Dear the 3rd Communication Research Conference participants

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change FOREWORD

Dear the 3rd Communication Research Conference participants. The turn of the second decade of the 21st Century has witness of major political and social changes. Politically many regimes, thought as invincible before, suddenly beckoned down to the pressure of people’s power. In some cases it was with huge price to pay. Socially, we also see that almost no society today that has not been touch by changes. In fact, changes is the only constant in a society’s history. Within those changes, we bear witness that much of the changes were motored by young generations just like the previous generations brought changes to their predecessors. Therefore, we believe that it is only fitting that we took those events as the main thought in selecting in this year’s conference topic: Youth, Media and Social Change. Since the the very first conference, we at STIKOM LSPR believes that this conference should refer as a community forum. A forum where all walks of life that concerned with Communication studies should sit down together and talk. Through talks we can create understanding, and most importantly: knowledge. Therefore it is the very best hope that for we will gain the best knowledge and sharing through this conference. Thank you for participating. We are looking forward to see you again next year.

Jakarta, April 27th, 2012.

Ari S. Widodo Poespodihardjo Ph.D Conference Chairman.

Twitter hadir disaat para remaja sedang aktif dalam menggunakan media sosial seperti Facebook dan Blog. Karenanya, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan bagaimana keterbukaan remaja (khususnya remaja akhir 18-21 tahun) yang terjadi di microblog Twitter melalui akun pribadi mereka dan menjelaskan apa yang membuat remaja menjadi lebih terbuka mengenai dirinya sendiri terhadap umum dengan menggunakan metodologi kualitatif deskriptif. Berdasarkan analisis data, ditemukan bahwa hal-hal yang biasa dituliskan atau dibuka oleh remaja di akun Twitter pribadi diantaranya adalah aspek sehari-hari, hubungan percintaan, hubungan persahabatan dan pandangan terhadap lingkungan sekitar. Hal yang mendorong remaja menjadi lebih terbuka mengenai dirinya sendiri di Twitter biasanya pada saat keadaan dimana seseorang tidak tahu harus berbuat apa, karena perasaan tertentu, kepuasan yang didapat, tanggapan pribadi terhadap Twitter yang berpengaruh kepada cara penggunaannya dan penyesuaian karakter diri, serta menunjukkan karakter diri. Beberapa hal baru yang ditemukan dalam penelitian ini adalah bahwa dengan seringnya seseorang memposting mengenai dirinya dan lingkungan sekitarnya yang berhubungan dengan dirinya, pada akhirnya dia sendiri dan bahkan orang lain bisa mengetahui lebih banyak tentang siapa seseorang itu, seperti apa dan lain-lain. Selain itu keterbukaan diri remaja saat ini sudah berbeda dengan beberapa konsep keterbukaan diri yang ada, karena bisa saja seseorang sedemikian terbuka bahkan dengan orang yang tidak dikenalnya.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 13 Holiganisme 2.0 : Anak Muda dan Perubahan Sosial dalam Konflik Suporter Sepak bola melalui Media Sosial Internet

Fajar Junaedi Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta

Holiganisme supporter sepak bola adalah persoalan pelik dalam ranah olah raga paling popular di dunia ini. Holiganisme awalnya merujuk pada aksi yang mengarah pada kekerasan yang dilakukan oleh suporter sepak bola di Eropa, terutama di Inggris. Kekerasan yang dilakukan oleh suporter Liverpool terhadap suporter Juventus dalam Piala Champion tahun 1985 yang menyebabkan puluhan suporter Juventus kehilangan nyawa menjadi salah satu tragedi terkelam dalam holiganisme dalam sepak bola. Pasca tragedy yang memilukan ini, holiganisme diperangi secara massif dan represif oleh aparat keamanan di Eropa. Federasi sepak bola baik di tingkat nasional maupun di tingkat nasional juga berusaha secara keras untuk menekan holiganisme. Namun, usaha keras dari aparat Negara dan federasi sepak bola belum mampu mematikan gejolak holiganisme. Di berbagai negara holiganisme bermanifestasi dalam berbagai bentuk yang selalu ditandai dengan kekerasan baik di dalam maupun di luar stadion. Holiganisme umumnya identik dengan anak muda. Di Eropa, anak muda menjadi motor utama dari holiganisme yang masih tumbuh subur walau ditekan secara massif dan represif. Dengan berbagai cara, anak muda suporter sepak bola yang mengidentifikasi dirinya sebagai holigan, berusaha menumbuhkembangkan holiganisme sebagai ideologi dan cara pandang mereka dalam menikmati sepak bola. Media sosial internet berbasis teknologi web 2.0 menjadi media alternatif untuk menyebarluaskan holiganisme. Ancaman pembunuhan terhadap pemain di Liga Inggris serta rasisme terhadap pemain non kulit putih yang dilancarkan melalui media sosial menjadi bukti tentang kiprah media sosial dalam holiganisme. Apa yang terjadi di Eropa juga terjadi di Indonesia. Kelompok suporter sepak bola yang bertikai menjadikan media sosial sebagai media untuk mengawali, menyuburkan dan memelihara konflik dengan suporter lawan. Dengan media sosial, kelompok suporter yang juga didominasi anak muda menyuarakan provokasinya terhadap suporter lain yang dianggap sebagai lawan. Stereotype dan prasangka budaya menjadi fenomena yang tumbuh subur dalam media sosial dari konflik suporter sepak bola. Dua hal ini jika dibiarkan berlarut-larut tentu dapat memicu konflik yang lebih luas, bukan hanya konflik di dunia maya. Media sosial telah membawa perubahan sosial dalam konflik suporter sepak bola, dimana konflik semakin melebar bukan hanya di dalam maupun di luar stadion, namun juga di media sosial.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 14 Media, Student, and Identity: Structuration Study On The PostReformation Era Student Movement Adde Oriza Rio Christian University of Indonesia The objective of this research is to study the relation of media and identity in the context of post reformation era student movement. Giddens structuration theory is used to understand how student activists construct their identity and how media take part in that process. Research strategy used in this research is critical ethnography while the subject is National Student League for Democracy (Liga Mahasiswa Nasional untuk Demokrasi-LMND). The result (ideographic) shows that the identity of student movement that emerged is as victims of neoliberalism but also think of themselves as leftist young intellectuals that have the duty to fight neoliberalism through political struggles as political parties. This political identity arises because of an historical condition in which the democratization is takes place on one side but impoverishment is also taking places on the other side. Giddens explain that the structure is ‘rules’ which is restraining on one side but also, at the same time, is ‘resources’ which is enabling on the other side. Thus, in other words, as ‘rules’ the political economic structure of Indonesia is restrained the student movement and the peoples economically. But, on the other side, as ’resources’ enabling them politically so they are able to establish their own political parties. The media created the system integration and became the source of materials which student use in their reflexivity in the resistance process.

