Abstract

Defense and security are serious business, as they represent the integrity and dignity of a nation. It is understandable to assess military power and facilities as crucial to a nation's defense, shown in the use of fighter airplanes. A fighter airplane serves as a window to represent nation's values, philosophy and ideology; appeared through its design form and defense ability. The presented paper explores and compares 2 (two) types of fighter airplane, F-16 of US and SU-27 of Russia, in order to observe and characterize their design forms. Having acknowledged the characteristic of their design forms as tangible aspect of analysis, it is identified that this characteristic can be split into form design and numerical design. Comparative assessment of both fighter airplanes indicates that F-16 fighter airplane of US appears smaller than the SU-27 of Russia. The smaller size of F-16 form was meant to have superior maneuver-ability for air-to-air combat, while the size of SU-27 was meant to accommodate multi-tasking aspects of fighter airplane (air-to-air combat and interceptive act). As results, both airplane forms express different views and ideological perspectives. The F-16 of US shows great and superior ability to carry special task of becoming combat airplane (thrive to perfection), coming with a hefty price and catered for great quality.  On the other hand, SU-27 of Russia shows a wider purpose and not necessarily has superior ability in order to carry diverse tasks of an airplane (multi-tasking), coming with a cheaper price and catered in a great quantity.  Thus, it can be deduced that the American designer of fighter airplane tends to acknowledge specialization of military purpose compare to the Russian's generalization of military purpose.

Abstract

The tradition of illustrated writing and drawing was found in the old manuscripts of Indonesia. Some parts of those old manuscripts show unique illustrations depicting local identity of Nusantara. It is thought that the manuscript reflects societal culture of thinking as well as aesthetic achievement of visual art. The illustrations of those old Javanese manuscripts were well documented and represented in various visual styles, drawing methods, themes, and visualized objects; even though their visual concepts practically resembles to each other.  The presented paper discusses the visual character and styles of illustrations found in the old manuscripts of Java within the year of 1800-1920. The illustration in those old Javanese manuscripts shows continuous correlation to the visual style of the past era and the present. Thus, it emboldens the characteristics of Indonesian visual states. It reflects structured illustration and visual style as well as expressive symbols of the Javanese society. Illustration of the old Javanese manuscript in the year 1800-1920 showed some changes and uniqueness in its visuals, comprising interaction between animism in the Pre-Hinduism era, cultural paradigm of Hinduism-Budhism, Islamic beliefs, and Colonialism. Having observed the visual illustration in the old Javanese manuscripts, it can be deduced that their styles are characterized as decorative, naturalistic, realistic, simple, and deformed.

Universal design is a design approach which considering that all products, building, exterior and interior spaces be usable to the greatest possible extent by all, regardless of ages and abilities. Given its importance, this approach needs to be promoted and socialized, especially for the design of public facilities (including interior and its complement) in Indonesia. BILiC (Bandung Independent Living Centre) started the assessment for the importance of universal design on public facilities with the 2007 ”Accessible Restroom” international design competition. The presented paper discusses universal design and accessibility in lieu for the evaluation of entry design works of the competition.

Abstract

This paper explores the importance of human perceptual experiences toward objects, an effort to understand how human (as users of object) experiencing pleasures when interacting with a designed object. Having the purpose to explore the theoretical structure of human and object interaction, the paper contextualizes the concept of pleasurable experience in product use by (1) understanding the conceptual traces of “pleasure in design” in the history of design thinking (e.g. modernism and post-modernism), (2) correlating the identified traces with research results from other related field (e.g. cognitive psychology) to clarify the conceptual mechanism of human pleasurable experience, and (3) synthesizing results to define the theoretical framework in assessing pleasurable experience when human interact with a designed object. Following the path of Patrick Jordan’s theory on the pleasure in human factors, the study indicates that there are four identified functions of pleasure in product use: pleasure of using, pleasure of interacting, pleasure of understanding, and pleasure of owning. Those dimensions represent the experiential aspect of arousal (on the continuum of temporal – perpetual) and interactivity (on the continuum of individual – group).

