Bulgarian Journal of Agricultural Science, 25(1), 215–221 Growing periods can be determined using water balance analysis to decrease harvest risk in certain area. Generally, there are two types of land use for crop, i.e. irrigated land and non-irrigated land. This research was aimed to determine water input, water use and water loss, consumptive use crop water balance and designing a cropping pattern on rainfed paddy fi eld at Wa- tershed Tenggarong. Determination of fi eld capacity and permanent wilting point using soil texture data was input through Bouyoucos hydrom- eter methods. The calculation of land water balance according to Thornthwaite and Mather (1957) was employed to determine the agro-climate condition, particularly the dynamics of soil moisture content to plan a general cropping patterns was used based on monthly data. The planting time period is the water holding capacity > 50% from available water. Water balance monthly indicated that this area has potential growing season about 9 months, water surplus 8 months (439.6 mm year-1) and water defi cits about 3 months (59.7 mm year-1).

    Negotiating Visuals: Roles of Images in a Site-specific Performance Muhizam Mustafa* and Roslan Chin School of the Arts, Universiti Sains Malaysia, MALAYSIA *Corresponding author: [email protected] Published online: 25 January 2019 To cite this article: Muhizam Mustafa and Roslan Chin. 2019. Negotiating visuals: Roles of images in a site-specific performance. Wacana Seni Journal of Arts Discourse 18(Supp. 1): 47–52. https://doi.org/10.21315/ws2019.18.Supp.1.7. To link to this article: https://doi.org/10.21315/ws2019.18.Supp.1.7 ABSTRACT Wilkie (2004) in her research "Out of Place" discussed that theatre has a long history of experimenting with a variety of spatial configurations and visual relationships. However, it is only in the last two decades that the label "site-specific" has been applied to theatrical performance, indicating a new mode of place-bound practice. This paper looks at the association between a performative engagement with place and space and the role of visuals and scenography; an enhancement of a site-specific spatial formatted performance. The study also looks at the function of images as one area of the theatrical's "visual systems" that affects the creation and reception of a play. "Bermulanya Di Sini…Kedah Tua" is a contemporary theatrical research project based upon the archaeological findings in Lembah Bujang. The performance combines three different fields of study: performance, archaeology, and history. This research combines the idea of theory and practice to decode literary and historical sources by triangulating the relationship between archaeological artefacts, architectural space and time. Keywords: visual projection, scenography, site-specific, performance, archaeology INTRODUCTION The intersection between performative elements and theatrical exploration of space is a continuous process of negotiation.

  • KONDISI SOSIAL EKONOMI MASYARAKAT TATAR SUNDA Dari Masa Tarumanagara S.D
    KONDISI SOSIAL EKONOMI MASYARAKAT TATAR SUNDA dari Masa Tarumanagara s.d. Masa Kolonial Belanda MAKALAH Disampaikan dalam Kursus Sejarah Sunda diselenggarakan oleh Pusat Penelitian Kemasyarakatan dan Kebudayaan Universitas Padjadjaran Bekerja Sama dengan Majalah Mangle tanggal 19 Februari s.d. 24 Maret 2007 Oleh: Mumuh Muhsin Z. JURUSAN SEJARAH FAKULTAS SASTRA UNIVERSITAS PADJADJARAN JATINANGOR 2007 0 KONDISI SOSIAL EKONOMI MASYARAKAT TATAR SUNDA dari Masa Tarumanagara s.d. Masa Kolonial Belanda oleh Mumuh Muhsin Z.1 Abstrak Wilayah Tatar Sunda memiliki potensi ekonomi yang sangat tinggi. Hal ini berkait dengan faktor geografis. Tanah Sunda merupakan tanah yang sangat subur dan bisa ditanami oleh beragam jenis tanaman ekspor yang sangat laku di pasar Eropa, seperti kopi, teh, kina, karet, dan sebagainya. Di samping itu, wilayah Sunda pun cukup strategis karena memiliki banyak pelabuhan yang bisa dijadikan akses ke luar masuk kapal dan untuk didatang orang luar. Karena potensi ekonomi inilah wilayah Tatar Sunda menjadi target penguasaan bangsa-bangsa asing. I. Pendahuluan Penganut paham economic determinism memandang bahwa ekonomi atau materi merupakan faktor penentu gerak sejarah. Bagi orang seperti itu, mengkaji sejarah ekonomi menjadi teramat penting. Akan tetapi sayangnya, sejarah hampir tidak pernah meninggalkan jejak secara lengkap, lebih-lebih untuk periode yang jaraknya dengan kehidupan kita sangat jauh. Padahal keingintahuan kita terhadap masa lampau sering tidak terbendung. Mengungkap sejarah ekonomi masyarakat Sunda pada periode Kerajaan Tarumanagara yang eksis pada abad ke-5 amat sulit karena teramat sedikitnya sumber. Begitu juga pada periode kerajaan Sunda. Problemnya sama adalah kurangnya sumber. Padahal sejarah ekonomi hampir identik dengan sejarah kuantitatif, menuntut banyak data angka; dan itu hampir mustahil diperoleh.

