Looking at the cultural area landscape, Tatar Sunda certainly inherited different rich culture then other regions. Not only inherited tangible cultural wealth but also intangible cultural wealth. However, in the midst of an increasingly advanced civilization, now the Sundanese cultural heritage has changed its existence. Functionally many spiritual traditional cultural products have been replaced by commercial modern cultural products. This fenomenon can be studied from the social changes that occured in Kampung Naga in Tasikmalaya regencies, although in the one hand still maintains its traditional values, on the other hand this traditional village has undergone in many changes. The study intends to determine the existence of Sundanese cultural products, as well as products of national culture in general from the influence of the development of modernism. In addition, by examining the phenomenon of community life in the traditional village of Kampung Naga, it is hoped that the indicators that cause these changes will be known. All objects of this study will be investigated using the qualitative-interpretive methods. This study uses cultural theory, Social Change theory, and semiotic theory as the main reference literature.

Meanwhile, secondary data was obtained from written sources such as: books from previous research, scientific journals, personal documents, photos, statistics, audio and video recordings. Therefore, starting from these initial observations, at least the root cause of social change in Kampung Naga can be described, and its cannot be separated from both internal and external factors behind it, for example: 1) The influence of global modernization, 2) The influence of modernization brought by the people of Kampung Naga who live outside the Traditional Village, 3) The adaptive attitude of the Kampung Naga people living in the Traditional Village. 4) Economic demands and community welfare. These factors are the main source of modernism in Kampung Naga.

Abstract

The myth of the one eye symbol is a symbol of the symbolism of symbols that are still unclear and hidden visual signs. Interpretations can be unclear and varied, Connecting with the sign of the Illuminati, the sun god with the eye symbol depicted single or one will have a psychological impact on the one who reads it. History records of artifacts made about the shape of the eye symbol and other forms. It is in ancient religious symbols of worship and leadership. The Sumerians demonstrated the sanctity of certain sculptures, the shape of the eyes enlarged by an abnormal size gave the impression, the message of sensation from the statue. Making performances of religious ceremonies, artists seek to bring sculptures to life in the way they do eye openings. The ancient Egyptian civilization was the originator of the disembodied eye as a symbol of the single eye. One of the well-known symbols of Egypt is the eye of the sun god in Pharaoh's mythology. The image is a mixture of the image of a human eye combined with an eagle's eye, with eyebrow markings, dark cheek markings of a bird. And also various forms of the relics of the modern era associated with the shape of the image of the one eye. In this case, Semiotics is a branch of science that studies a sign. Semiotics comes from the Greek word: semeion, which means sign. Sign as something that represents something; metaphor. The process of a sign as a representative occurs when the sign is reinterpreted concerning what it represents, in the form of visual forms, colors in works of art. It can be said that Semiosis is a process in which the sign becomes a function as a representative of the signified. The focus of researchers in the study of semiotics here is a visual sign of combining entities that are used as representations of the represented entities. This representation process is often called signification. This research is how the visual sign of the one eye on the animated minion character named Stuart can be a representation of the one eye symbol in the past and modern era that represents it both in shape and color.