Surveys show that this generation (sometimes also called the “NetGeneration, “the Net-Gen,” ”the Digital Generation,” or the “Millennials”) socializes more online, downloads more entertainment media, and consults the Web for a wider range of purposes than do present adults or young people of the previous generation. As a result, members of the younger generation are often more Internet savvy than their teachers, parents, grandparents, and even older siblings (Herring, 2008). Today, because of the vast array of media available, young people make more choices about what they will attend to based on their backgrounds, interests, peer influences, and a number of other factors. So much information can be accessed by them. Thus, it is important for young people to be able to filter information according to their needs. By the case in an alternative school Qaryah Tayyibah Salatiga, new media uses can be approached with Jenkin’s (2006) laissez faire approach, a set of core social skills and a cultural competencies in order to students should acquire if they are to be full, active, creative, and ethical participants in emerging participatory culture.

The Javanese wayang orang groups perform Javanese traditional theatre with stories taken from old Indian books: Ramayana and Mahabharata. The art is popular for its representation of Javanese values, norms and traditions, especially for the Javanese speaking people in Central and East Java. From its heyday in 1930’s, the popularity of wayang orang slowly decreased, especially when it must compete with modern entertainment like modern music, movies, and television. Currently there are only a few wayang orang groups that still survive. Bharata is one of the few survival wayang orang groups, and the group is special because unlike other groups that mainly based in Central or East Java, Bharata is based in Jakarta. The capital of Indonesia is far from Centres of Javanese culture like Yogyakarta, Surakarta, Semarang or Surabaya, but it is the political and economic centre of the country, situating the group in a very strategic position in the centralized social and cultural changes. When Bharata formed another group called Tunas Bharata that mainly consists of teenagers, those who grew up with modern technologies and popular culture, there are questions on the meaning of tradition and its relation to modern media. The paper will elaborate the process, reasons and consequences of the youth group establishment. At the end, the paper discusses one of the most important questions in our contemporary-multi-mediated life: in the time of electronic media, what do we need from tradition?

P. 18

Makalah ini membahas Tunas Bharata, kelompok muda dari kelompok wayang orang Bharata. Pementasan wayang orang Jawa adalah bentuk teater tradisional yang mengangkat cerita-cerita yang diambil dari buku-buku India kuno: Ramayana dan Mahabharata. Seni ini populer karena merepresentasikan norma-norma, nilai-nilai dan tradisi Jawa, terutama bagi orang-orang berbicara bahasa Jawa di Jawa Tengah dan Jawa Timur. Sejak masa kejayaannya di tahun 1930-an, popularitas wayang orang perlahan menurun, terutama ketika harus bersaing dengan hiburan modern seperti musik hidup, film, dan televisi. Saat ini hanya ada beberapa kelompok wayang orang yang masih bertahan. Bharata adalah salah satu dari beberapa kelompok yang masih hidup, dan kelompok ini spesial karena tidak berbasis di Tengah atau Jawa Timur, namun di Jakarta. Ibukota Indonesia ini cukup jauh dari pusat kebudayaan Jawa seperti Yogyakarta, Surakarta, Semarang atau Surabaya, tetapi merupakan pusat politik dan ekonomi negara, menempatkan kelompok ini dalam posisi yang sangat strategis dalam perubahan sosial dan budaya Indonesia yang terpusat. Ketika Bharata membentuk kelompok lain disebut Tunas Bharata yang anggotanya terdiri dari remaja, mereka yang dibesarkan dengan teknologi modern dan budaya populer, ada pertanyaan tentang makna tradisi dan hubungannya dengan media modern.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 20 Profiling Environmental Communication Through Text Presented in Media Anna Agustina, M.Si Universitas Pancasila

Environment as human main support in life, need to be taken care in support of its sustainability for our next generation. Many aspect of environment already been in study for years by the environmental science as we all see, aware, and familiar with the program such as conservation. Communication as a science has a positive contribution too in supporting environment sustainability in many ways. One of those, in reality, is its role in socializing the concept of conservation to support and gather public opinion in order to initiate social change. The connection in concept phase between environment sustainability and communication is the contribution of each science in supporting positive impact to environment. The connection between two science, now it’s known as environmental communication. Looking into the importance of communication in supporting positive impact to environment, the article try to assess how media construct its writing/article in media, considering accessibility of people to environmental issue is mostly through media. Media has an authority to construct its text in media, by using its policy and perspective or angle in writing the text. So, the reality presents in media is not the reality itself, but the reality as seen by the individual perspective or in this case media policy perspective (Littlejohn, et.all, 2009: 180). A qualitative perspective on mainstream media, specially in print media, the text, that is appeared in media, will be the focused of the research and framing analysis will be used as a tool in looking into the text presented by the media . Frame analysis (Coverage, 2010: 11) refers to selection and salience, depiction, emphasis, representation, inclusion, and exclusion of issues or events. More on framing, (this is one part of the writer’s research writing for dissertation) Understanding media text, presented by media and consumed by its target, will support the understanding on how media constructs its environmental issue and communicate it to its public. The assumption is, if media text construct issue as a criminal text, the result will only be reactive action, not preventive and not using sustainability concept as basic understanding. The result will explain the contribution of media in communicating the environment issue through its text presented, and relations between environmental communication and social change.

