VISUAL CULTURE ON HOMOSEXUAL RESISTANCE IN SOUTHEAST ASIAN WEB SERIES
Objective: This study aims to explore the representation of diverse identities in Southeast Asian web series, with a focus on the ways in which these series depict the experiences of individuals who do not conform to traditional gender norms. The three research objectives are: to analyze the symbolic transformations observed in the depiction of Gender non-conforming relationships in Southeast Asian web series, to examine how media entrepreneurs have utilized technological advancements to create engaging and realistic productions, and to investigate how web series can influence public perceptions and understanding of social issues.
Theoretical Framework: Theory of Hyperreality from Baudrillard. In it, everything is an imitation, more precisely an imitation of an imitation and a fake thing seems more real than the real reality or reality. In a technologically dependent postmodern society, humans are confused by reality and its simulation, because of which we cannot distinguish between what is real and what is artificial that happens around us.
Method: This study used a mixed multiphase method. In the first stage, the researchers conducted a semiotic analysis followed by in-depth interviews
Results and Discussion: This research is still in the research planning proposal stage. Researchers need a long time to do this research. The stages of this research began with building this research proposal, then continued with semiotic analysis to find the visual culture of four webseries from four different countries in Southeast Asia. The next stage, researchers still need to interview 8 informants from 4 different countries from 2 different genders.
Originality/Value: This research will offer a new concept in analyzing the content of invisible web series. This research will also be a new research model that can be used to analyze the web series
KOMUNIKASI VERBAL DAN NONVERBAL DI ANTARA KAUM HOMOSEKSUAL (Studi Deskriptif Pada Pasangan Kaum Homoseksual di Jakarta)
The existence of homosexuals is now starting to develop in Jakarta. It can easily be found in various social networking media about their existence whether in terms of performing self-disclosure or even in seeking partner.

The Femme-Masculinity in The Marjan Ramadan Advertising Series
Femme-masculinity is a gender terminology to describe a woman who identifies herself between the feminine and masculine genders. This femme-masculine gender is represented in the Marjan Ramadan 2022 Ad Series Versions “Marjan, Bangkitkan Harapanâ€, “Marjan, Berbuka Penuh Harapanâ€, dan “Marjan, Rayakan Kemenanganâ€. This study aims to dismantle the representation of femme-masculinity in the Marjan Ramadan 2022 Ad Series Versions “Marjan, Bangkitkan Harapanâ€, “Marjan, Berbuka Penuh Harapanâ€, and “Marjan, Rayakan Kemenanganâ€. The theory used is Stuart Hall’s Representation Theory, using a qualitative approach and Roland Barthes’s Semiotic Analysis method, namely denotation, connotation, and myth. The results of this study found that femme-masculinity in Marjan’s advertisements is represented as an androgynous figure, an intelligent figure, a heroic figure, a warrior figure, a leader figure, and a brave figure. Marjan’s advertisements seem to represent a femme-masculine figure in their advertisements, but this is nothing more than just for profit. Thus, the representation of femme-masculinity in Marjan’s Commercial Series is only a false reality
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dissecting the Political Persona of the 2024 Indonesian Presidential Election through Visual Framing Analysis
Public interest in political battles is constant, and the Indonesian presidential election in February 2024 is no exception. The three presidential candidates, who have been declared, aggressively establish their political personas and gain exposure and notoriety using Instagram, including @aniesbaswedan, @ganjar_pranowo, and @prabowo. This study aims to dissect the political persona of the 2024 Indonesian presidential candidates using the visual framing analysis method, studying how certain points of view are emphasized or made prominent through visual messages. While other framing studies focus on textual analysis, visual framing analysis is rarely employed even though visual elements have the power to build emotional affection and can last longer in memory. The study\u27s data set comprises Instagram posts from the officially declared presidential contender (@aniesbaswedan from October 3, 2022; @ganjar_pranowo from April 21, 2023; @prabowo from August 12, 2022) to May 21, 2023. The research findings indicate that the political persona built by each presidential candidate still revolves around aspects of their own inherent identity such as religion, race, ethnicity, tribe, customs, habits, education level, economic status, social status, family background, and political stance, rather than providing a clear picture of their priority policy programs when in office
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
