Authors:Tajudeen O. AJAYI; Olasunmbo O. ADHUZE, Tolulope F. OMOTOSO Abstract: This paper explores the use of tie-dye and batik fabric as sustainable materials for interior design projects. Based on a survey of 154 interior designers and professionals, the study examines perceptions, preferences, and challenges related to these traditional dyeing techniques. Participants exhibit positive attitudes towards tie-dye and batik fabric, though encountering issues like availability, quality, maintenance, and compatibility. Descriptive and inferential statistics, along with exploratory analyses of open-ended questions, support these findings. The paper highlights implications for sustainable interior design practice and research. Collaborative efforts involving interior designers, manufacturers, suppliers, consumers, educators, policymakers, and stakeholders are recommended to promote the integration of tie-dye and batik fabric for a more environmentally friendly future.

Authors:Sahrul N; Yusril , Afrizal H. Abstract: The Minangkabau Opera Malin Nan Kondang is a work of art that attempts to combine concepts of traditional and modern art. The traditional concept used is the Minangkabau folk theater Randai. The modern concept is the concept of opera which is widely used throughout the world. Randai, a form of traditional Minangkabau theater, is joined together in this work with the essence of opera. The circles in Randai, with the rhythmic pencak movements accompanied by singing, are reprocessed and simplified. The essence of Randai is adapted to fit the structure of a conventional script. A folktale is used only as the inspiration for creating an innovative work. The folktale used, Malin Kundang, is about a son who disobeys and betrays his mother and has a curse put on him, turning him into stone. Meanwhile, the Minangkabau Opera Malin Nan Kondang, tells of the romance between Malin and Nilam. Their love story involves numerous challenges but the performance has a happy ending when the two characters finally meet and live happily ever after. The method used to analyze the Minangkabau Opera Malin Nan Kondang is the pamenan method, which views the performance from the perspective of a game and something that is well-loved in Minangkabau culture. This research is founded on the method and technique of qualitative writing, which is a strategy for obtaining descriptive data or information about the meaning of an object, action, or in this case the events related to the Minangkabau Opera Malin Nan Kondang. Keywords: opera Minangkabau, randai, pamenan, folk tale DOI : 10.7176/ADS/106-02 Publication date:August 31st 2023
Authors:Nur Ayday Abstract: In the early years of the republic founded in Turkey under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, one of the most important issues was art. One of the most important areas of art was music. Although the country had a deeply rooted musical culture from the past, it was unfortunately not possible at that time to institutionalize this culture in an academic way. The young talents who were sent abroad to study music aimed to ensure this institutionalisation. The Turkish Five, known as the first composers of modern Turkey, were pioneers and educators of institutionalisation efforts as well as composers identified with Atatürk's breakthroughs in the field of music. The composers of the Turkish Five are Cemal Reşit Rey, Hasan Ferid Alnar, Ulvi Cemal Erkin, Ahmed Adnan Saygun and Necil Kazım Akses. These are the composers who kept up with the civilised world and made themselves known and accepted with their compositions. The reason why Ahmed Adnan Saygun occupies an important place in the development of Turkish music is the fact that the composer has written works in many different genres. He has important works in forms such as solo, piano, chamber music, opera, sonata and concerto. He pushed the boundaries of his music especially in his symphonic works written during his middle-aged. He used the maqam scale as a colour in his works and showed this in his orchestral language. Based on this importance, the aim of this study is to present information on the life, musical approaches and five symphonies of Ahmed Adnan Saygun, who is one of the Turkish Five and who introduced Turkish music to the next generations both as an educator and as a composer.