Micro blog dengan karakter tulisan pendek (140 kata) ini telah mewabah dan digandrungi pengguna internet. Simpel dan menarik. Kiranya dua kata tersebut yang bisa mewakili keberadaan Twitter. Siapa saja bisa saling “berkicau” tentang topik apapun. Mau curhat, mau mencaci maki, bahkan bisa pula digunakan untuk menyampaikan informasi yang bermanfaat buat orang lain. Pada soal terakhir inilah penulis akan focus: Twitter si media penyampai informasi. Informasi, dalam jurnalistik, belumlah bisa dijadikan sebuah berita. Seorang jurnalis yang mendapatkan informasi mutlak mengkonfirmasinya terlebih dahulu. Setelah melewati proses konfirmasi, bahkan triple check, barulah berita tersebut layak tayang. Itupun setelah melewati proses editing oleh pejabat redaksi. Pola yang tak bisa dibantah jika tak ingin disomasi. Informasi biasanya, pada masa dulu, diperoleh dari sejumlah informan. Mereka bisa aparat hukum dan keamanan, masyarakat sipil, orang yang merasa dirugikan, dan sebagainya yang disampaikan melalui media yang konvensional dan lalu ditindaklanjuti. Ruang redaksi harus mendengarkan keras-keras radio berita sejenis Elshinta yang masih dianggap tercepat dalam menyampaikan informasi. Di sisi lain, mesin fax pembawa undangan konferensi pers dan event tak boleh lupa dilirik, pesan singkat dari ponsel juga tak boleh diabaikan. TV dengan layar lebar di depan mata yang menayangkan berbagai informasi tak boleh disia-sia. Kini, semenjak internet hadir mewarnai hidup umat manusia suasana ruang redaksi menjadi sedikit berubah. Jurnalis harus setiap saat memantau pergerakan berita di internet. Kehadiran Twitter memberikan dampak lain. Setiap jurnalis harus terus meng-update informasi dan berlomba-lomba memperlebar jaringan alias pertemanan di Twitter. Mengapa? Karena ternyata Twitter mampu menyampaikan informasi lebih cepat dibanding media yang lain. Bahkan lebih cepat dari portal berita berbasis internet sekaliber Kompas.com, Vivanews, atau Detik.com. Tak sedikit contoh soal kehebatan Twitter dalam menyampaikan informasi. Salah satunya adalah curhat Fajar Jasmin, penderita HIV, tentang anaknya yang ditolak sekolah di SD Don Bosco Kelapa Gading, Jakarta. Kabar meluas di Twitter. Media yang mencium informasi ini langsung bereaksi cepat memberitakan apa yang dialami Fajar Jasmin. Media nyaris tertinggal, meski pada akhirnya mampu membuat kisah Fajar Jasmin terangkat lebih luas lagi sehingga secara tidak langsung mengubah pendirian SD Don Bosco. Twitter tak sekedar penyambung kabar dari media massa, namun keberadaannya juga mampu memberi kabar bagi media massa. Fenomena apakah ini, sehingga mampu This International Communication Conference is open for senior and junior researchers as well as industry representatives who are interested to a friendly and supportive environment to share idea

