Batik is one of the world most recognizedIndonesian heritage. The "batik" has been existed since very oldtime and it has been embedded in Indonesian culture - that is whyin its broadest sense, the process of the batik cannot be reducedinto merely steps of the ornamentations. The materials incorporatedin it also play an important role, including the fabric, theorganic colorings, the wax (although it happens that some ethnicgroups in Indonesia do not use wax a material for the craftingbatik), and so on.Batik textiles emanate beautiful ornamentations and pictureswith painting techniques by resisting wax (or other non-permanentcohesive) after the dyeing processes. As the largest ethnic groupin Indonesia thus Javanese batik is the most well-known in theworld of traditional fashion. Nonetheless, attaching batik merelyto Javanese culture becomes superficial for batik has been there ina lot of corners of society across the Indonesian Archipelago.Endeavors understanding Indonesian culture would reveal the usageof clay as other way instead of wax to produce batik, e.g.: WesternSumatera, while in depth observation of Banjar People (SouthernKalimantan) would reveal how the nobles protecting themselves fromthe evil spirit by wearing Sasirangan fabric instead of the commonrealization of Javanese batik affine to the living keraton(Javanese palace). Thus, batik is a living artifact that has beenattached to the minds of the people living in IndonesianArchipelago from generations to generations collectively. How theycraft, wear, and appreciate the batik become so diverse, andacquisition of Science and Technology in detail research formapping their appreciation to the motifs depicting by theirrespective "batik" in their evolutionary, innovative, andstatistical proximity is thus very interestingly visualizingIndonesian people."Phylomemy" is like a sort of "map" of "phylogeny" in biology,but it is about cultural information in stead, made based upon themathematical and geometric aspects of batik design. The traditionalIndonesian cloth designs are analyzed by calculating mathematicaland statistical aspects within. The variables are the employment ofdominant colorings and the fractal dimensions computed fromrespective motifs. The geographical aspects show how each socialgroup evolved and innovated the fabric visual aestheticsspecifically in each region in the archipelago drawn fromgenerations to generations. All of variables play the role as meme– the elementary unit of information yielding the complex cognitiveaspects of human culture while the phylomemetic shows the “kinship”among all, just like the DNA sequences in biological structures.The “kinship” among collective cognitive systems from places toplaces is reflected in the branches and the leaves of thephylomemetic tree.This map is brought to you by Bandung Fe Institute, the researchcenter for complexity in Surya University.

Fractal geometry is a kind of "geometry" withvery special symmetry. The repeating and iterative patterns havemade the self-similarity shapes on different scales of thefractals. Fractals have shown that roughness are actually regular,as to cosmos (orderlines) is out of chaos (disorderlines).Batik is a traditional kind of filling the blank space withinfabric by wax-resist dyeing. The repeating and iterative patternsby drawing the dots and lines employ a kind of geometry thatexploits the roughness within their motifs and harmonization tofill in the blank. Batik drawing has shown how paintings can bedelivered from irregular shape and patterns, where cosmos shouldcome from the natural chaos.phyBatik uses the pseudoalgorithm of Indonesian batik drawings.Artisans capture the dynamics of the drawing elements as simulatedin the "Nithik Panel". The basic motifs are then plotted into adesign in the "Klowong Panel", where stories are drawn by using theelements drawn from the previous panel. The drawing is intwo-dimensional landscapes filling the blank space. Eventually, thedesign is completed aesthetically by many possible small patterns("Isen") to fill the blank residue among the basic motifs. A stepby step tutorial is available:http://fraktal.bandungfe.net/tutPhyBatik/This application is made possible by the research in the BandungFe Institute, the research center for complexity in SuryaUniversity, that previously have been used in many batik workshopsheld by acroBatik of BFI Technologies Indonesia. The idea is tosimulate the generative process of batik without loosing thefundamentals of the geometry employed in the traditional andclassical Indonesian batik.By using this application, you have brought donation for theopen digital library of Indonesian Cultural Heritagewww.budaya-indonesia.org from which researches on Indonesiantraditional culture, including the research phyBatik has been madeupon.support URL: http://xityzone.commarketing URL: http://acrobatik.biz
