My Experience On Home Studying During Covid-19 Pandemic.

Covid-19 pandemic has changed the lives of almost every person. Coronavirus is directly affecting the education system. Because of the pandemic all students doing quarantine, and learning at home. All studies have been online class (in Gunadarma itself it is called Virtual Class or V-class) and on my campus have changed the dates of exams and the test through online, even thesis guidance through online. My feelings about learning experiences at home are quite difficult because there are quite a lot of lecturer's tasks and I am hampered because usually the material from lecturers is not understood by me, and I am bored if I study too often at home. Moreover, if I have a lot of people at home, studying becomes unfocused. Although it's a little difficult for me, I can manage my time wisely so I can complete all the tasks well, and if I tired do not forget to take a rest, and get snacks, drink water, coffee, or whatever I need to do. I don’t know what make learning at home a lot of fun and to make me easier to learn, might be able to learn with friends (still do physical distancing), learn while listening to music, while eating snacks so that not easily sleepy, and more relaxed so as not to stress. I still respect home quarantine and stays tuned for news and I keep communicates with friends over the internet, and this helps stay calm.

The Future Of Technology - Short Paragraph

Technology can serve us best and make our lives better and technology wants to be usable and simple. Technology will continue to grow every day. Soon the technology we have now will be considered antiques and no longer be used anywhere. Some think that eventually, they will hit a point where they can't progress any further but I think as long as there is a technology we will continue to improve it. Every day new technologies emerge, ranging from mobile phones to smartphones until almost all human work can be replaced with technological tools. Technology has the greatest influence on the daily lives of people. At this time we can work and take care of personal businesses by staying at home, meeting lots of new people with technology, buying things without having to come to the store. Over the past hundred years, the biggest technological development has accelerated. And what are the technological differences in the next hundred years? can you imagine all of the world making robots and will change the future very make it easy for humans or even harm humans? I think these will happens.

EXO Planet #2: The EXO’luXion in Jakarta (2016)

My Second Live Concert Experience

EXO Planet #2: The EXO’luXion in Jakarta (2016)

Hello fellas! This time I want to story about my experience watched my lovely named EXO (hahahahhahaha) a little interlude about who is EXO? EXO (엑소) is a South Korean–Chinese boy band based in Seoul, with nine members: Xiumin, Suho, Lay, Baekhyun, Chen, Chanyeol, Kyungsoo, Kai, and Sehun. The band was formed by SM Entertainment in 2011 and debuted in 2012. Their music incorporates genres like pop, hip-hop, and R&B, alongside electronic dance music genres like house, trap, and synth-pop. And I stand them in 2012, and given the opportunity to meet them at the 2016 concert, which was actually the first concert ever held in Indonesia (Exoplanet # 1 - The Lost Planet) in 2014 but I haven't had the chance to watch it because my savings were lacked at that time (huhu so sad).

EXO just made their third visit in Jakarta, Indonesia on Saturday, February 27th to hold their second concert, The EXO’luXion in Indonesian Convention Exhibition (ICE). It’s the third times because they have been to Indonesia for SM Town concert in 2012. It’s my first time watching EXO solo concert because I didn’t watch their first tour. As announced by the promotor MCP(MecimaPro), I'm very happy because I have been waiting for that for a long time and I have prepared my savings, but I am excited by the price list, seat plan, and ticketing war. I watched EXO’luxion with four of my friends and booked tickets for Green Section.

There are 5 categories for the classifications and ticket prices:

PINK              : Rp. 2.550.000 (standing)

BLUE             : Rp. 2.250.000 (standing)

YELLOW       : Rp. 1.750.000 (standing)

GREEN          : Rp. 1.250.000 (standing)

PURPLE         : Rp. 850.000 (standing)

*Price excludes Rp. 10.000 admin fee.

At the time of opening the ticket, as I remember there were 2 choices: online or offline, and I chose to buy offline but entrust with my friends because I was at school at the time.

