As a kind of traditional handicraft with strong practicability, even though it has the new identity of Intangible Cultural Heritage, Anshun batik, like other handicrafts, is also subject to the great impact of social changes and is facing the crisis of inheritance and development. Under the tide of Intangible Cultural Heritage protection, how to enhance the survivability of Anshun batik so that it can be integrated into contemporary life and better inherited and developed is the issue that this research attempts to explore.

Moving From Vernacular Culture to Urban Culture: Evolution of Batik Culture in Indonesia

Batik has initially been a practice among the ordinary people, having been introduced to Jakarta during the Dutch rule. It has evolved from a vernacular product to a symbol of urban culture and national identity, pursuant to independence of Indonesia. It has acquired an association with the political and cultural activities linked to Jakarta's role as the national government center and has reached a position of national signficance. This study examines the significant elements and the effects of batik in the development of the urban culture of Indonesia. It employed interviews as primary data sources to gather information from batik owners and craftsmen, museums, collectors, institutions, and decision-makers regarding local culture and its contemporary significance. Secondary data was compiled from reference sources using an interdisciplinary historical approach in order to reconstruct the historical development of Batik in Indonesia. It is concluded that the roots of the batik tradition in Jakarta have arisen from the immigrant vernacular communities. Numerous political, economic and cultural events have produced the setting for its growth to form the current urban cultural identity having become a fashionable cloth of national significance even symbolizing the national identity of Indonesia.

Protection of Guizhou Miao batik culture based on knowledge graph and deep learning

In the globalization trend, China’s cultural heritage is in danger of gradually disappearing. The protection and inheritance of these precious cultural resources has become a critical task. This paper focuses on the Miao batik culture in Guizhou Province, China, and explores the application of knowledge graphs, natural language processing, and deep learning techniques in the promotion and protection of batik culture. We propose a dual-channel mechanism that integrates semantic and visual information, aiming to connect batik pattern features with cultural connotations. First, we use natural language processing techniques to automatically extract batik-related entities and relationships from the literature, and construct and visualize a structured batik pattern knowledge graph. Based on this knowledge graph, users can textually search and understand the images, meanings, taboos, and other cultural information of specific patterns. Second, for the batik pattern classification, we propose an improved ResNet34 model. By embedding average pooling and convolutional operations into the residual blocks and introducing long-range residual connections, the classification performance is enhanced. By inputting pattern images into this model, their categories can be accurately identified, and then the underlying cultural connotations can be understood. Experimental results show that our model outperforms other mainstream models in evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score, achieving 94.46%, 94.47%, 93.62%, and 93.8%, respectively. This research provides new ideas for the digital protection of batik culture and demonstrates the great potential of artificial intelligence technology in cultural heritage protection.

Particle Batik: Digitalize Traditional Batik through the Particle-driven System

Abstract With the deepening of cultural digitization in recent years, researchers have begun to explore the use of digitization to promote the innovation of traditional culture, trying to seek new paths for the promotion and revitalization of conventional culture under new visions, new disciplines, and new technologies. Based on the development history and current situation of Batik in Malaysia and Indonesia, this paper takes Malaysian Batik works as an example. It develops a Batik particle engine-generated painting system-”Particle Batik.” This system is innovative because it ensures that every particle is accurately set up according to the color samples and position of the Batik works during the creation process. When the search engine loads the next Batik artwork, all the particles will be resampled and generated according to the newly loaded artwork, and the trajectories of the particles and their resulting line traces will be continuously superimposed and fused on the canvas, thus forming a dynamic generative artwork evolving. The Particle Batik system enhances the multidimensional expressiveness of Batik, significantly contributing to the global dissemination and cultural value of Batik art. The system successfully integrates traditional handicrafts and modern digital technology and facilitates the mutual exchange and symbiotic development between traditional culture and modern art forms. Promoting the integration and exchange of Batik culture globally allows it to adapt and integrate more closely with contemporary society and culture.

IMPLEMENTASI MOTIF BATIK GEDOG PADA HUMIDIFIER DAN DIFFUSER 2IN1

In the world of interior design, some traditional art results such as typical Indonesian batik motifs are very rarely applied to interior design elements. Even though this batik motif will be very interesting if applied to contemporary interior accessories such as humidifiers and diffusers. The way humidifiers and diffusers work is different. Humidifiers work by removing moisture to increase the humidity content of the air. While the diffuser emits steam into the air from the essential oils that are put into it. This 2in1 humidifier and diffuser is named HUDIGO (Humidifier, Diffuser, Gedog) The naming comes from the application of batik gedog on several sides of the humidifier and 2in1 diffuser. Gedog Batik originated from Tuban, East Java. The character contained in the Gedog batik motif Kijing Miring is a character of tolerance. In this motif, there are Islamic religious teachings that are adjacent to the culture of the surrounding community, namely the Gedog batik culture which comes from Javanese culture. The two cultures can coexist without losing the original culture. This application aims to apply semiotic elements to modern interior accessories. In addition, to maintain the existence of batik. Semiotic analysis uses a qualitative approach. This is because the basic assumption of semiotics is the study of signs, where in interpreting it everyone will be different. Each object has a subjective meaning, including the subject who interprets the object.
