Creating a good impression and positive impacts the research has helped the knowledge growth in the world of technology and its use in the learning process of students in ITS The objective of the research is to create a 3D render of Hos Tjokroaminoto’s Dormitory that was once used by the first President of Indonesia the 3D render will be turned into a virtual reality that can be accessed through an Oculus Quest The research was officially titled as “Application of Virtual Reality Heritage on Bung Karno’s Room and Hos Tjokroaminoto’s Room” The VR of Bung Karno’s old dorm could help students understand the historical context and values of the museum while also giving a personal experience of the Interior of Bung Karno’s old room The personal experience could also be translated into a term called “Digital Place Attachment” or a feeling of being present in a place that was constructed virtually The experience of being in the virtual reality of Bung Karno’s old room could help build an awareness that signifies the importance of that historical place itself Bung Karno’s old room in Hos Tjokroaminoto Museum holds a great heritage value there were 3 historical figures that lived in Hos Tjokroaminoto’s House (The Museum) and those 3 figures would eventually shape Indonesia’s history Even Though they share the same room and teacher (Hos Tjokroaminoto) Kartosoewirjo would lead the rebellion of the islamic party and Samoen would be in favour of changing the government into communism but it’s the vocal point in the history of Hos Tjokroaminoto Museum this research could also be a great source of learning in the fields of technology and the whole academic community in Interior Design ITS The process of making a VR itself takes a lot of time and procedures starting from surveying the location with the guidance of lecturers from the Lab of Interior Science and Technology ,scanning the location in 360 degrees converting the scan result to make the 3D model up to creating a research journal on Hos Tjokroaminoto Museum Making a virtual reality also requires the operation of Matterport (a tool for 3D scanning) alongside important software such as;

new and diverse responses to politics centred around the conjunction of artistic autonomy and a socially-engaged commitment to responsibility Ruangrupa’s artistic direction of Documenta 15 the five-yearly art exhibition which opened in Kassel introduces a global audience to the conscious collectivity that has been a feature of modern Indonesian art since the early twentieth century ruangrupa has developed an artistic direction that fragments and delegates creative input drawing on the resources of a community of art collectives from Indonesia and around the world In Indonesia’s creative and intellectual circles collectivity’s roots are to be found in the archipelago’s rich and diverse agrarian-subsistence cultures with links also to past Hindu-Buddhist civilisations Embedded concepts like gotong-royong (mutual cooperation) and sanggar (creative communities) were elevated by the communitarian values that underpinned the anti-colonial independence movement during the first half of the twentieth century and in Indonesia’s subsequent nation-state which has also recently been appropriated by the government to describe a controversial ‘food estate’ programme for increasing agricultural production these embedded concepts that dominated the emergence of modern and contemporary art in Indonesia have remained sites of contested interpretation They encompass an intriguing conjunction of the artistic autonomy championed by modernism in Euro-American ‘centres’ and a socially engaged realism with concomitant responsibilities to society In 1969 eminent Indonesian art critic Sanento Yuliman pointed out that even if a singular framework for the ‘Indonesian-ness’ of Indonesian painting could be determined ‘there would still be artists who would deliberately deviate from it’ ‘Is it not possible that Indonesia contains rich and unknown facets and concerns… including those that are mutually oppositional?’ In his 1970 analysis of the emergence of abstraction ‘Seni Lukis Di Indonesia: Persoalan-Persoalannya Dulu Dan Sekarang’ (Painting in Indonesia: Issues Past and Present) Yuliman went on to conceptualise a complex artistic continuity that alerts us to the ways in which modernism in Indonesia diverged from the rupturing and universalist tendencies it showed elsewhere He identified its earliest precursors in the attitudes of one of the nation’s earliest modern art collectives as Indonesia’s nationalist movement was gaining momentum known as the father of Indonesian modernism Yuliman quotes PERSAGI painter Basuki Resobowo who in 1949 argued that the difference between ‘the teapot’ and ‘the painting of the teapot’ lies in their functions: ‘The teapot on the canvas has other obligations… the line and colour that we intend to arrange harmoniously (a unity of emotion) functions to fill the field of the canvas.’ This shows that ‘the development of painting in Indonesia has prepared the ideas and sensibilities – let’s say it prepared the climate – for the development of a number of abstract paintings’ Yuliman later identified this continuity as an ongoing ‘artistic ideology’ that respects the artist as an individual; and holds the belief perpetuated through the teachings of the sanggar and institutions that ‘visual elements and their arrangement this was an ideology that extended beyond the canvas PERSAGI and the conception of sanggar both prepared the climate for the abiding importance of dual attention to collectivity and the individual in Indonesian art Sudjojono’s own charismatic personality and strong nationalist sentiment coupled with the progressive teacher-training he gained at the Taman Siswa school in Yogyakarta (inspired in part by the educational philosophiesof Rabindranath Tagore) made him a natural leader in a numberof sanggar clearly linked aesthetic beauty to social truths In the late 1930s he decried the beautified landscape-painting genre known as mooi Indië (beautiful Indies): ‘… our painters only imitate the works of these foreign painters and serve the needs of tourists… They are people who live outside our real life But fortunately a new generation is coming up… a generation with new and fresh ideas… that will dare to say “This is how we are”.’ The focus on social responsibility combined with artists’ autonomy meant that artists from the early nationalist period (the 1930s through to the 50s) were seen as interpreters of society’s needs these tendencies were institutionalised as leftist organisations gained political power following the declaration of independence in 1945 through interviews and in-depth investigation of the conditions and aspirations of the people’ Known colloquially as turba (an acronym derived from turun ke bawah – ‘go down below’) this practice inspired creative workers across all fields but it also became a millstone for those who sought less prescriptive expression Those who did not adopt the turba approach found funding and exhibition opportunities hard to come by With the rising influence of the Communist Party and the dominance of leftist organisations attracting censure at home and abroad a series of conspiratorial manoeuvres conducted between politicians and the military led to an anticommunist purge in late 1965 conducted with unspeakable and indiscriminate violence across the archipelago with its socialist aspirations but fundamentally classist approach was able to continue in the new authoritarian regime’s developmentalist politics it was co-opted into the linguistic framework of the New Order used to describe politicians’ visits to underprivileged communities for photo opportunities moved to less overt tactics; collectivity survived In 1974 a collective of art-school students boldly sent a letter mourning the death of Indonesian painting to the organisers of Indonesia’s largest selective painting exhibition (and were expelled as a result) By 1975 they were members of the GSRB (Gerakan Seni Rupa Baru whose manifesto stated that they were ‘striving for a more alive art a living reality throughout the whole spectrum of society’ PIPA was a shortlived collective of 13 artists including several members of GSRB whose confrontational exhibition 1977 in Yogyakarta was banned just two days after it opened as were many exhibitions overtly critical of the New Order regime and its cronies These three groups had in common an enthusiasm for interdisciplinarity and a focus on concept over form: installation and found objects became the language of their art In his catalogue essay for GSRB’s 1987 exhibition Pasar Raya Dunia Fantasi (Fantasy Supermarket) artist and critic Jim Supangkat reflected that what had carried over from the group’s earlier work was ‘a manifestation of exploration opposition to elitism and revitalising pluralism in fine art through practices of art in everyday life’ collectives and individuals began using social-research methodologies collaborating with other researchers and NGOs to address pressing issues The artist Moelyono’s work with rural villagers was reinterpreted through the lens of progressive Brazilian pedagogist Paulo Freire and became ‘conscientisation art’ Performance artists in Bandung conceived of events that came to be known as jeprut a radically subversive act in an atmosphere of authoritarian vigilance and flourishing student movement coalesced to bring political criticism onto the streets Indonesian president Suharto’s New Order fell One of the abiding debates that surround these kinds of practices – exemplified in critiques by art historians Claire Bishop and Grant Kester – is that of amelioration versus antagonism Should artists bandage the wounds that capitalism and neoliberalism visit on society One example is Jatiwangi Art Factory (JAF) a collective