On the day of the concert I was still in school (hahaha) but half a day, and after school, I went to ICE BSD using the commuter line and still wearing my school uniform, after arriving at the destination station I immediately rushed to the toilet to change clothes, after I changed clothes I immediately ordered "ojek online" to ICE BSD. After arriving, I immediately looked for my friends but did not meet. I immediately queued like other people, in the first queue I was checked by prohibited luggage such as weapons, food, drinks, etc. And in the second queue in accordance with the section that we chose (myself was green) and here, I met with my friends and I can leave the queue because I have to pray for Asr, after praying and back in line, at the end of the queue there is a body checking, and after that, the ticket is scanned and likened to the identity card when we buy a ticket, after that, we get a pin that indicates which section we are in and with which queue number.

After finishing in line, we enter the concert hall and enter the appropriate section, after that the concert started around 6.30 PM and opened with a sing “Indonesia Raya” song together and the next VCR that related with their Pathcode teasers. Basically, it’s about nine objects from outer space that came to earth. The VCR stopped and the end of the maze in Overdose music video slowly opened. The eight boys of EXO (Lay didn’t present) appeared and went straight to perform Overdose. It’s an epic opening accompanied by VCR and lightning that constantly changed. They followed through History and El Dorado where EXO moved to the front stage and played with a lightsaber. I forgot the whole concert and the order of the songs list. But if I'm not mistaken, EXO Planet #2 – The EXO’luXion in Jakarta Set List:

1.      Opening VCR: EXO’luXion project

2.      Overdose

3.      History

4.      Eldorado

5.      Don’t Go

6.      Playboy

7.      Baby don’t cry

8.      My Answer

9.      The Star, Exodus, Hurt

10.  Peterpan, XOXO

11.  Lucky

12.  3.6.5

13.  Christmas Day

14.  First Snow

15.  Miracle In December

16.  Full Moon, Machine, Drop That, Let Out The Beast, and Run.

17.  Encore (Call Me Baby, Love Me Right)

18.  Promise

19.  Sing For You

20.  Unfair

I had mixed feelings at that time, I was very happy to be able to meet them and watch their concert with EXO-L (as EXO fans) directly and enjoy it. In some of our songs we dance because the songs are clubbing-happy, so there are in some of songs that I shed tears because it was sad, and there are songs that are my favorite so I sing it loudly and we all the songs sung by the fans also voiced their fan chants. Even in Indonesia, there is a project banner that says  "Terima Kasih EXO " at the last ment and "우리 꼭 !! 다시 만나요 " (We have to see each other again) at the last song, and this banner project was a success too! After Sing For You finished, we were even taken a photo together with EXO, while bringing the project banner.

After the concert, I got back together with my friends (because at the time of the concert, we separated because the atmosphere was very crowded) and there were also my friends who just met at the end of the concert because they had entered first. We made an agreement in front of the hall and took a photo for a while and bought a drink and if I am not mistaken it was 9:30 P.M.

after finishing exchanging stories of experiences in the palace earlier I was checking "ojek online" but unfortunately at that time, it was very difficult to order because of many passengers who after the concert also wanted to go home, if some of my other friends were staying at a nearby hotel, but if I may not stay overnight then I continue to go home although overnight. Long story short, I and some of my friends who came home in the same the direction we decided to order "ojek online mobil" until Depok because the commuter line at that time was closed. After that, I arrived at home at 02.00 A.M. after I got home to take a shower and there I just felt my body aches and just felt sad because after this concert I didn't know when I could meet EXO. But overall, the EXO'luXion was a great concert! EXO is my love. So grateful to know them and being a part of EXO-L, right now I miss them so much, hope I can see them again, can live their concert tour. Aamiin

Just finished the concert experience EXO Planet #2: The EXO’luXion in Jakarta (2016).  Thank you fellas! for reading, I hope you can watch live or see your idol. Spirit of saving!

