Abstract

Keberadaan tari Bedaya di lingkungan kraton memiliki beberapa fungsi penting   yang terkait dengan upacara kebesaran raja, upacara penobatan raja, dan upacara resmi kerajaan. Tari Bedaya menjadi simbol-simbol status bagi raja dan  merupakan pelengkap jabatan raja, dengan demikian wajar bila tari Bedaya mendapat dukungan sepenuhnya dari raja. Bedaya adalah suatu bentuk tari kelompok, yang dilakukan oleh sembilan penari putri dengan tatarias dan busana yang sama. Masing-masing penari membawakan peran dan nama yang berbeda, yaitu: Batak, Gulu, Dhadha, Endhel Weton, Endhel Ajeg, Apit Meneng, Apit Wingking, Apit Ngajeng, dan Boncit. Tari Bedaya mempunyai konvensi tertentu, dalam hal isi maupun wujud tarinya, yang meliputi susunan tari, pola gerak, pola ruang, pola lantai, iringan, dan tatarias busana. Di sisi lain tari Bedaya mengalami perkembangan hingga keluar kraton, dan juga tentunya konvensi-konvensi pada    tari Bedoyo mengalami perubahan pula antara Bedaya di luar kraton dengan Bedaya kraton. Hingga banyak bermunculan karya-karya baru tari Bedaya bahkan lepas dengan konvensi Bedaya Kraton.   Kata Kunci: Simbol, Bedaya, Lemah Putih, Semiotik

Kedua adalah faktor penonton (Apresiator), yangperlu diperhatikan adalah tari yang kita sajikan untuk dokomunikasikankepada penonton. Kedua faktor tersebut harus betul-betul diperhatikankarena keduanya saling mendukung satu sama lain.Kata Kunci : Fungsi, Tari, Pertunjukan.

Abstract

The problem of metaphor is the reality of creative power of language and in the metaphor there is something spoken and compared. There is a distance between tenor and vehicle which is very interesting. The more distant the tenor and vehicle, the more expressive the meaning of metaphor is. There are four kinds of metaphors; they are anthropomorphic, animal, abstract to concrete and the opposite, and sinesthetic. These kinds of metaphor are for knowing how the perception about static space predicted as human being, animal or other creatures and there is the change of concept causing the resemblance of the perceptual and physical meanings. Metaphor is still interesting for the linguists because it is viewed as a process of transference between two conditions or experiences based on the association of each others. Several kinds of the metaphor are found in lyric of Java’s tembangs. They are tembang gedhe, tengahan, macapat, maupun tembang dolanan Kata kunci : ekspresif, cakepan, tembang Jawa

Abstract

This study explores the development of innovative wayang craft designs in Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. This is necessary research because wayang functions as a medium of contextual communication between the puppeteer and an audience by transmitting the values of life through entertainment. However, it is rare to find all-night-long wayang performances currently; there is a considerable probability of this craft going extinct in the next few years. This is a research and development method. The type of research and development uses the ADDIE model. Data collection techniques were carried out through interviews, observations, and documentation of Wayang Godhong. The respondents were tobacco farmers and puppeteers in Magelang City, Central Java Province, Indonesia. The result led to the development of Wayang Godhong design which adopts the structures and shape of tobacco leaves. Despite the use of this leaf, the message “smoking is violated” is boldly written on its body. The researcher also implemented the Wayang Godhong product through a puppet show entitled “Smoking Violated” performed on youth and social activists in Magelang Regency. The message from the show is social criticism to the public of the prohibition on smoking in public places, which is still being violated. The results showed that the public accepted the Wayang Godhong performance and positively impacted public knowledge and awareness regarding the prohibition of smoking in public places.

Abstract

Plaosan Temple is a building structure filled with beautiful ornaments and decorations, reliefs, and statues. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the metaphorical aspect of symbolism in the Plaosan temple reliefs, which represent Hindu and Buddhist ideologies. It also aims to understand the iconographic meaning of this structure as a temple building that unites differences for a peaceful purpose. This is a qualitative descriptive and interpretative research with the “minus one” technique used to determine the effect of removing an element of the temple. The hermeneutic-metaphorical interpretive description was used to visualize the ornaments’ symbols and determine the philosophical meaning between the ideological domain of Hindu symbolism and Buddhism. The results showed that the manifestation of love from the Plaosan temple is indicated in its temple’s relief elements and decorated ornaments.

Abstract

Tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.), a type of tropical plant that grows in Indonesia has various benefits and has been widely studied by various disciplines. The study of Tamarind as a source of ideas for art creation, on the other hand, has not been widely carried out. The aims of this study are: (1) To explain the process of creating Semarang batik motifs using the idea of Tamarind through the stylization of forms; (2) to analyze the shape of the Tamarind batik motif to strengthen the identity of Semarang’s local culture. This study uses a qualitative approach with phenomenological methods to examine phenomena related to the creation process and the uniqueness of locality-based batik motifs on batik artisans in Semarang City. The data collection techniques used were observation, in-depth interviews, and document studies. The data that has been collected was analyzed interactively through data reduction, presentation, and conclusions with the scope of analysis in intra-aesthetic and extra-aesthetic studies. The results showed that: (1) Tamarind is a typical plant that is closely related to the toponym of the city of Semarang so it becomes a source of ideas for the creation of locality-based batik motifs through the stylization technique by Semarang batik artisans; (2) Visualization of the shape of the Tamarind batik motif that has been produced shows the diversity and uniqueness of the form as an aesthetic expression of the batik artisan in responding to the beauty of the natural and socio-cultural environment in Semarang City according to the level of knowledge and aesthetic experience. This research contributes to the batik artisan in exploring the diversity of local plant species as a source of ideas for creating environmentally-based batik motifs to strengthen the value of local cultural identity.