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 30 Conflict of Interests in Freedom of Information (A Study on Communication Dynamics in the Deliberation of Freedom of Information Act) Felix Jebarus The London School Of Public Relations The deliberation of the freedom of information act drew pros and cons or communication conflicts between the government, House of Representatives (DPR), and civil society groups. Its deliberation also lasted for almost nine years from 1999 to 2008 and involved three presidents: Abdurrachman Wahid, Megawati Soekarnoputri, and Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. Although the law was submitted by DPR as one of its constitutional mandates, the law was initiated by social society groups. Issues raised for this research are: First, how had these communication conflicts taken place between the government, DPR, and civil society groups during the drafting and deliberation of the freedom of information act? Secondly, what were the referential sources and vested interests that triggered those communication conflicts and how were those disputes accommodated in the Law No. 14, 2008 on Freedom of Information Act? To explain those communication dynamics, the writer employs a conflict theory as defined by Ralf Dahrendorf and Lewis Coser, both belong to non-Marxian conflict theory tradition. Aside from rejecting theoretical assumptions of the functional theory perspective, Dahrendorf also refuted Marx’s ideas on both class formation and class conflict theories, which, according to him, are relevant in the early stage of capitalism only. Danrendorf developed his own conflict theory by focusing on a wider social structure. Conflict, according to Danrendorf, is related to power, interest, and social change. Conflicts are bound to happen between power holders and the powerless due to conflicting interests. How should we deal with conflicts so they become productive or constructive? The writer makes use of Coser’s functional conflict theory to support Danrendorf’s thinking. Coser emphasizes that disputes or conflict of ideas have positive effect if solved through resolutions or good communications. The methodology used is qualitative research with minutes of DPR meetings from Dec. 6, 2005 to Jan. 21, 2008 serving as primary sources. Using qualitative content analysis, the writer uncovers crucial issues and scrutinizes points of contention between the government, DPR, and civil society groups during the deliberation of the freedom of information act.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract Results of this research show that conflicts of communication that took place during the deliberation of the freedom of information act were mainly due to differences in views, interpretations, and interests on several issues such as (1). Freedom vs Rights of Citizens, (2), Public Institutions, (3), Information Committee, (4), Government Regulation, (5), State Secrets or Exceptions, and (6), Implementation Period of the Law. However, conflicts over these strategic issues were resolved through compromises, consensus, and accommodation. So, every word in the freedom of information act is resolution of communication conflicts or conflicting interests during the deliberation process. For a country with a fledging democracy like Indonesia, a seeming dichotomy between the state and the public tends to oversimplify issues. Results of this research also show the state relates or interacts with various social components such as the political society, economic society, and civil society. Each component has a unique role and contribution and interacts with each other even though they are autonomous. During the deliberation of the freedom of information act, the role of the civil society groups was very dominant in supporting, even in pressuring, DPR as the political society component, making them more powerful against the government. The freedom of information act provides legal certainty on the rights of the public to obtain public information, underlines legal obligations of Public Institutions or Public Officials to give public information; and most importantly it provides legal certainty on information access mechanism, resolution mechanism for information access disputes and sanctions for violations of freedom of information principles. The implementation of this law is expected to help bring about good governance in running public institutions. This dream will become a crucial question and is only answered through a follow-up research based on this research.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 31 Blackberry Messenger sebagai Fenomena Hubungan Sosialita Komunikasi Modern Lucy Pujasari Supratman Padjajaran University

Dalam kehidupan masyarakat dewasa ini, siapa yang tak kenal Blackberry Messenger atau lebih dikenal dengan akronim BBM. Tak ayal hal tersebut menjadi aktivitas kehidupan sehari-hari, baik kalangan pelajar atau pekerja bahkan kalangan teknokrat, alat komunikasi tersebut yang bermula hanya untuk kepentingan aktivitas eksekutif dalam karirnya, saat ini dijadikan ajang gaul dan jejaring sosial melalu BBM yang isi pesannyapun bukan hal yang berhubuangan dengan aktivitas kerja. Dalam hal ini penulis akan menghubungkannya dengan Teori Ketergantungan Media (Dependency Theory) yang dalam komunikasi massa menyatakan bahwa semakin seseorang tergantung pada suatu media untuk memenuhi kebutuhan komunikasinya, maka media tersebut semakin penting untuk orang itu. Besarnya ketergantungan seseorang pada media ditentukan dari dua variabel. Variabel pertama karena user lebih condong menggunakan BBM dibanding telpon atau SMS dikarekan secara pembiayaan akan mendapatkan free of charge payment jika kita berlangganan. Yang kedua, user mendapatkan efektivitas waktu dalam aktivitas kesehariannya berkomunikasi sebab sudah didobraknya dinding ruang dan waktu manusia berkomuniasi dengan millieu-nya. Namun secara etika, penggunaan BBM juga menuai nilai negatif dalam kehidupan sosial user-nya. Semisal pada saat rapat dikantor yang seharusnya tidak diperkenankan menggunakan Blackberry Messenger, terkadang hal tersebut tetap diindahkan atas dasar Updating Status. ***

