Abstract

Demping, as a tourist village located in Karanganyar Regency, Central Java, has a variety of exciting tourism potential, both natural and religious. The lives of people who are predominantly Hindu still adhere to customs and various activities of religious traditions that are in synergy with their natural beauty. One thing that attracts attention is the public's trust in Sudamala's story. Sudamala tells the story of Durga, ugly and evil until she becomes the beautiful and kind Goddess Uma. Starting from this story, this research attempts to develop it into a children's theater performance by highlighting the values of the Sudamala story. The approach used is a deconstruction perspective from "sanggit" reinterpretation, namely, re-understanding the meanings contained in the story of the Sudamala text with a new meaning. Through this analysis, we can understand in depth the contents of Sudamala's literary works, which are then worked out skillfully in the theatrical work of Buta Grana Ireng children. In the end, the reinterpretation of sanggit in the theatrical performance of the Buta Grana Ireng children was generally able to increase the appreciation of the new theatrical work from the reinterpretation of the Sudamala story at the Sukuh temple and became a new performance work in the Demping Tourism Village.

Abstract

Alternative energy sources are one of the solutions that can help address the issues of the energy crisis and global climate change. Indonesia has joined other countries in pursuing the implementation of a net-zero emissions policy by 2050. Due to Indonesia's geographic location, which is situated across the equator, the country can benefit from the use of alternative solar energy. According to data from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Indonesia's potential solar energy capacity can reach around 4.8 KWh/m2, equivalent to 112.000 GWp, but currently, only about 10MWp is being utilized. This number highlights the need for Indonesia to develop a strategic plan for harnessing its solar energy resources. Visual communication design can play a significant role in the success of this transition. One highly effective form of visual communication is the use of a mascot. A mascot serves as a storyteller; it is memorable and embodies the core values of what it represents. It is a powerful tool for conveying messages to the audience. The creation of this mascot aims to engage the masses in the adoption of alternative energy sources and plays a crucial role in appealing to the emotional aspect of the audience, influencing their decision-making process regarding energy sources. This research focuses on the creative process of designing the mascot's visual representation. Using a three-step design research approach, we have identified the visual elements necessary to develop the mascot's shape, form, color, and characteristics. The resulting mascot design symbolizes a brighter future for energy consumption. It's important to note that this research exclusively addresses the visual aspect of the mascot. Further studies are required to assess the mascot's effectiveness across different forms of media serving specific purposes.

Abstract

The early years of a child's life are widely acknowledged as a critical period for growth and development, encompassing significant advancements in their physical, cognitive, and emotional aspects. While development encompasses many different areas, fine motor skills are the cornerstone of a child's capacity to interact with their environment and attain significant achievements. This research discusses educational toys to stimulate fine motor development in early childhood. This research uses the theory of Palgunadi about design aspects, which are functional, aesthetic, and security of the product. This research aims to produce several alternative component designs that can be placed on a busy board to stimulate children's fine motor development. This research uses qualitative methods with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and literature studies. The design method used in this research is SCAMPER. The results of this research are several alternative components of educational toy design that can be implemented on busy boards in order to optimize early childhood fine motor development. This research presents a comprehensive analysis of the design concept that underlies an educational toy to stimulate fine motor development in early children. The proposed toy provides a distinctive and captivating learning experience that effectively targets multiple aspects of fine motor skill development. This pioneering design contributes to the burgeoning collection of educational toys that are intentionally fashioned to foster skill-building in early children.

Abstract

This essay is the outcome of a study on the Ruwat Murwakala, a traditional cleaning event for humans of sukerta that also serves as a backdrop for Javanese culture and religion. Although it is a religious activity, the ceremony serves as a moral education for society by conveying several symbols of worth. The mantra, one of the key components of the murwakala ceremony, is the subject of this investigation. This study used semiotic analysis of Ferdinand de Saussure's model and qualitative research methods. According to de Saussure, this symbol or sign can be understood through the idea of the relationship between the signifier and the signified. Reading the four fundamental mantras is the most important part of the ritual in Ruwat Murwakala's tale since it serves as a means of overcoming Bathara Kala. The primary methods for gathering data for this study were interviews and literature reviews. Direct observation and audio-visual recordings of the observation item were also used to obtain data. After then, the triangulation method was used to examine all of the data. The findings indicated that the four primary mantras chanted by the dalang during the Ruwat Murwakala procedure have symbolic meanings that include moral instruction about the tenets of human behaviour. This study examines educational resources from local traditional literature sources to demonstrate the significance of the idea of culture-based moral education. The findings of this study aid in the creation of community-wide moral education resources using an artistic and cultural perspective.

