Abstract
Kaliabu and Salaman, When the Internet Touches You: The Story of Indonesia’s Village Designers Kaliabu is a remote village in the district of Salaman, far from the center of the developing Indonesian economy, that has been making appearances in Indonesian media. The region has hundreds of graphic designers who work online to create logos, picked up through design contests organized by the online design agency 99designs. While there is no doubt that learning design skills can be one way to improve socio-economic conditions in remote communities, there are many questions about the way this platform is changing the nature of the design industry. Kaliabu, sebuah desa terpencil di Kecamatan Salaman menjadi terkenal dengan sebutan Kampung setelah diliput media. Disebut demikian, karena wilayah ini memiliki ratusan desainer grafis yang bekerja secara online untuk membuat desain logo melalui kontes-kontes desain yang diselenggarakan oleh 99Designs. Hal serupa juga terjadi di Kota Kecamatan Salaman. Namun, setelah usai liputan media, tidak semua desainer melihat cara ini sebagai satu-satunya jalan untuk memperbaiki hidup. Namun tidak dipungkiri bahwa desain menjadi salah satu cara yang dapat memperbaiki sosial ekonomi masyarakat terpencil yang jauh dari pusat perekonomian Indonesia.
期刊介绍:
PORTAL Journal of Multidisciplinary International Studies is a fully peer reviewed journal with two main issues per year, and is published by UTSePress. In some years there may be additional special focus issues. The journal is dedicated to publishing scholarship by practitioners of—and dissenters from—international, regional, area, migration, and ethnic studies. Portal also provides a space for cultural producers interested in the internationalization of cultures. Portal is conceived as a “multidisciplinary venture,” to use Michel Chaouli’s words. That is, Portal signifies “a place where researchers [and cultural producers] are exposed to different ways of posing questions and proffering answers, without creating out of their differing disciplinary languages a common theoretical or methodological pidgin” (2003, p. 57). Our hope is that scholars working in the humanities, social sciences, and potentially other disciplinary areas, will encounter in Portal scenarios about contemporary societies and cultures and their material and imaginative relation to processes of transnationalization, polyculturation, transmigration, globalization, and anti-globalization.