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 38 The Use of Tablet Computer and Its Impact: A media ecological study Subekti W. Priyadharma This research focuses on recent electronic product of computer which known as tablet computer. The hype of utilization (and advertisement) of such product has given the idea to find out how the presence and the use of tablet computer impact socially and culturally to the society using it and the people around them. Theories of media ecology such as from McLuhan and Postman will be used in the discussion about social and cultural impact of tablet computer. Media ecology theories assume that all technological change is ecological, not additive. Result shows that the use of tablet computer has not only changed the pattern of interpersonal and group communication of the informants involved in the research (when combining with the use of social media), but also has impacted their information searching method. Meanwhile it is believed that the ownership and use of computer tablet could enhance their social status (prestige) in the community where they live and work. This change of social status is seen as important because in that way they can psychologically enter a social group emerged recently in the information society called ‘slide generation’. In particular and rare cases, the use of tablet computer can improve the performance of the informants in their work place. Nevertheless, tablet computer cannot replace both PC/laptop or phone cell/smart phone. This research uses Focus Group Discussion (FGD) as its data collection method.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 47 Orangtua, Teman Sebaya, dan Media Massa: Sebuah Model Sistem Ekologi dalam Pembentukan Orientasi Kerja Pemuda di Pedesaan Sarwititi Sarwoprasodjo & Yogaprasta Adinugraha Institut Pertanian Bogor Dewasa ini perkembangan media massa termasuk new media telah banyak memberikan efek kepada para pemuda, khususnya di masyarakat perkotaan. Di satu sisi media massa memberikan efek positif dan di sisi lain memberikan efek negatif dalam pembentukan identitas pemuda. Dari sudut agen sosialisasi, pemuda juga mendapat pengaruh yang kuat dari teman sebaya dalam proses pembentukan identitasnya, serta masih dalam pengasuhan orangtua. Sebagai bagian proses pembentukan identitas, pada tahap perkembangan ini pemuda juga diharapkan mengorientasikan diri pada dunia kerja. Yang menjadi pertanyaan bagaimana efek media massa dalam pembentukan identitas diri pemuda di pedesaan? Bagaimana pertarungan kekuatan pengaruh di antara agen sosialisasi (media massa, teman sebaya dan orangtua)? Apakah media massa memiliki efek yang lebih kuat dibandingkan agen sosialisasi yang lain? Dalam hal apa media massa berpengaruh? Dalam hal mana orangtua atau teman sebaya berpengaruh? Untuk menjawab perumusan masalah tersebut penulis menggunakan Model Ekologi Manusia (Brofenbrenner, 1981). Tulisan ini menunjukkan media massa merupakan salah satu pihak yang berperan dalam pembentukan identitas diri (pemilihan bidang pekerjaan) pemuda di pedesaan, walaupun pengaruhnya tidak sekuat pengaruh orangtua. Selain itu, tulisan ini juga menunjukkan hubungan kelompok umur dengan perilaku penggunaan media massa oleh pemuda tani, dan efek media massa dalam pemilihan pekerjaan.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 48 Fenomena Courtesy of Youtube Fizzy Andriani Universitas Prof. Dr. Moestopo (Beragama) Tingginya persaingan membuat masyarakat seperti sudah melupakan pentingnya arti sebuah proses belajar untuk mendapatkan hasil yang diinginkan. Agar tidak tertinggal dengan yang lain, orang cenderung memilih cara instan untuk mendapatkan apa yang diinginkannya. Budaya instan seperti sebuah virus yang sedang menggerogoti masyarakat Indonesia. Budaya ini masuk hampir disetiap sektor kehidupan masyarakat. Keinginan untuk mendapatkan sesuatu secara cepat dan mudah dan (mungkin) tanpa perlu repot repot berpikir. Tidak peduli hal yang dilakukan itu merugikan orang lain. Hal ini terjadi juga dihampir semua stasiun televisi kita. Banyaknya tayangan yang isinya hanya menayangkan video-video pendek dengan caption “courtesy of youtube”. Tayangan ini umumnya berisi tentang kejadian dan fenomena unik yang ada di youtube. Indikasi apakah ini? Sedemikian rendahkan kreatifitas pekerja televisi kita sampai sampai mereka hanya membuat ‘kliping’ video video unik tersebut? Youtube sebenarnya tidak memiliki hak penuh terhadap video yang diunggah. Setiap video dalam youtube memiliki hak cipta dan hak tayangnya sendiri. Youtube hanya berhak menayangkan, namun pemiliknya berhak untuk mencabut kembali video yang diunggahnya. Kalau pun Youtube sudah memberi izin, bagaimana dengan pengunggahnya? Apakah stasiun televisi tersebut telah mendapatkan izin dari si pengunggah video tersebut? Tidakkah ini berkaitan dengan Hak Kekayaan Intelektual? Atau justru memang pekerja tv tersebut sudah begitu malasnya untuk berkarya? Dalam salah satu episode Top 5 RCTI menampilkan tema “5 pebulutangkis Indonesia terpopuler” dan video video tersebut masih menggunakan caption Courtesy of Youtube. Malaskah mereka untuk mencari dokumentasi asli yang mereka miliki sendiri? Karena banyak dari tayangan tersebut juga ada dalam dokumentasi stasiun televisi tersebut.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 50 Pengaruh Jejaring Sosial Twitter Terhadap Kesadaran Politik Remaja Fransisca Diana Slamet Tjitrosampurno Andi Shabrina Gusti Deska Yunita Moestopo University Perkembangan ilmu teknologi dan komunikasi memberikan dampak besar bagi perkembangan media komunikasi, salah satunya dengan kemunculan media baru. Media baru yang saat ini banyak digunakan adalah jejaring sosial “Twitter”. Saat ini Twitter menjadi tempat pertemuan semu untuk berinteraksi dengan orang lain, untuk mengekspresikan diri, dan untuk memperoleh informasi terkini karena lebih mudah diakses, serta untuk berbagi pandangan secara luas. Hal ini dapat dikatakan sebagai bentuk dari determinasi teknologi, dimana keberadaan media komunikasi massa dilihat sebagai fenomena yang dibentuk untuk perkembangan masyarakat dari masyarakat agraris menjadi masyarakat informatif. Banyaknya pengguna Twitter dilihat sebagai lahan basah bagi berbagai pihak, baik untuk kepentingan berbisnis, maupun kepentingan politik. Terdapat banyak account twitter yang secara aktif menyampaikan isu politik terkini. Hal ini dapat menstimulus para pengguna twitter atau followers dari account tersebut unutuk memberikan respon. Setidaknya dapat menyentuh aspek kognitif dari followers tersebut, yang dapat diamati dari “Retweet” atau “Mention” terhadap tweet terkait. Peneliti beranggapan bahwa tweet mengenai isu politik dapat mempengaruhi tingkat kesadaran masyarakat terhadap politik, terutama remaja. Objek penelitian ini difokuskan pada remaja, karena remaja merupakan generasi penerus bangsa yang perlu memiliki kesadaran dan kepekaan politik Negara. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah observasi dan survey khalayak, dengan melakukan Focus Group Discussion, penyebaran kuisioner, dan indepth interview dengan menggunakan teori Computer Mediated Communication dan teori Media Baru. Dengan metode tersebut, diharapkan dapat diketahui apakah keberadaan jejaring social twitter berpengaruh pada tingkat kesadaran remaja terhadap politik.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 52 Adele Dan Komunikasi Kebertubuhan (Sebuah Telaah Filsafat Komunikasi Kebertubuhan Maurice Merleau-Ponty) Nurul Robbi Sepang & Sari Monik Agustin Universitas Al Azhar Inti dari pemikiran Merleau-ponty dalam komunikasi kebertubuhan dalam tulisan ini adalah bahwa manusia, melalui tubuhnya, bersatu dengan dunia “luar tubuh”. Tubuh menjadi pusat eksistensi manusia. Manusia menjadi Ada karena kehadiran tubuhnya. Dalam pemikiran Merleau-Ponty, tubuh manusia selalu berada dalam dua suasana, yaitu suasana “Ada” – etre dan suasana “Memiliki” – avoir.Pemikiran MerleauPonty bersumber pada tubuh yang ambiguitas. Tubuh memiliki dwi arti, yaitu tubuh sebagai mesin, dan tubuh sebagai subyek. Artinya Merleau-Ponty menerima bahwa memang tubuh dapat bersifat seperti mesin (dalam suasana memiliki), namun tubuh juga bersifat sebagai subyek (dalam suasana ada). Adele adalah seorang diva baru dalam dunia tarik suara. Di usianya yang baru menginjak 21 tahun, Adele telah meraih berbagai penghargaan. Di bulan Februari 2012, Adele berhasil meraih 6 penghargaan di ajang Grammy Award ke-54 yang diselenggarakan di Los Angeles Amerika Serikat. Ini membuktikan bahwa Adele dapat dikatakan adalah ikon bagi kaum muda pada masa ini. Namun demikian, keberhasilan Adele di panggung musik dunia ternyata tidak menghentikan komentar miring atas dirinya. Salah satunya adalah komentar dari perancang rumah mode Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld. Lagerfeld mengecam bentuk tubuh Adele di berbagai media. Komentarnya mengenai tubuh Adele yang dinilai terlalu gemuk menuai banyak pro dan kontra. Tulisan ini melihat bagaimana fenomena ini dalam telaah filsafat komunikasi kebertubuhan Maurice Merleau-Ponty, terutama dikaitkan dengan pemikirannya mengenai ambiguitas tubuh.Pada akhirnya, berdasarkan pemikiran Merleau-Ponty, fenomena perbedaan pendapat atas perspektif dalam melihat tubuh memang selalu akan terjadi karena dalam komunikasi kebertubuhan Merleau-Ponty, tubuh dapat dilihat sebagai mesin, namun tubuh juga dapat dilihat sebagai subyek.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 53 Perubahan Pola Konsumsi Media Informasi di Kalangan Remaja Urban Hadi Purnama Telkom Institute of Management, Bandung Saat ini tengah terjadi pergeseran dominasi media dari mainstream media baik media cetak maupun media elektronik - ke media alternatif, khususnya media sosial yang perkembangannya menjadi fenomena menarik dalam lima tahun terakhir. Kehadiran media social seperti Facebook, Twitter, Blog, dan YouTube, dianggap telah merevolusi cara pengguna media dalam mengakses informasi. Fenomena global ini terjadi seiring dengan hadirnya media sosial sebagai salah satu lokomotif perubahan dalam industri media dalam satu dasawarsa terakhir. Perubahan ini juga kemudian berimbas ke tanah air, khususnya di kalangan remaja urban, yang memanfaatkan social media sebagai media sebagai sumber informasi primer mereka. Uniknya perubahan ini justru berdampak paling signifikan pada pola konsumsi media di kalangan remaja urban.Remaja urban – yang kerap disebut generasi digital native – memiliki media habit yang relatif berbeda dibandingkan mereka yang termasuk digital immigrant. Terang saja fenomena ini cukup berdampak pada perkembangan industri mainstream media, yang berbasis pada media cetak dan elektronik. Ada berbagai alasan yang melatarbelakangi telaah mengenai pemanfaatan media social yang berbasis Internet maupun yang menggunakan platform mobile sebagai sumber informasi oleh remaja urban. Melalui makalah ini akan dielaborasi motif remaja urban dalam memanfaatkan media sosial; karakteristik yang dimiliki media sosial sebagai sumber informasi; bagaimana pemanfaatan media sosial sebagai media informasi di kalangan remaja urban; informasi apa saja yang dicari dari media sosial; serta strategi yang digunakan oleh media sosial untuk menjaring pengguna dari kalangan remaja.

