In this research, Annisa conducted an examination of intermedia art as the manifestation of reintegration between the cultures of art, science and technology in two formal institutions of visual arts. This research was a combination of Annisa’s thesis for her Master’s Degree at Bandung Institute of Technology and a Research Fellowship (granted by MEXT Japan) at Tokyo University of the Arts.

The research was a comparative study on intermedia art education for the Bachelor’s Degree at Bandung Institute of Technology and Tokyo University of the Arts. Both institutions are recognized in their respective countries and internationally, but the primary affinity between the two is the fact that both are visionaries. Tokyo University of the Arts is the first institution in Asia with intermedia art department (established in 1999). Bandung Institute of Technology is the first institution in Southeast Asia with intermedia art as one of its majors (established in 2007).

01. RESUME

 
 
 

Intomedia is a collective initiative in creating a platform for two artists, one curator and one researcher to discuss, speculate and explore in the realm of media arts. Intomedia consists of an exhibition, workshop and artist talk (held at Galeri Soemardja). The term media arts and/or new media arts are often problematically equivocal because the multifarious discipline and genre it represented, moreover the nature of its discourse that usually manifested differently in each institution, society, or culture. Annisa, as the researcher, observed the works of two artists (Aditya and Riar) and curator (Bob) in reflection with the comprehension of the meaning of ‘media’ itself in Indonesian society, its association with the emerging intermedia art in Indonesia, and further in relation with the country’s technoculture.