of art-workers in rural West Java and one of the organisations ruangrupa has invited to contribute to Documenta 15 JAF’s perspective is defiantly village-oriented albeit with a sophisticated and organised framework with national and international reach From 2008 they worked closely with the village-level government; one founding member was even elected village head I witnessed an attempt by local bureaucrats (invited but arriving tardy) to turn a community art event in which residents were busily sharing creative drawings envisioning the village’s future inviting officials to stay as observers only; such visits were not unusual was an interdisciplinary collective of artists activists and other civil-society representatives who gathered with the specific goal of protecting an urban forest in Bandung city from the fulfilment of an infrastructure development permit Under the guidance of their appointed chair the collective organised a creative festival and a ‘long march’ to the town hall carrying graffitied panels purloined from the developers’ zinc fence candidates in the upcoming mayoral election signed their commitment to revoke the permit – a pledge honoured by the newly elected mayor These oscillating relations with authority are strategically antagonistic and ameliorative again undermining binary interpretations of collective and individual practice in the social and political sphere the Indonesian art scene also fosters a range of collectives that give succour peer support and often shelter to artists and their work Ace House Collective – whose membership includes painter Uji ‘Hahan’ Handoko – is one example Klinik Seni Taxu (Taxu Art Clinic) collective was formed out of disillusionment with preceding collectives of Balinese artists who were seen as too self-exoticising bring artists together at specific stages of their careers and lives – in that case textile artists caring for young children – and disband or recede as needs change claiming a place for distinctive practices that is increasingly recognised at the forefront of global contemporary art practice The work taking shape in Indonesia represents an exemplar for understanding collective and socially engaged art practice a lens through which to consider the significance of movements of collectivity and their implications locally and globally: where they have come from Documenta 15 is on view in Kassel, Germany, through 25 September Yuwen JiangFeatures J.J.

It’s time for systemic change.. https://t.co/RFLvDNWrHQ — Matt Fenton (@MattContactmcr) May 14, 2020 From 2015-19 I lived and worked in Indonesia trying to help UK artists and organisations collaborate with their Indonesian equivalents When discussing UK partners we’d talk about ‘companies’ and ‘institutions’; when discussing Indonesian partners mostly we’d refer to ‘collectives’ and ‘communities’.  But the collectives were also a response to decades of corrupt authoritarian government in the latter part of the 20th century and the years of unpredictable As Farid Rakun of Jakarta-based collective Ruangrupa told me there’s no mainstream: so it gives us an opportunity to say this is how we believe stuff should be”.  Indonesia’s collectives argue they recognise everyone’s value and respect whatever resources they can bring to the table: knowledge By pooling resources and offering an equality of status they mostly feel that they’re better equipped to handle a crisis: more sustainable and better able to respond to fast-changing circumstances global pandemics or simply the whims of governments they’ve taken resource-sharing to another level The Commons Credit Cooperarativa sees six different arts collectives exchanging skills and expertise via a credits system: a collective of collectives For Jatiwangi Art Factory (JAF) the approach of Let’s Create would sound familiar Jatiwangi is a small town known mostly for its ceramic industry For decades it produced the roof tiles that were used across Indonesia and JAF’s work engages with the changing industrial and social landscape of the town JAF is “not working for the community The vibe is that of an extended family: everyone lives together UK artist George Clark has been to Indonesia twice in the last three years and has forged an ongoing relationship with JAF He was fascinated by what he saw as a horizontal structure rather than the hierarchical structure present in the UK This structure isn’t just about decision-making – although Ismal tells me that when decisions are needed they are usually made collectively – it’s about a fluid way of working: “artists need to be community organisers carpenters… and those skills are not held hierarchically” Or as Yuki Aditya of Jakarta-based collective Forum Lenteng told me “everyone’s job description is something fluid where everyone can fill any position depending on the needs of the program or of other people”.  