Penyuluhan Penyajian karya dan Persiapan Pameran Fotografi Forum Komunikasi Fotografi Mahasiswa Yogyakarta (FORKOM Jogja)

Di Yogyakarta terdapat sejumlah UKM Fotografi yang rutin menyelenggarakan pameran foto dalam periode tertentu, biasanya tahunan. Kegiatan ini menambah dinamika dunia fotografi serta turut memajukan fotografi Indonesia. Karya foto perlu ditunjang dengan cara penyajian yang baik agar pesan yang hendak disampaikan dalam karya dapat terseberangkan. Selain itu, penyajian yang baik akan meningkatkan nilai karya berikut apresiasi dari penonton pameran. Sayangnya, penyajian karya yang dilakukan oleh UKM-UKM Fotografi yang tergabung dalam FORKOM Jogja ini masih kurang diperhatikan. Untuk itu, diperlukan penyuluhan dalam hal penyajian karya dan persiapan pameran. Metode  yang  digunakan  adalah  pemberian  teori  di  dalam  ruangan  kelas  oleh  dosen-­dosen fotografi Institut Seni Indonesia Yogyakarta. Adapun praktik yang dilakukan berupa eksperimen penyajian karya fotografi oleh seniman fotografi Mes56 Yogyakarta. Berdasarkan penyuluhan yang telah dilakukan terhadap sebagian kecil komunitas fotografi di Yogyakarta, disimpulkan bahwa materi penyajian pameran sangat diperlukan oleh masyarakat fotografi. Penyajian karya fotografi sangat mempengaruhi hasil karya serta dapat pula didayagunakan untuk menyatu dengan karya. In Yogyakarta, there are several photography cliques that periodically hold photo exhibitions, usually annualy. This event adds to the dynamic of Indonesia photography world and also to improve the development of photography in Indonesia. Photos need to be supported with proper presentation to ensure the intended message can be conveyed through. Aside of that, a good presentation will raise the photo value and appreciation from the visitors. Unfortunately, photo presentations that has been done by cliques within FORKOM Jogja still needs improvement. Hence it is needed to create a workshop about photo presentation and exhibit preparation. The methods used is theoretical lesson done in classroom by the lecturers of Indonesian Institute of Arts (ISI Yogyakarta) from Photography major. One of the practice being shown is the photo presentation from the photographer Mes56 Yogyakarta. Based on the conducted workshop that has been done to a small number of photography communities in Yogyakarta, it can be deduced that material about exhibit presentation is highly needed by the photography communities. The way of how a photo is presented heavily influences the photo’s value and is exploitable to connect more with the photo

Kedudukan TAP MPR dan Implikasinya terhadap Hierarki Peraturan Perundang Undangan di Indonesia

Terjadinya tarik ulur penempatan Ketetapan MPR dalam hirarkhi peraturan Perundang-undangan ternyata telah memunculkan barbagai tanggapan pro dan kontra, disatu sisi keberadaan Undang-udang Nomor 12 Tahun 2011 tentang Pembentukan Peraturan Perundang-undangan, mengakibatkan TAP MPR secara otomatis (ex-officio) akan menjadi rujukan dalam pembentukan dan penerapan ketentuan peraturan Perundang-undangan yang berada di bawahnya. Dalam hal ini UU/Perpu, PP. Perpres, dan Perda. namun di sisi lain akibat dimasukkannya kembali TAP MPR dalam hierarki peraturan Perundang-undangan, maka muncul persoalan dalam hal pengujian norma diantara peraturan Perundang-undangan lainnya. Bagaimana jika TAP MPR bertentangan dengan UUD Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945? Dan bagaimana pula jika terdapat UU yang bertentangan dengan TAP MPR? Jika merunut kepada sistem kekuasaan kehakiman Indonesia dewasa ini, uji materi dibebankan kepada Mahkamah Konstitusi. Akan tetapi kewenangan Mahkamah Konsitusi sebatas uji materi UU terhadap UUD. Tidak ada ketentuan khusus yang mengatur tata cara pengujian TAP MPR terhadap UUD atapun UU terhadap TAP MPR. Mahkamah Konstitusi tidak boleh serta merta melakukan pengujian terhadap TAP MPR, kecuali Mahkamah Konstitusi melakukan upaya hukum progresif seperti yang dilakukan selama ini