Abstract

Sabrang village was once known for its one-of-a-kind rice variety, Rojolele Delanggu. Despite this cultural abundance, the communities are currently abandoning these villages because they are deemed uneconomically viable. This paper investigates the ways in which knowledge-sharing initiatives involving local governments, women farming associations that have historically led farming rituals, and students from diverse developing countries contribute to the restoration of the Rojolele rice planting pattern. The project invited 20 international students from various developing countries to participate in the In-Herit 2022 program. The program was launched to increase student and local interest in becoming village designers through a case study of the preservation of local Rojolele Delanggu rice in Sabrang Village. This activity was broken down into three sections: (1) learning from locals, (2) participatory learning and action, and (3) proposing ideas to locals. The outcomes of this three-day project were a mapping of opportunities, challenges, and resolutions pertaining to the Rojolele Delanggu preservation initiative. The majority of students were able to quickly fit in with the locals, apply PLA materials, and were paired with student mentors who knew about farming community development activities in Delanggu farming regions.

Kasab is gold thread embroidery on velvet cloth which is widely used in Acehnese weddings as a cultural product. Kasab was introduced to art education at the West Aceh High School through arts and culture subjects. This study used a qualitative approach. The research was conducted in five high schools in West Aceh District, Indonesia. Data collection techniques were carried out through interviews with students, teachers who teach arts and culture, and Kasab craftsmen. In addition, observations were also conducted to observe the collaborative learning process of the community and teachers, as well as literature studies on community collaboration and art education in the field of crafts. The results of the study show that collaborative art education in schools and communities regarding the introduction and process of making Kasab crafts is taught in the fine arts course, which begins with making decorative motifs. Next, the Kasab crafts were embroidered with gold thread. Students and teachers performed field studies at the Kasab craftsmen's place to observe the process of making Kasab. Later on, the students practice making Kasab at school, guided by the teacher and Kasab craftsmen. This activity is very important to be performed in every high school as an effort to preserve the Kasab craft in the West Aceh district.

Abstract

This qualitative research study investigates the role of music as a catalyst for fostering sustainable tourism practices and contributing to the long-term social, economic, and environmental well-being of ecotourism destinations. The focus is on Truthung's musical performances in Magelang, which serve as reflections of local tourism potential and the surrounding natural environment, including the Borobudur Temple and the Merapi, Merbabu, Andong, Sumbing, and Menoreh Mountains. Drawing upon the interdisciplinary concept of ecomusicology, this study employs various data collection methods, including observations, interviews, and documentation. By examining the growth and development of Truthung Music performances, with a particular emphasis on key figures such as Sutanto Mendut and farming artists from Merbabu, this research sheds light on the transformative power of music within the local community. The findings reveal that Truthung Music not only represents the rich local environment and culture within tour packages in Magelang Regency but also emphasizes the broader interplay between nature and culture. "Village Civilization" provides clear evidence of the relationship between nature and culture, showcasing the local potential of the Lima Gunung arts community. This research addresses a gap in the literature by examining the specific role of music in the context of ecotourism and its contributions to sustainable practices. The implications extend beyond the local community, providing valuable insights for policymakers, tourism professionals, and cultural preservationists regarding the significant role that music can play in promoting sustainable tourism and preserving the cultural heritage of ecotourism destinations.

Abstract

This research explores the Mahzani ethnic music tradition, which holds significance among the Tombulu sub-ethnic group of the Minahasa region. As an expression of their cultural identity, Mahzani encapsulates the richness of Tombulu music, encompassing artistic diversity, spiritual values, and the philosophy of life cherished by the Tombulu people. The aim of this study is to analyze the distinctive musical elements that contribute to the unique atmosphere of the Mahzani tradition. This study uses an ethnomusicological approach. This approach collects and analyzes data, namely the melodies of traditional Mahzani music in the cultural context of the Tombulu people as the owners of the music. The ethnomusicological analysis is carried out by analyzing the physical and non-physical forms of Mahzani music to reveal its melodic richness and its aesthetic and philosophical meanings. This comprehensive approach ensures a thorough examination of the musical elements and their cultural implications within the context of the Mahzani tradition. In the end, the result of this research is that the combination of poetry and melody in a single unit of Mahzani's expression at the time has unveiled a unique and mystical atmosphere. At this level, the Tombulu people believe that music has vibrations that are connected to nature and the creator. Music is no longer just a medium for expressing itself, but it is the intention of the expression of human life in relation to their living environment.
