Abstract

Coronavirus Desease 2019 (Covid-19) is a disease outbreak that emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019. The emergence of Coronavirus Desease 2019 (Covid-19) caused a stir in people's lives in most parts of the world. Covid-19 is a virus that spreads quickly and easily. Crowds are one of the media for the spread of this virus, so crowds must be eliminated in order to stop its spread. Stopping the crowd has the potential to destroy the social fabric in society. Thus, good social interaction is susceptible to deterioration due to the presence of this virus. That is what attracts the author in conducting research with the title "Maintaining Social Interaction in the Covid-19 Pandemic Era". There are two problems in this research. First, to what extent are the interests of maintaining social interaction in social life.Second, how to maintain social interactions in the midst of the Covid19 pandemic era. This research is a library research using a qualitative approach in the form of a sociological study. From the research results, two conclusions can be drawn. First, as a social being, everyone cannot get away from other people. Everyone needs and everyone is needed, depending on their abilities and needs. Therefore, maintaining social interaction is an obligation. Second, the community is required to be wise in responding to the existence of Covid-19 and social interaction which are two contradictory things. People are not justified in ignoring health protocols to avoid Covid-19. On the other hand, the public is also not allowed to interpret the implementation of the health protocol according to their own wishes. The public must consult a lot with experts in their respective fields.

Abstract

This article tries to see what the acculturation of wayang and Javanese culture is and what is the influence of wayang on Javanese people's behavior. This study uses qualitative research methods described descriptively. It is expected to be able to reveal the meaning that exists from the thoughts and actions of the object of research. For the delivery to be more open and natural, it is presented with a descriptive-analytical model. There are three steps of qualitative data processing, namely data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions and verification. A puppet is a picture of human nature with all its behavior. In a moral sense, wayang is defined as a fairy tale about the story of a good character in the form of a hero fighting a bad character. Wayang is a portrait of life containing sanepa, piwulang, and pituduh. Wayang contains habits of life, and human behavior experienced from birth, life, and death, all of which are natural processes. Puppets became a medium of Islamic development by Sunan Kalijaga as a cultural da'wah that embeds Islam in the culture of society. Wayang by Sunan Kalijaga keeps it as a space for spirituality to encourage the spirit which is expected to encourage the Javanese people to be patient, trustful, and istiqomah (Consistent). Wayang is an effective da'wah (preaching) medium for the Javanese community in which it contains eastern aesthetic elements such as balance, unity, philosophy of life, ethics, and spirituality. Wayang is an emphasis on the balance of the microcosm and macrocosm, which has a balance between God, humans and other living beings, government and people, and symbols as the essence of being. Wayang is a way of life (mabda al-hayah) for the Javanese people to achieve the perfection of life seen where the view is centered on the concept of harmony. This concept is built on two main foundations: the need to avoid conflict and have an attitude of living in harmony. Both attitudes toward life must be carried out based on a respectful attitude that aims to create harmony in life. Puppets, in principle, seek to encourage the process of memayu hayuning pribadi (personal beautification), memayu hayuning keluarga (family beautification), memayu hayuning bangsa (national beautification), dan memayu hayuning bawana (global beautification).

Abstract

A piece of batik cloth contains philosophical values, symbolic meanings, traces of events, ethnic identity, social stratification, spirituality, and records of the journey of civilization. Tiga Negeri batik is evidence of cultural assimilation and acculturation in Java. Tiga Negeri is the nickname for the three places from which batik is made from the process of designing, drawing (mbatik), and onto coloring. This batik, which is closely related to Chinese culture, originated in Lasem, then during its spread to Surakarta, the motifs and color schemes became richer due to the assimilation between coastal batik and inland batik, and thus it eventually became Tiga Negeri batik from Surakarta. However, recently this unique Surakarta’s Tiga Negeri batik is losing its prestige and requires revitalization efforts to sustain its sustainability.

Abstract

The batik patterns that are known to be fractal are the reality that there are alternative perspectives that exist among Indonesian society and civilization which are unique relative to the general modern perspective. This uniqueness is important considering that fractals are a form of understanding geometry and system complexity. Pseudo-algorithm in batik is an ornamentation process: klowongan-isenharmonization which starts from the smallest fractional elements of batik motifs (fractals), has selfsimilarity and is carried out through iterative computational methods. Batik as a patterned aesthetic object has pseudo-algorithmic depiction rules that can be treated as a generative art form. Batik that can be developed as fractal batik is batik with geometric motifs. Fractals have initiated a change and presented scientific creativity and progressivity in several fields in the form of interdisciplinary. All computational patterns growth to find fractal character in batik can turn into the sources of creativity to create new motifs.Keywords: Javanese batik, ornamentation, Aesthetic, pseudo algorithm

Abstract

AbstractThe morals of life are often spoken and passed down by the ancestors in the form of songs accompanied by Javanese gamelan. It was intended to maintain the quality of the civilization of the coming regeneration. This study aims to describe the values of sublime speech values in the chants of songs sung by comedians of the ludruk arts in East Java. Using a qualitative case study type approach, the source of the data is in the form of widely published documents of the July-July hymns. Verbal data collected were analyzed descriptively-qualitatively. The results of the research show that the lines of the jula-juli hymn contain substance in various fields of life. As an example, the points of civility in the global era are presented, namely (1) nationalism, (2) heroism, (3) education, and (4) security, (5) economy, and (6) religion. From these findings it can be concluded that etiquette for life needs to be taught through oral literary arts, especially songs in jula-juli so that the dynamics of regeneration remain grounded and side with the identity of the ancestor's speech.Keywords: nation's manners, songs, jula-juli ludruk

Abstract

Batik is one of the identities of Indonesian cultural products that is well known by the world community. Research on batik never runs out to be studied. The point of view of the study can be done from various disciplines. Although in terms of motifs, it has been researched many times, and it is possible to identify that the number of batik motifs in Indonesia can reach thousands of existing motifs, from traditional motifs to modern motifs. Kenneth F. Bates (in Riyanto, et al 1997: 15) reveals that what forms a physical motif are the spot elements (in the form of strokes, colors, textures) line (lines) and mass (mass / in the form of Figures) in a single unit. Then the motif is duplicated or given variations with repetition to form a pattern or field. In contrast to Adi Kusrianto (2013: 3) states that classical batik motifs have meaning for the Javanese. Classical batik ornaments must also be able to give birth to a harmonious sense of beauty between the composition of the color scheme and the arrangement of the ornaments. Greg Richards and Julie Wilson wrote that innovation is the introduction of new inventions or spreading the meaning of these new inventions into general use in society (Richards and Wilson, 2007: 6). This study aims to develop the technique and manufacture of retak seribu motifs originating from the remekan batik technique, the consideration being to simplify the manufacturing process and enrich the development of contemporary batik motifs in Indonesia. Thus, this research will use researchbased development with the following steps: 1) information collecting, 2) develop a preliminary form of product, 3) preliminary product testing, 4) main product revision, 5) main field testing, and 6) dissemination.
