustments in notation and playing techniques are key to maintaining a balance between aesthetic concepts and musical feasibility. This study contributes to the discourse on intercultural composition and the creative practice of integrating traditional aesthetics into contemporary musical works.
