Abstract Theatre, in the notional complexity to be undertaken, updates and in this update it feels more pronounced the tendencies of increasing the performing spectrum. Writing about theatre inevitably leads you to set on something, on that attribute bringing the conviction that around its analysis the appreciative matters get interesting and reveal assumptions for future analysis. The article we propose approaches theatre in the cardinal ambiguity of meanings, namely in what we call here interval. We assume an approximate delimitation of this range, balancing and improving the center-periphery relationship, and then establish ourselves to turn the performance itself into a phenomenon, with a double implication. Making a connection between the audience and the performance is not something new, but if the significance, the midpoint of this relationship is fractured in the process transmitter-receiver, can we not think of the possibility of the interval/range as a deconstruct refuge of meanings? This paper asserts that if hiding the meaning becomes a phenomenon itself, it will be possible to read the performance by averaging this interval in which will be found, in the articulation of the public’s reception, the association of the cultural and theatrical codes.

Analysis of light optical diffraction patterns produced by electron micrographs can easily lead to much nonsense. Such diffraction patterns are referred to as optical transforms and are compared with transforms produced by a variety of mathematical manipulations. In the use of light optical diffraction patterns to study periodicities in macromolecular ultrastructures, a number of potential pitfalls have been rediscovered. The limitations apply to the formation of the electron micrograph as well as its analysis.(1) The high resolution electron micrograph is itself a complex diffraction pattern resulting from the specimen, its stain, and its supporting substrate. Cowley and Moodie (Proc. Phys. Soc. B, LXX 497, 1957) demonstrated changing image patterns with changes in focus. Similar defocus images have been subjected to further light optical diffraction analysis.

Anti Virus are nasty software’s. It is designed to damage computer systems without the knowledge of the owner using the system and technique advancements are posing big challenges for researchers in both academia and the industry. The purpose of this study is to examine the available literatures on Anti Virus analysis and to determine how research has evolved and advanced in terms of quantity, content and publication outlets. Most Anti Virus programs are large and complex and one can’t possibly understand every detail. Educating the internet users about Anti Virus attack, as well as the implementation and proper application of anti-Anti Virus tools, are critical steps in protecting the identities of online consumers against Anti Virus attacks.

ABSTRACT ‘Tanda Tanya (?)’ movie has become an Indonesian cinematic work with some controversies complement with it. The controversies lie on how the movie constructed their messages related to the description of Islamic image. The Islamic image which is depicted in this movie contains several sym- bols which created a demonization on the construction of Islam and Moslem. The narrative theory that has been employed focuses on greimas actantial analysis models which emphasizes on how the narrative creates a story and how the story becomes a narrative discourse. The semiotic analysis used on this research is in term of constructivist perspective which aims at constructing the phenomena as a whole answer. The result of the research is that demonization of Islam has been constructed through the narrative sequences of ‘Tanda Tanya’. The movie depicted Islam in an image of traditional, un- civilized, terrorism, destructive, and aggressive community. This created a meaning of Islam as a negative and demonic community, religion, and value. Keywords: demonization, Islam, narrative  ABSTRAK Film ‘Tanda Tanya (?)’ merupakan sebuah karya cinema Indonesia yang mengundang banyak kontroversi. Kontroversi terletak pada bagaimana film ini mengkonstruksikan pesan-pesannya terkait penggambaran citra Islam. Citra Islam yang digambarkan dalam film ini mengandung simbol-simbol yang menciptakan sebuah demonisasi pada kon- struksi Islam dan muslim. Dalam penelitian ini teori naratif digunakan sebagai alat un- tuk memberikan gambaran tentang fenomena demonisasi. Teori naratif yang digunakan berfokus pada model analisis aktansial greimas yang menitikberatkan bagaimana naratif menciptakan sebuah cerita dan bagaimana cerita menjadi sebuah wacana naratif. Analisis semiotik yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini berdasarkan penggunaan dalam paradigma konstruktivis yang bertujuan mengkonstruksi fenomena sebagai sebuah jawaban. Temuan penelitian ini ialah demonisasi umat Islam dikonstruksikan melalui sekuen/babakan nara- tif dalam film ‘Tanda Tanya’. Film ini menggambarkan Islam dalam sebuah citra masyara- kat yang tradisional, tidak beradab, teroris, merusak, dan agresif. Ini menciptakan suatu pemaknaan Islam sebagai masyarakat, agama, dan nilai yang demonik dan negatif. Kata kunci: demonisasi, Islam, naratif

Abstract: The present article sought to offer a semiotic analysis of Pinter’s The Caretaker’s characters as signifers in their own right. The article also aimed at studying the play’s dramatis personae as loci of multi-coded expressions, with a focus on the various modes of signifcation associated with them. Using semiotics as an analytical method, the author explored the linguistic and paralinguistic features of the characters’ discourses as signs in relation to the play’s pivotal themes, their kinesic and body expressions as indexical signs, as well as their distinctive proxemic behavior(s) onstage. Some attention was also given to the characters’ handling of stage props and the special meanings attached to them as replicators of character personality. The results of the discussion showed that using a semiotic approach to analyze The Caretaker’s characters can yield positive outcomes in terms of comprehensive analysis and interpretation of the characters as dynamic unities of interrelated sign-systems. Keywords: Pinter, semiotics, dramatis personae, linguistic, kinesic, proxemic