Kehadirannya bukan saja dijadikan sebagai media komunikasi alternatif yang telah mengubah pola komunikasi, juga telah membawa angin segar bagi tumbuh kembangnya entrepreneurship di kalangan muda di Indonesia. Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir media sosial seperti facebook, twitter, youtube dan blog telah dimanfaatkan sebagai media promosi alternatif bagi entrepreneur muda. Beragam produk ditawarkan melalui media sosial yang dianggap memiliki sejumlah kelebihan sebagai media pemasaran alternatif, karena memiliki karakteristik yang tidak dimiliki oleh media pemasaran konvensional. Para entrepreneur muda menggunakan media sosial dengan pertimbangan sifat interaktivitasnya, daya jangkaunya, efisiensi, serta dapat dikustomisasi. Pemanfaatan media sosial sebagai media promosi oleh entrepreneur muda telah membuahkan banyak kisah sukses (success story). Salah satunya yang paling fenomenal adalah pemasaran keripik pedas Mak Icih yang menggunakan media sosial sebagai media pemasarannya. Di luar itu masih ada ribuan entrepreneur muda yang telah memanfaatkan media sosial untuk memasarkan produknya di jagat maya. Salah satu fenomena unik yang menyertai pemasaran melalui media sosial adalah viral marketing. Sebuah terminologi yang mirip dengan konsep Word of Mouth dalam konsep pemasaran konvensional, hanya saja dibedakan dari pemanfataan media sosial dengan berbagai karakteristik unik yang yang dimilikinya. Melalui telaah ini diharapkan dapat dielaborasi pemanfaatan media sosial sebagai media pemasaran, sekaligus dapat mendorong bangkitnya generasi entrepreneur muda baru di era 3.0.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 56 Pola Konsumsi Media Pada Remaja Pantura, Cirebon Ida Ri’aeni Universitas Muhammadiyah Cirebon. Remaja ditengarai sebagai generasi penerus bangsa. Dengan memahami perilaku komunikasi para remaja, sedianya peneliti dapat memetakan orientasi kekinian para pemuda yang akan bermanfaat bagi tujuan masa mendatang. Kemajuan teknologi dewasa ini membawa banyak perubahan terhadap cara berkomunikasi. Saat ini mulai terjadi pergeseran pola konsumsi media yang juga mempengaruhi sikap masyarakat. Berubahnya pola konsumsi media ditandai dengan diversifikasi penggunaan media pada kalangan tertentu, termasuk juga remaja. Dahulu biasanya remaja mencari informasi dengan menonton TV atau membaca koran, sekarang banyak sumber lain seperti facebook dan Twitter. Loyalitas pada satu media pun kini mulai bergeser. Remaja bukan lagi loyal ke surat kabar atau majalah tertentu tapi ke Google. Para remaja di daerah pantai utara Jawa, tak luput dari paparan perubahan pola konsumsi media tersebut. Riset dilakukan pada remaja yang berada di Kecamatan Kapetakan, Kabupaten Cirebon dengan menggunakan metode studi kasus. Teknik yang digunakan adalah observasi, wawancara mendalam, studi kepustakaan, dan FGD. Sebagai masyarakat dengan rata-rata tingkat ekonomi menengah ke bawah dan pendidikan SD-SMP, subjek penelitian banyak menggunakan televisi sebagai media acuan. Selain itu, pola konsumsi remaja juga masih mengarah pada penggunaan radio lokal yang kental dengan nuansa budaya daerah, interaktif, bersahabat dan bersifat personal. Selanjutnya, program Internet Masuk Desa dan layanan internet hemat pada telepon selular, menjadi pilihan. Dalam hal ini, situs jejaring sosial yaitu facebook adalah yang paling diminati untuk bertukar informasi.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 57 Analisis Pemaknaan Terhadap Aktivitas Like di Facebook terhadap Komunitas Jempolers Jogjakarta Amanda Kusuma Wardhani Diaz Bela Yustisia Rizma Kristiana Universitas Gadjah Mada Keberadaan media baru saat ini memang telah menjadi fenomena tersendiri bagi masyarakat, terutama mengenai model komunikasi manusia. Kepopuleran media baru sendiri telah menjadi bagian kebudayaan masyarakat. Penggunaan media baru ini bukan hanya tuntutan dunia global saja, tetapi juga telah menjadi sebuah gaya hidup. Media baru rupanya telah menjembatani kebutuhan pokok manusia sebagai makhluk sosial untuk berinteraksi dengan lebih cepat dan tanpa batasan ruang dan waktu. Melalui media baru, model komunikasi interpersonal tradisional telah berubah. Penerapan peran komunikan dan komunikator dalam bentuk fisik yang memungkinkan terjadinya komunikasi interpersonal pun menjadi tabu karena kini baik komunikan dan komunikator dapat mengubah fisik mereka dalam sebuah identitas online melalui media baru. Identitas secara fisik tidak lagi dibutuhkan disini, dan sebagai gantinya identitas tersebut tergantikan dengan gambar (foto diri atau avatar) dan personal statement yang ditulis. Facebook adalah salah satu situs pertemanan sosial yang cukup populer di Indonesia. Indonesia menduduki peringkat kedua pengguna facebook terbanyak di dunia dengan lebih dari 35 juta pengguna dengan rata-rata usia pemakainnya 23 tahun, disusul Inggris di peringkat ketiga dengan hampir 29 juta pengguna, dan Amerika Serikat tetap menduduki posisi pertama dengan jumlah pengguna diatas 152 juta dengan rata-rata pemakainnya berusia 32 tahun. (www.tekno.kompas.com). Banyaknya aplikasi yang bisa digunakan dalam Facebook membuat penggunanya nyaman berlama-lama mengakses situs jejaring sosial ini. Dengan memiliki akun Facebook, pengguna dapat mengunggah foto, menyebarkan tautan, memperbarui status, bercengkrama dengan sesama pengguna lain, hingga sekedar memberikan like. Like, adalah salah satu aplikasi dalam Facebook yang dapat menggambarkan kesukaan seseorang terhadap apa yang ter-posting. Like di simbolkan dengan gambar jempol beserta nama akun dan angka yang menunjukan jumlah orang yang menyukai postingan tersebut.