Abstract

The earthware figurines of Majapahit  were clay-based artworks from the Majapahit Kingdom (1350-1389 AD) of Trowulan at Mojokerto, East Java. The name "majapahit" itself refers to the known great kingdom that unite "nusantara" (covering Malay peninsula, Sumatra, Java, Bali, Borneo, Celebes, up North to the Southern of Phillipine). Having exposed to the varieties and high-quality of earthware figurines of Majapahit from the Trowulan site, the study looks into their symbolic shapes and meanings which was known to be heavily influenced by Hinduism. To address this issue, the study applied qualitative-descriptive method by means of visual analysis. Study on clay-objects' shapes was carried out to explore the associated meanings of 4 (four) figurine groups: (1) male figurines, (2) female figurines, (3) child figurines, and (4) deformed-face figurines. Results indicate that shapes of the object cater their symbols and associated meanings to the way religion and/or beliefs were held. Figure of gods, kings, and the nobles were made to manifest values (truth, heroism, devotion,and loyalty). Yet, although Hinduism was the most associated values to appear on the objects, Budhism were also identified.This shows that earthware figurines of Majapahit were product of acculturation where different values are met, explored, and exposed to appease the spirits (dharma) through ritual and performance.

Abstract

The word café originated from coffee, which is commonly used to describe a place where one drinks coffee, i.e. coffeehouse. Generally, this place is not too large in space providing drinks and snacks, as well as accommodates other activities for use either in the morning or late afternoon. This habit of coffee-drinking is carried out by societies in various countries around the world, including in Indonesia. This research explores cafés that embed to the local context of Bandung as case studies. This is due to the increase number of cafés in Bandung during the early 2000s which demostrate conditions that are unique and perhaps unfounded in other places of Indonesia. There are 5 (five) design variables that illustrate the diversity of cafés in Bandung: (1) Scale (café dimensions), (2) Class (low, medium, high economic-level), (3) Type (internet-café, bookstore-café, music-café, gallery-café etc), (4) Location (part of a commercial area, in one’s front yard, along the street, within a public open space), as well as (5) Time (morning, afternoon, late afternoon, evening, or more than one period of time). It is found that cafés in Bandung have developed beyond the boundaries of their origin and denotative meanings. Their existences have become part of the everyday life of the society, it serves not only as a place to chat and spend free time during late afternoons, but also as transactional-spaces that accommodate diverse activities. Referring to Barbara Kirschenblatt-Gimblett [1] this situation illustrates the phenomenon of urban vernacularism that is marked by the following characteristics: sporadic, self produced, absence of author and creator identity, as well as free from any formal pressure.

Abstract

Many have tried to explore the unified identity character of an Indonesian, arousing certain tribal cultures to visually represent "Indonesian" on apparent bestowed upon Indonesia as a nation of multi-cultures. This is clearly be seen in advertisements where the expressed visuals represent periods, societal forms, political, and economical situation according to the allotted time and space. Thus, visuals on advertisements may serve as clues to understand the significance of expressions as "Indonesian" out of the memory of how things were and were done and therefore ought to be done. This study explores visuals from the advertisements of the past to understand the spirit of Indonesia as a nation for the purpose of tomorrow. The study looked into visuals of the advertisements from the Dutch colonial era, Japanese occupation period, the birth of a nation in 1950s, the new order (1970s-1990s), and end with those of reform order (2000s); in order to portray "Indonesian" in terms of figure, behavior, and attitude of a nation. The paper discusses visuals of the past to model the present and future of an "Indonesian".

Abstract

Clothes represent cultural expressions and associate with certain social status. The Javanese societies, as complex as they are, possess unique social stratification according to the hierarchy of their positions, where the king has the tipmost status, followed by the nobles, merchants, farmers, and commoners. Thus, king clothes expresses societal status and cultural heritage of Java. This paper explores varieties of king clothes from the Surakarta and Yogyakarta kingdom on the period of 1755-2005, in order to identify the styles, associated symbolic meanings, and aesthetic values of the clothes whose patronage the Javanese people. The study focuses on the objects associate with king's clothes such as throne (kuluk/panunggul), sikepan bleggen, bordiran ageng, cinde/lancingan, blumbangan kampuh,  wedhungpasikon, belt (ukup), kepuh, and footwear (selop). Results indicate that the king clothes of Surakarta and Yogyakarta were not made to solely express symbolic meanings but also to differ identities of the throned kings. Changes on the shape of the throne (kuluk or panunggul), coat (sikepan  ageng bordiran bleggen), accesories, cinde pants (lancingan atau sarual), kampuh blumbangan with parang barong batik,  short sword (pasikon wedhung), keris, belt (ukup) a pair of clothes on the back, and footwear (selop), can be used to characterize the throned kings and thus identities of them.