  • 1 Orang Asli and Melayu Relations
    1 Orang Asli and Melayu Relations: A Cross-Border Perspective (paper presented to the Second International Symposium of Jurnal Antropologi Indonesia, Padang, July 18-21, 2001) By Leonard Y. Andaya In present-day Malaysia the dominant ethnicity is the Melayu (Malay), followed numerically by the Chinese and the Indians. A very small percentage comprises a group of separate ethnicities that have been clustered together by a Malaysian government statute of 1960 under the generalized name of Orang Asli (the Original People). Among the “Orang Asli” themselves, however, they apply names usually associated with their specific area or by the generalized name meaning “human being”. In the literature the Orang Asli are divided into three groups: The Semang or Negrito, the Senoi, and the Orang Asli Melayu.1 Among the “Orang Asli”, however, the major distinction is between themselves and the outside world, and they would very likely second the sentiments of the Orang Asli and Orang Laut (Sea People) in Johor who regard themselves as “leaves of the same tree”.2 Today the Semang live in the coastal foothills and inland river valleys of Perak, interior Pahang, and Ulu (upriver) Kelantan, and rarely occupy lands above 1000 meters in elevation. But in the early twentieth century, Schebesta commented that the areas regarded as Negrito country included lands from Chaiya and Ulu Patani (Singora and Patthalung) to Kedah and to mid-Perak and northern Pahang.3 Most now live on the fringes rather than in the deep jungle itself, and maintain links with Malay farmers and Chinese shopkeepers. In the past they appear to have also frequented the coasts.

  • Cultivation System” and Indonesia’S Palm Oil Plantation System in Comparative Analysis*
    Asian International Studies Review Vol. 17 No.2 (December 2016): 55-77 55 Received September 30, 2016 Revised November 25, 2016 Accepted December 5, 2016 Enabling Conditions for Structures of Domination: Java’s Colonial Era “Cultivation System” and Indonesia’s Palm Oil Plantation System in Comparative Analysis* MARK STEVENSON CURRY** Historians of colonial-era Java have produced considerable debate about how the Dutch colonial era Cultivation System (1830-1870) brought prosperity to the Netherlands in contrast with the fortunes of Javanese societies under the imposition of mandatory production quotas. Separately, palm oil plantation agriculture in contemporary Indonesia, since the mid-1990s, has sparked a different debate on the state’s power to direct development over biodiversity and the rights and existence of Indigenous People. In comparative-historical analy- sis, the structures of domination in each era provide useful symme- tries: the speed of implementation; the realization of extraordinary profits; the adverse incorporation of local communities; and environ- mental impacts. However, the enabling conditions that underpinned and sustained both the colonial era Cultivation System and the con- temporary palm oil boom remain to be explored and applied to the paired agencies of investment capital and the developmental state. From historical accounts, four enabling conditions emerge: a cataly- zing crisis; close control over information flows; maintaining an official monopoly over order and violence; and an official discourse intolerant