Untuk beberapa orang, mungkin like tak lebih dari sekedar aplikasi dalam Facebook yang dapat mewakili perasaan suka terhadap sesuatu yang di-posting. Namun, bagi sebagian lagi, like adalah cara wajib untuk meningkatkan eksistensi sebagai salah satu jalan untuk berinteraksi antar sesama pengguna facebook. Eksistensi tersebut diperlukan untuk menyokong identitas online yang mereka miliki.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 58 Identity as Becoming: Studi tentang Pengaruh K-POP terhadap Identitas Budaya Remaja Perempuan di Indonesia Lutviah Universitas Paramadina K-POP atau Korean Pop Culture saat ini telah menjadi fenomena tersendiri di berbagai negara di dunia, tak terkecuali di Indonesia. K-POP tidak hanya menjadi sebuah genre musik, namun juga sebuah fenomena kultural tersendiri bagi banyak orang. Dalam perkembangannya, K-POP bahkan mampu mempengaruhi identitas budaya para penggemarnya. Media massa dalam hal ini merupakan instrumen penting dalam diseminasi budaya K-POP kepada masyarakat global. Di Indonesia, K-POP masuk melalui hampir semua jalur media. K-POP mendapat dukungan baik dari media mainstream maupun media baru dalam menyalurkan produk-produk budayanya kepada masyarakat global, tak terkecuali masyarakat Indonesia. Di Indonesia, fenomena tersebut sudah mulai terasa. Remaja sebagaimana sasaran dalam invasi budaya ini sudah banyak dipengaruhi oleh nilai-nilai budaya tersebut. Tidak adanya kontrol terhadap Korean Wave ini membuat K-POP semakin leluasa mempengaruhi nilainilai dan identitas budaya para penggemarnya. Hal tersebut sudah dapat kita lihat secara kasat mata melalui media massa maupun remaja-remaja di lingkungan sekitar. Penelitian ini mencoba menganalisa sejauh mana pengaruh K-POP terhadap identitas budaya remaja, khususnya remaja perempuan di Indonesia. Untuk menganalisis hal tersebut, penelitian ini akan melakukan wawancara mendalam kepada para penggemar K-POP. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah kualitatif dengan landasan teori Identitas Budaya dari Stuart Hall. Penelitian ini dirasa penting untuk dilakukan sebagai salah satu langkah persiapan dalam membentengi budaya-budaya luar yang dapat merusak tatanan budaya lokal di Indonesia. Jangan sampai budaya luar yang terlampau bebas dikonsumsi malah membuat budaya lokal tidak lagi mendapat perhatian dari remaja-remaja di Indonesia.

