Abstract

The study proposes that the research design integrating co-creation, interviews, and visual analysis can effectively operationalize a difficult concept of gastronomic nostalgia surrounding ethnic food artifacts. I employed an example of Mumbai’s street foods to examine consumption, production, and distribution practices and compared the cities of Mumbai, India, and Phoenix, United States. Rigorous qualitative analysis of the data gathered from fourteen Indian immigrants in Phoenix suggested that consumption declined when street foods’ core identity shifted in Phoenix. I discovered that the differences in having street foods in sit-down settings or the lack of a public street food culture might never be bridged in Phoenix. However, specific production and distribution strategies rooted in nostalgic memories from Mumbai may boost consumption.

Abstract

The paper highlights the significance and position of the Baitul Rahmah, an early 20th-century mansion in Kuala Kangsar, Perak, Malaysia, as a key milestone of stylistic  evolvement of local vernacular architecture. Its form embodies, a typological variation  at a time of growing Colonial imperialism, while its grammar and language refers to early modern  stylistic expression reflecting the fundamental principles of indigenous architecture. The Baitul Rahmah brings to light how a final evolution and epitome of  the vernacular projects an identity as a cosmopolitan manifestation.  Its internal ornamentation recalls the stylized forms of local motifs and reflect a form of control and minimalism; i.e. an ‘ornamental decorum’. Its wood-carved expressions seem stylised into increasing ‘modernised’ simplication and  modularity, while  its masonry- timber structure reflect the identity of hybridity  in architecture which symbolise the tensions of local communities as they step into the 1900s into a global context.

Abstract

Cultural heritage influences every aspect of life. Man has made the masks in dance rituals, dramas, folk songs, temples and different socio-cultural context. The use of masks in rituals or ceremonies is a very ancient human practice across the world. This mask or mukhas are said to be the base of the Assamese culture and tradition. They are worn mostly in bhaonas. Materials like bamboo, cane, cloth, clay etc. are used for making masks. Samaguri Sattra is a place of conservation and retention of vanishing art form of mukha. Sankardeva’s philosophies had transcended the boundaries of religion and culture and hence today Majuli is one place where devotion has mingled with art in a unique way.

Abstract

Pangeuyeuks as the guide in Ngeuyeuk Seureuh ceremony has an important role to explain the marriage values through symbols to prospective bride and groom. This article describes speech acts used by pangeuyeuks in Ngeuyeuk Seureuh ceremony. Descriptive qualitative and distributional method was applied in doing the analysis of data. The speech acts were analyzed by the theory of illocutionary act to find the function of speech act, syntactic types of sentences to find the form of speech acts, and relationship between the function and form of speech acts to find the directness and indirectness of speech acts. The result shows that the illocutionary acts of pangeuyeuks classified into four types: assertives, directives, commissives and expressives, while the sytanctic types of sentences consist of declarative, interrogative, imperative and exclamatory. The direct speech acts are embodied in assertives, directives, commissives and expressives, wheareas the indirect speech acts are embodied in directive speech acts. The embodiment of the speech acts used by pangeuyeuks reflects special norms of interaction based on Sundanese local genius.

Abstract

There are key ‘forms’ and intensities of natural light when discussed and presented as characteristic archetypical principles in key regions in Asia. Terms used to create certain ‘patterned’ outcomes in terms of the lit environment, and with regards to ancient to modern spaces in Asia are summated as ‘dazzled, dappled and difused’ light. These three intensities or descriptive terms reflect the multivaried climatic conditioned within the Asian region, which traverse the harshness of the tropical sun to the diffused dimness of the temperate climatic sites. Under regions of the tropics, the intensity and sunpath of the tropics are orchestrated by ancient manipulator-builders such as the  case of concux temples of Angkor Wat, at the monumental scale and are discussed as organic and informal dappled sunpaths and gardens in the tropical villages and gardens of India and Malaysia. The diffused light stratagem is discussed with regards of the famous writing ‘In praise of shadows. Modern cases are discussed that represent these three forms of light and its orchestration in space.

Abstract

A general observation on the state and condition of the ablution area at some mosques in the country has pictured the place as slippery and unsafe and not properly used and maintained.  This has led to the assumptions that the design of the place had not thoroughly considered the ergonomic factors and right anthropometric of the users which has created discomfort in positioning oneself and accessing the fixtures during the act.  The impact of the problems has never been rationalized and always overlooked particularly on how it may affect the elderly group that is has become very common and being repeated in the provision of the ablution area in other mosque’s design and development.  In consideration of the pressing issues and needs for an appropriate ablution area as part of safety and cleanliness measures at Mosque or Surau, the design of the facility must be emphasized and be based on the needs and physical abilities of the users. This particular study on the ablution area is necessary as it has uncovered salient and common problem of the current design of the place.  The methodology selected for the study was a combination of several methods.  It encompassed onsite observation on the practical use and performance of the ablution area, interview survey on users’ practical experience and design assessment focusing on the ergonomic and anthropometric considerations of the place through measured drawing method.  The results were triangulated to determine the overall performance of the present design of ablution area in facilitating spiritual obligation of the people. For the purpose, three different mosques in Kuala Nerus district namely Masjid UNiSZA (Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin), Masjid UMT (Universiti Malaysia Terengganu) and Masjid Tok Jembal were selected as case studies. The study on the 3 sites of ablution area has displayed results indicating problems generally based on the location and proximity of water faucet and seating provision at the area which apparently were not based on the right ergonomic. This has created discomfort to the users and leaving messy and slippery ground after use.
