Abstract

Globalization has reshaped cultural consumption among youth, particularly in urban centers where traditional music struggles to maintain relevance. This study investigates how globalization affects adolescents' perceptions and engagement with traditional songs in Makassar, Indonesia. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research involved ten youth participants aged 15 to 19 and employed interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings indicate a dominant preference for global music genres such as K pop and Western pop, shaped largely by exposure through platforms like YouTube and TikTok. Traditional songs were minimally recognized and often regarded as outdated. However, youth expressed willingness to re-engage with traditional music if presented through modern digital formats. The study highlights the breakdown of intergenerational cultural transmission and the limited role of schools and families in cultural education. Nonetheless, digital media and participatory culture present viable strategies for revitalizing traditional music. By promoting hybrid musical forms, community based initiatives, and educational reforms, traditional music can be repositioned as a dynamic component of youth identity. The study contributes to cultural sustainability discourse, offering actionable insights for policy and practice in preserving musical heritage in urban, globalized contexts.

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence into artistic practice has transformed computational creativity into a dynamic field where human intuition and algorithmic processes converge. This narrative review examines how human–AI collaboration reshapes creativity, highlighting both opportunities and challenges. A systematic literature search was conducted across databases including Scopus, IEEE Xplore, Google Scholar, and the ACM Digital Library, using keywords such as “computational creativity,” “generative art,” and “human–machine collaboration.” Inclusion criteria prioritized peer-reviewed studies from the last decade, with attention to both technical innovations and socio-cultural dimensions. Findings reveal that collaborative approaches between humans and AI yield more complex and innovative artistic outcomes, supported by techniques such as neural painting and generative music models. Empirical studies demonstrate increasing acceptance of AI-generated art, although biases remain, as audiences often perceive human-made works more favorably. Results also underscore the influence of individual expertise, social interactions, and technological infrastructure on creative processes. Cross-cultural comparisons highlight disparities, with greater acceptance and infrastructure in Europe and North America, contrasted with limited access and cultural ambivalence in developing regions. Discussion points to systemic factors, including policy and education, as critical determinants of adoption and trust. The review concludes that advancing computational creativity requires inclusive access to AI tools, public education to reduce skepticism, and multidimensional evaluation metrics. Future research should expand global perspectives and integrate psychological and cultural frameworks, ensuring equitable participation in the evolving landscape of AI-mediated art.

Abstract

Music therapy has gained increasing recognition as a non-pharmacological intervention for improving mental health in both clinical and community settings. This narrative review aimed to synthesize current evidence on its effectiveness, methodological approaches, and systemic challenges. Literature was systematically identified through major databases including PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, using keywords such as "music therapy," "mental health," "anxiety," "depression," and "stress." Inclusion criteria focused on empirical studies, randomized controlled trials, cohort research, and systematic reviews addressing mental health outcomes. Findings demonstrate that music therapy significantly reduces symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress while enhancing social interaction and overall well-being. Clinical studies reported improvements among intensive care patients and older adults, while community-based interventions benefitted adolescents and caregivers. Technological innovations, including mobile applications and digital delivery platforms, have expanded accessibility and demonstrated outcomes comparable to conventional therapy. Global evidence suggests consistent benefits across cultural and healthcare contexts, reinforcing music’s universality as a therapeutic medium. However, systemic barriers such as limited policy support, inadequate professional training, and stigma against non-pharmacological interventions hinder widespread adoption. The review concludes that music therapy offers substantial promise for integration into mental health care but requires stronger evidence from long-term studies and culturally diverse populations. Policy reform, standardized methodologies, and digital innovation are key strategies to ensure sustainable implementation. By addressing current gaps, music therapy can be established as an essential component of comprehensive mental health care.

Abstract

The governance of music festivals in Indonesia is undergoing a paradigm shift driven by rising demands for legal compliance, risk management, and sustainability. This study investigates the integration of these three dimensions within the context of Indonesian music festivals, drawing from qualitative case studies, regulatory analysis, and international best practices. The objective is to develop a scalable framework that aligns operational safety, environmental responsibility, and legal adherence. Methodologically, the research employs a qualitative design, focusing on in depth case analyses of three Indonesian festivals Java Jazz, Synchronize, and Joyland. Data were gathered through document reviews, stakeholder interviews, and thematic analysis of relevant laws and standards, including PP 56/2021, PP 109/2012, UU 27/2022, ISO 20121, and the Event Safety Guide. The results highlight effective practices in operational risk management, including the use of Safety Cells, tabletop drills, and digital monitoring tools. Sustainability efforts show traction in waste reduction, renewable energy usage, and vendor accountability, guided by ISO aligned practices. However, legal compliance remains inconsistent due to enforcement gaps and low regulatory literacy among organizers. Stakeholders such as sponsors, artists, and audiences significantly influence accountability, while public policy and interdisciplinary research emerge as enablers of broader adoption. This study concludes that an integrated governance model uniting compliance, risk, and sustainability is essential for the long term viability of Indonesian festivals. The proposed framework not only improves operational performance but also fosters public trust, stakeholder alignment, and environmental stewardship.

Abstract

The digital reinterpretation of Batik, a UNESCO-recognized Intangible Cultural Heritage, presents both opportunities and ethical challenges. This study explores the boundaries of cultural remixing through a mixed-methods approach combining user experience (UX) testing, qualitative interviews, and legal-normative analysis. Forty illustrators participated in a task-based UX experiment to assess perceptions of usability, aesthetic value, and ethical alignment when reimagining Batik motifs. Senior illustrators exhibited higher ethical sensitivity and design fidelity, as confirmed by ANOVA. Stakeholder interviews with artisans, curators, and designers revealed themes emphasizing respect for pakem (traditional rules), the importance of community participation, and risks of symbolic dilution. Legal analysis of Indonesian Copyright Law and UNESCO ICH guidelines highlighted gaps in enforcement and the need for soft-law instruments such as ethical toolkits and participatory protocols. Findings suggest that responsible innovation requires integrated frameworks combining legal, educational, technological, and participatory strategies. A Digital Ethics Toolkit is proposed to support designers in navigating cultural representation responsibly. This toolkit includes a pakem rubric, attribution checklist, AI output review system, and co-design templates. The study concludes that safeguarding heritage in digital contexts must involve collaborative stewardship, where ethical awareness and cultural dialogue shape innovation.
