Artificial Intelligence Antara Ancaman, Tantangan, Dan Peluang Bagi Seniman dan Desainer Generasi Z Serta Gen Alpha Sebuah Tinjuan Etik dan Peradaban Baru

2026-07-15T14:27:08+07:00

ABSTRACT
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has fundamentally transformed the landscape of visual creativity in the digital era. This study aims to analyze the threats, challenges, and opportunities of AI for Generation Z (born 1997–2012) and Gen Alpha (2013–present) artists and designers through an ethical lens and new civilization perspective. Employing a qualitative literature review approach grounded in Jean Baudrillard’s simulacra theory, Yuval Noah Harari’s alien intelligence concept, Marshall McLuhan’s medium theory, and maqasid al-shariah principles in Islamic ethics, the study reveals that AI poses real threats including job displacement, authenticity crisis (precession of simulacra), and creative outsourcing among youth. Nevertheless, AI offers opportunities for democratization and human augmentation when managed ethically. Islamic perspective emphasizes conditional permissibility with emphasis on accountability (mas’uliyyah), justice (‘adl), human dignity (karamah al-insan), and trust (amana). Empirical case studies from Indonesian practitioners (Gen Z designer in Jakarta, digital batik artist in Yogyakarta, and 2025 DKV student survey) strengthen the theoretical findings. Key implications include the need for design education reform, adaptive copyright regulation, and development of human-AI symbiosis models that preserve human dignity. The findings contribute theoretically to visual communication design studies and technology ethics in Indonesia.

Perancangan Sistem Signage Edukatif untuk Meningkatkan Navigasi dan Kenyamanan Lingkungan di SDN Jatirangga II

2026-08-05T15:25:01+07:00

SDN Jatirangga II is a public elementary school with adequate facilities; however, its existing signage system remains unstructured and inconsistent, limiting effective navigation and information delivery within the school environment. This condition particularly affects elementary students, who require clear, simple, and easily understandable visual information. Therefore, this study aims to design an educational signage system that improves navigation and environmental comfort within the school. This research employs a user-centered design thinking approach consisting of four stages: analysis, concept development, design, and evaluation. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation to identify user needs, especially those of students aged 6–12 years. The analysis results served as the basis for developing a child-friendly, communicative, and visually consistent signage concept.The outcome of this study is an integrated signage system incorporating visual elements such as color, typography, and pictograms tailored to user characteristics. The proposed design enhances information readability, facilitates navigation, and creates a more organized and comfortable school environment. Additionally, the signage system functions as a visual identity that reflects the school’s child-friendly and educational character. In conclusion, the designed educational signage system provides an effective solution for improving the quality of the school environment and can serve as a reference for signage development in other educational institutions.

Perancangan Sistem Signage Islami untuk Meningkatkan Navigasi dan Kenyamanan Jamaah di Masjid Jami’ Nurul Huda Kabupaten Bekasi

This study aims to design an Islamic signage system to improve navigation and user comfort at Masjid Jami’ Nurul Huda, Bekasi Regency. The research is motivated by the lack of effective signage within the mosque environment, including poor readability, inconsistent design, and the absence of an integrated wayfinding system, which often leads to confusion among worshippers in locating key facilities such as prayer areas and ablution spaces. This research applies a user-centered design approach using the design thinking method, which consists of four stages: analysis, concept development, design, and evaluation. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation to identify user needs and existing problems. The design process incorporates Islamic visual elements, appropriate typography, color contrast, and clear symbols to ensure readability and accessibility. The results indicate that a well-designed signage system significantly improves spatial orientation, reduces user confusion, and enhances overall comfort within the mosque environment. Furthermore, integrating Islamic values into the visual design strengthens the identity of the mosque while maintaining a harmonious and conducive atmosphere for worship. In conclusion, the proposed Islamic signage system serves as an effective solution for improving navigation and user experience in mosque environments and can be applied as a reference for similar religious public spaces.

Analisis Desain Bola Sepak Pada Ajang Pekan Olahraga Nasional (Pon) Periode 2021-2024 (Aspek Estetika Visual Dan Identitas Budaya Indonesia)

2026-08-02T13:36:26+07:00

Football design as part of a visual communication medium not only functions as a match equipment, but also has the potential to represent the cultural identity of the region hosting a sports event. This study aims to analyze the visual aesthetics and representation of cultural identity in the official ball design of the XX Papua National Sports Week (PON) in 2021 and PON XXI Aceh-North Sumatra in 2024. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with visual and semiotic analysis methods. Data were obtained through observation of research objects, documentation, and literature studies which were analyzed based on visual elements in the form of panel shapes, colors, graphic patterns, typography, logos, and visual composition. The results of the study show that both ball designs have applied the principles of visual aesthetics, namely unity, balance, harmony, proportion, rhythm, and emphasis, resulting in a visually appealing design and fulfilling the technical function as a match ball. Based on semiotic analysis, the visual elements on both spheres form a system of marks that represent the character of modern sports products. However, in the objects analyzed, the representation of the cultural identity of the host region has not been explicitly displayed through the use of traditional motifs, cultural symbols, and visual elements typical of Papua, Aceh, and North Sumatra. This study concludes that the design of the official PON ball has met the visual aesthetic aspects and technical functions, but still has the opportunity to strengthen the representation of cultural identity through the integration of local cultural elements in the design process so that the football not only functions as a sports equipment, but also as a visual communication medium that is able to introduce and preserve Indonesian cultural identity.
