The object of this research is a shadow puppets performance by young puppeteers in Surakarta and its surroundings. Recently, many young puppeteers have appeared arrogantly on stage, for example: standing up and trampling puppet with their feet, throwing puppet off the stage, cursing or saying rude things, exploiting sexual objects for jokes. Whether we realize it or not, one of the causes of this phenomenon is the gap in understanding the philosophical values of puppetry. Data collection methods in this study were the observation of performances and interviews, while to understand the meaning of symbols captured in shadow puppets performances, the method of understanding meaning was used. The notion of \"understanding the meaning\" in this context is how meaning can be captured from the puppeteers' expressions, either in the form of sabet (puppets movement), catur (puppeteer vocals), and music presented. The result of this research is an attempt to find the factors that influence the tendency of the young puppeteers to express freely. Finding the factors that influence the more youthful generation tends to like glamorous entertainment alone—actualizing philosophical values in shadow puppets according to the contemporary point of view. The ability of the puppeteers to present messages through shadow puppets performances should have direct implications for his personality, in addition to being a means of mass communication that can reach all levels of society (audience) in general. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":32449,"journal":{"name":"Mudra Jurnal Seni Budaya","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87886823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper attempts to answer several questions including what is a dragon ornament, why is a dragon ornament applied to batik cloth, how is it aesthetic, and how is the relationship between Javanese and Tionghoa dragon ornaments in Indonesia. This issue is approached using interpretation perspective, both specifically in the context of batik cloth and its aesthetics, as well as in a broader context of Javanese and Tionghoa cultures. The interesting findings show that dragon ornaments on classical batik cloth in the form of Javanese dragons and Chinese dragons have their respective characteristics. Dragon ornament is applied to batik cloth due to its visual beauty and meaning as a protector and symbol of power that is identical to the king or emperor. The two Javanese and Chinese dragon ornaments not only adorn batik cloth, but are also applied for the benefit of architecture and other art works. Specific findings indicate that Chinese dragon ornaments are more developed than Javanese dragon ornaments, especially for contemporary batik fashion. Another finding is that the Parang motif combined with the Chinese dragon looks aèng or strange but is favoured by the public. This article suggests that batik producers develop Javanese dragon motifs for contemporary batik (preservation with new functions). For researchers, in studying dragon ornaments, the use of Western and Eastern aesthetic approaches will complement each other and result in more comprehensive findings. Another phenomenon that is intriguing for future research is the presence of batik producers and online shops that offer batik products with a variety of motifs and patterns. It is an interesting phenomenon to be studied in terms of design and marketing.","PeriodicalId":32449,"journal":{"name":"Mudra Jurnal Seni Budaya","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74977702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Every region in Indonesia has its own Songket weaving, depending on the region’s characteristics. Bali island is one well-known region in Indonesia for Songket weaving. In the past, Songket weaving in Bali was only made for caste members and the royal family. At that time, only people in the royal family were able to make Songket weaving. The songket weaving process in Bali was mainly performed using a weaving tool called cagcag. The songket weaving pattern (motif) was made using a sungkit technique—interlace between threads to create a motif. The making of the songket motif begins with arranging the thread according to the desired motif before the weaving process. Information about the motif was spread in Guun. In general, songket weaving in Bali island has tens to hundreds of Guun. The skills to break the desired motif into the Guun is quite a complicated process. Therefore, not many weavers master the process of making songket motifs. Most of the motif makers continue or imitate existing motifs. Currently, a motif maker who can make a motif from scratch is rare. In order to help break motifs into Guun, an in-depth understanding of the calculation of making songket motifs is required. Then, this understanding is transformed into an application that can help motif makers to visualize motifs into Guum. The design application will provide multiple benefits for the motif makers and serve as an effort of culture preservation by introducing a design application to make songket motifs for younger generations. Therefore, they are expected to contribute to making songket weaving motifs.","PeriodicalId":32449,"journal":{"name":"Mudra Jurnal Seni Budaya","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84304062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Krisis kesehatan, ekonomi, sosial, politik dan budaya menimbulkan efek domino, yang berujung pada krisis kemanusiaan. Sejak merebak di Wuhan, Provinsi Hubei, Cina sekitar akhir tahun 2019, virus tersebut masih berdampak radikal hingga saat ini. Globalisasi yang dahulu menyoal kecepatan, kemajuan, perayaan, keintiman, dan rasa kebersamaan, sekarang berbalik menjadi kelambatan, kemunduran, serta jarak fisik dan sosial. Negara dan aparatnya segera mengambil tindakan dengan mengeluarkan sejumlah peraturan, seperti kuncitara, isolasi diri, dan “tata krama” baru dalam bekerja dan bersosialisasi, dua diantaranya adalah cuci tangan dan memakai masker. Sejumlah komunitas mengalami stagnasi dalam kehidupan sosial, ekonomi, politik, budaya dan seni, termasuk menghadapi kemungkinan krisis bahan pangan karena menurunnya daya beli. Situasi ini menuntut inisiatif dan peran anggota komunitas, seperti para seniman, untuk turun tangan. Para seniman berkontribusi dalam memenuhi “kebutuhan dasar” komunitas dengan menyediakan masker dan makanan untuk keluarga berpenghasilan rendah serta Alat Pelindung Diri (APD) untuk tenaga medis, seperti perawat dan dokter. Selain itu, sejumlah proyek juga digagas seniman sebagai aksi filantropi kemanusiaan, antara lain “Dapur Aksi Berbagi”, “Dapur Aksi Tetandur”, “Rengeng-rengeng Sirep Pageblug Maskumambang” yang diselenggarakan LAURA, “Pentas Wayang Climen: Kolaborasi Dalang dengan Pelukis”, “Seni Nasi Bungkus”, “Konser Online Didi Kempot”, dan “Panen Apa Hari Ini”. Proyek-proyek tersebut dianggap sebagai filantropi kemanusiaan, yang dari perspektif seni rupa kontemporer, dikategorikan sebagai praktik seni. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif. Peneliti mengamati dan mencatat dengan cermat berbagai tindakan filantropi para seniman, dan kemudian mengelaborasi peristiwa yang terjadi. Risalah ini menjawab mengapa aktivitas mereka bisa dikategorikan sebagai praktik seni. Risalah ini juga membuka potensi wacana terkait hubungan antara filantropi kemanusiaan yang dilakukan oleh seniman dengan praktik seni.","PeriodicalId":32449,"journal":{"name":"Mudra Jurnal Seni Budaya","volume":"101 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80868324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