and a contrast to the dominant competitive ethic in the UK. “Art schools (in the UK) emphasise individual expression that’s the way you are set against your peers The proliferation of competitions and awards works against ideas of working together”.  JAF see art as one part of a wider relationship with their community: they’re as likely to be found planting chilis as making videos and that helps build a relationship of trust One of JAF’s projects is a triennial event called Rampak Genteng which involves the community playing musical instruments made out of clay All the Indonesian collectives I spoke to for this article mentioned nongkrong as an important factor in their process the culture of nongkrong is central to the creative process and to the creation of organisations plans and strategies as much as works of art For most arts collectives it’s a default approach to making but it doesn’t feel like work”.  but it is about valuing creative process more than any particular ‘outcome’ And it does tend to mean that the notion of ‘authorship’ is less important than the opportunity to be creative: when ideas emerge from a large group of people no one gets to be possessive about them.  Andreas Siagian from Yogyakarta-based collective Lifepatch described the process as ngoprek one of Surabaya’s WAFT Lab collective says: “I joined because of their nongkrong approach that is our vision; we are not focused on results Indonesian arts collectives mostly achieve consensus via nongkrong “everyone from the most experienced artist to the janitor can join the majelis and propose subjects And decisions made there need to be respected by everyone.”  Regardless of the term used to describe the process Ruangrupa is not a small arts group: it is responsible for some of Jakarta’s biggest events and it will be the first collective to curate Documenta the iconic five-yearly exhibition in Kassel I talked to Matt Fenton about the Indonesian context and how it relates to his aspirations for systemic change Contact is one of the few large arts organisations in the UK that builds participatory decision-making into all its processes It is aiming for 50% of the Board to be aged 18-30 and young people are involved in all programming and staffing decisions Matt says that involvement behind the scenes translates to audience enthusiasm: “Data from Creative People and Places really backs up the data from Contact – the people who are involved in decision making and governance then become the audience They’re no longer ‘hard to reach’.”  But Contact’s approach is a rare one and it’s only a “halfway house” between a traditional theatre and a collective The theatre is just down the road from where the Rochdale Pioneers created the modern co-operative movement in the 1840s Can we imagine a viable major UK arts organisation being totally owned and run by its community?  “A lot of turkeys would have to vote for Christmas” “But our funding models are also quite risk averse And the press shore up this hierarchical model: the programme gets hung on me as ‘my vision’ I chair a conversation where lots of voices bring things to the mix and I’m a small part of that mix Even if you try and avoid the hierarchical The cultural sector’s been fetishising leadership for years: but the great challenges of our time are not about individual leaders They’re about developing a culture that springs from communities rather than being imposed on them; that allows the time to play to tinker; and that decentralises power so that artists communities and workers feel they have a genuine say Indonesia’s cultural sector is a long way from perfect its government support is haphazard at best and in many ways it is looking to learn from best practice in the UK But at a time when hierarchies are finally being challenged when the creativity of communities is finally being prioritised there’s plenty to learn from a place where arts organisations are built around a culture of gotong royong: helping each other.  Adam Pushkin was Director Arts for British Council Indonesia 2015-19 You must be logged in to post a comment More than 135,000 images were submitted to the contest from 166 countries It was the highest number of entries the awards have seen in their seven year history.  photographers must be 19 years old or younger While a few of the young photographers have crossed  the line to professional The awards are divided into three categories — environment The winners will be revealed in April at the 2014 Sony World Photography Awards Gala.  A strong magnitude 4.8 earthquake occurred in the Indian Ocean 97 km (60 mi) from  Indonesia in the morning of Saturday The depth of the quake could not be determined but is assumed to be shallow.The quake was reported felt by some people near the epicenter A strong magnitude 4.8 earthquake occurred in the Indian Ocean 107 km (66 mi) from  Indonesia in the morning of Friday but is assumed to be shallow.The quake was reported felt by some people near the epicenter.
