Abstract

This research examines how Instagram and Pinterest shape users as creators, curators, and consumers of visual and textual content, influencing behaviors, preferences, and cultural identities. It explores how these platforms integrate images and texts into daily life, creating a "memory fabric" for branding and self-expression. Pinterest, focused on curated themes like decor, fashion, and beauty, has become a feminized space, while Instagram emphasizes image creation and sharing, with features like Stories and "Add Yours" encouraging participatory self-curation. The study analyzes how these platforms' algorithms and features shape visual preferences, self-representation, and cultural narratives. It highlights the cyclical maintenance of digital personas, including reinterpreting, renewing, and rewriting self-image, then connects these practices to broader themes of media materiality, cultural production, and pop culture. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the research investigates how digital archives, algorithms, and intermediality influence branding, aesthetics, and cultural memory in the current digital age.

Abstract

This paper explores the conceptual relationship between urban space and photography by positioning the city as a form of visual narrative. Rather than treating photography as a tool of documentation, this study argues that photographic practices actively construct and mediate the meaning of urban environments. Drawing on visual culture theory, semiotics, and spatial theory (particularly the works of Henri Lefebvre and Roland Barthes), this paper develops a framework for understanding how cities can be “read” through images. The analysis is situated within the context of Yogyakarta, a city characterized by the coexistence of traditional and modern spatial practices. Through a descriptive-interpretative approach, the study demonstrates that urban photography does not merely capture reality but shapes visual narratives by selecting, framing, and organizing elements of everyday life. The findings suggest that photography plays a crucial role in constructing urban meaning, influencing how space is perceived, experienced, and interpreted. This paper contributes to visual culture and design discourse by proposing a conceptual model of the city as a narratively constructed visual field.

Abstract

Videography has evolved into a central practice within digital visual culture, particularly in the context of social media platforms and algorithm-driven content ecosystems. This study investigates videography not only as a technical medium but as a form of visual communication shaped by cultural, technological, and algorithmic forces. Drawing on visual culture theory and new media studies, this paper explores how videographic practices are transformed through platform logics, particularly in the Indonesian digital landscape. Using a qualitative case study approach, this research analyzes the emergence of short-form video practices in Indonesia as a form of cultural production and identity construction. The study integrates theoretical frameworks from visual culture (Mirzoeff) and software culture (Manovich), alongside empirical findings from studies on social media engagement and digital content strategies. The findings reveal that videography operates within an “algorithmic aesthetic” framework, where creative decisions are influenced by visibility metrics and platform affordances. In Indonesia, this phenomenon is further shaped by local cultural narratives and participatory media practices. This paper contributes to visual culture discourse by positioning videography as a hybrid practice at the intersection of art, design, and algorithmic systems.