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract No. 61 Journalistic Ethics in the Cyber Era is at Stake Pupung Arifin University of Atma Jaya, Yogyakarta The regulation on Cyber Media News (Pedoman Pemberitaan Media Siber: Ind.) has been endorsed by the Press Council along with the Press Community on Friday (February 3rd, 2012). It is still in the form of a regulation, has not been in the Press Council Law. Yet, by the endorsement of this regulation, it can serve as a response from the Press Council in facing the development of information technology and mass media in Indonesia. Besides some conventional media, printed as well as television that have long been shifted to online gateway market, there are also other news gateways that have focused their business on online or cyber mass media since their establishment. The endorsement of this regulation can also be perceived as a preliminary measure before the existence of a new law concerning the content of digital cyber media which come into their existence in different kinds and format and that can be produced by wider array of publishers, not limited to professional journalists only. Due to those varied publishers, journalism concept in the news content means very widely. Blog community or an owner of social media account can easily compose an article, and directly upload in their private site or the one of their community. In so doing, the principle of journalism work in composing an article is surely questionable. The enactment of this regulation is also interesting if it is linked to the process of the deliberation for Media Convergence Bill (RUU) that is still being discussed by the government, media practitioners and academics experts. The Media convergence Bill which is basically the replacement of broadcasting Law, Telecommunication Law and Press-Film Law will be comprehensive if they take the regulation on Cyber Media News into account. The Convergence Concept, can not surely be separated from the cyber world as its medium. The main objective of enacting this media regulation is to return the journalistic nature to the content of cyber mass media. The media practitioners have, so far been worried with the trend of the simplified non-standard writing and the wide array of cyber media portal. In that case the character and the standard of journalistic writing are more and more seriously ignored by a wider society, including the media practitioners themselves.

We must admit that the regulation on Cyber Media News can not be said as perfect, as we can witness on the regulation on other mass media, this regulation is limited to regulate the standard of operating procedure of cyber media industry. This regulation still ignores the society’s interest. This society is the last end consumers of This International Communication Conference is open for senior and junior researchers as well as industry representatives who are interested to a friendly and supportive environment to share idea

The 3rd International Communication Research Conference Youth, Media, and Social Change Abstract mass media product. A very important question due to this presentation is that: Is the journalism ethics which was made since the euphoria of conventional media (printed media) still important and relevant in the era of cyber media, whose definition is frequently vague. Ward (2009) noted that media convergence changed present mass media culture into the layered journalism. The printed media is forced to shift the trend of the technology advancement by establishing news portal such as done by Kompas, Media Indonesia, Tempo, Jawa Pos and others. To go with the trend, the pioneers of online news portal in Indonesia, detik.com has again innovated e-newspaper and e-magazine, to go along with the popularity of tablet pc in the society. Related to the first question, who, then is called the journalist? At present, anybody can be the producer of the news. Anyone can upload an article in a blog, their account in the social media, or sharing video in a site. Mass media at present, has not been an exclusive right of the journalists. Anyone can produce the news, whether it is an accurate and based on the fact or a questionable news whose reliability is questionable. The third question, what is journalism? Must a journalism process be done by a journalist? May society’s journalism not comply with the aspect of journalistic ethics? What will happen then when this society’s journalism can win the heart the society of the internet users? What will happen then if the workers in journalistic industry quote the sources of their articles from the posting done by the society in common in their private blog or social media account? Then, what solution can be offered by the Indonesian journalism community to face this challenge, including what strategic measure that can be taken by the Press Council in order to protect the society as the last end consumer of the cyber media product which flood massively to their personal territory: smart phone, tablet pc and other sophisticated gadgets in 7/24 of their life.

In spite of the expansion of ICT professions, few women get vocational training and enter academic programs leading to ICT professions. Many authors point to the Socialization Theory to explain the phenomenon –the learning of gender roles from infancy dictate future career choice. Moreover, scholars have mentioned the following factors that discourage women to enter the profession – macho culture, image of ICT as nerdy, feeling of isolation, extreme work pressure, glass ceiling phenomenon and ageism. The paper ends with a presentation of policy frameworks devised in some countries that deal with women under-representation in the ICT sector. The endeavors of some corporations to attract women to the field are likewise discussed.
