“…Thus, performance studies do not "read" an act or ask what "text" will be played. However, the emphasis is on behavior, how to interact with the audience and the people who see it, which thus cause different reactions and meanings; and how the logo changes meaning over time and in different contexts (Lavender, 2003;Thomas et al, 2021).…”

This study aims to dissect the material contained in the Yogyakarta logo and how its performance as a city branding. Furthermore, the study was carried out to see how the negotiations took place in the performativity of elements and symbols in the reflection of the people of Yogyakarta. This research uses a qualitative case study approach to examine how the community responds to the Yogyakarta logo as city branding. The responses obtained were then dissected with a performative point of view from Richard Schechner and the agency of Alfred Gell, which in this study emphasizes the logo as an agency and representation of Yogyakarta in carrying out city branding. A textual study was conducted on the Yogyakarta logo, and a contextual study was conducted on the public's response to the Yogyakarta logo. The formal object of this research is the performativity of the Yogyakarta logo as city branding. The results showed that every visual element in the logo of Yogyakarta represents the life of the people in Yogyakarta. The emphasis is also placed on a modern perspective in typography and a trend towards a modern logo. Furthermore, the performativity of the elements that negotiate with the community's response is influenced by the public perception built in Yogyakarta. Therefore, the performativity aspect lies in the triadic relationship between visual (text), contextual elements related to daily life, and history so that the agency process by the Yogyakarta City logo runs optimally.

“…Hartley (Hartley 2004) examines Big Brother as a means of "taming the self " while Tincknell and Raghuram (Tincknell and Raghuram 2002) use Big Brother to examine the phenomenon of audience participation.

This article will examine the Big Brother television series through the prism of the anthropology of religion. It will examine the ways in which Big Brother is comparable to a pilgrimage on the one hand and a tribal initiation ceremony on the other. In this regard, Victor Turner's research on these subjects, and related criticisms, will be discussed in detail. It will argue that one possible reason for the popularity of Big Brother is that it is a modern liminal phase in which contestants undergo suffering to attain the status of celebrity. This, it will argue, is pertinent because modern society prizes celebrity so highly. Thus, it will argue that the Big Brother programme appeals not only to voyeurism but to a kind of religious or tribal structure-that those who endure suffering have their status raised.