Opening hours: 11am-11pm

Rating: 4/5 (by zomato)

My Review:

First of all... I am interested in visiting here because this restaurant is a "Korean Restaurant", which is I'm a Korean enthusiast. This restaurant is dominated by white and red colors. From a quite large building that also has a 2nd floor, the interior design is made simple and minimalist, and displays a clean, not forgetting the Korean element. On the first floor of the AC room there are a few benches and also a kitchen area, and to order there are also downstairs, and also on the lower floor there is a projector screen that displays some Korean girl / boy group music videos. Then, on the second floor there is also an AC room and there is also a designated smoking room, more tables on the upper floor than first floor and there are toilets and prayer rooms(mushola). Don't forget to hear the Korean music on the second floor but there is no projector screen. The location is quite strategic, close to the UI station and on the edge of the Margonda road. For car parks there is not much space, for motorcycles it can be for several. Also for the waiters here are good, polite and accommodating requests and buyers.

Second Floor

Okay move to the food menu I ordered:

1. Odeng (오뎅)

Odeng

My all time favorite menu in here! Odeng is fish cake, it is a processed seafood product made of ground white fish and other ingredients such as potato starch, sugar and vegetables. In Korea, fishcake is one of the popular ingredients, used for soup. And for the soup? very delicious! the tastes so fresh and plain (and also tasty). 

💰10k/pcs

2. Jjangmyeon (짜장면)

Jjangmyeon

Jjangmyeon is Korean style Chinese noodle dish topped with a thick sauce made of chunjang(black sauce made from sweet beans), meat, and vegetables. The tastes is tasty and a little sweet. 

💰55k

3. Rappoki(라볶이)

Ramyeon and Tteokbokki

Rappoki is a very popular fusion dish among young generation in Korea. It's a combination of Ramyeon and Tteokbokki with added vegetables and boiled egg. The ricecake texture is quite chewy and soft, a creamy, sour, savory saucesweet and little spicy, and the noodles like ordinary noodles.

💰50k

4. Original Kimbab (김밥)

Kimbab

Kimbab is a Korean dish made from cooked rice and other ingredients that are rolled in gim(seaweed) and served in bite-sized slices. Because I ordered the original kimbab, the contain of the kimbab are only vegetables such as carrots, turnips, cucumbers and eggs. For the tastes is plain if you eat kimbab without the sauce, the sauce is mayonnaise and chili chunks. 
💰35k

!!For all photos in this review captured by me!!

By the way, this restaurant is convenient for while doing task on college assignments because it's pretty quiet, more people take away or order via gra*bfood/g*food. To be honest, An.Nyeong is quite expensive but it might be reasonable for Korean food because the ingredients are quality and still fresh.

Overall, An. Nyeong is one of the best flavors of Korean food I have ever tried. It would be recommended be a place for you to eat korean food with localized taste. Will come back soon! and don't forget to invite your friends because all the food in this restaurant in big portion and you can sharing with your friend so that you can split the bills for the cheap prices and happy tummy! 

P.S: every time you order food, you will be given free kimchi

anddddd also i forgot to show you what I ordered to drink, if I'm not mistaken I ordered sweet iced tea (💰7k)

Thank you fellas! I hope you enjoy reading my review and interested coming to "An.Nyeong Korean Food Cafe".

See you in another review😃

Animasi & Desain Grafis

• Menurut Agus Suheri pengertian animasi adalah kumpulan dari gambar yang sudah diolah sedemikian rupa sehingga dapat menghasilkan gerakan.
• Penerapan atau contoh animasi :

1. Animasi Berdasarkan Bentuk Karakter

a. Stop Motion Animation/ Claymation

Jenis animasi ini pertamakali ditemukan oleh Blakton pada tahun 1906. Blakton memanfaatkan tanah liat (clay) sebagai objek animasi.

Contoh film yang memakai teknik animasi clay adalah film Chicken Run dan Shaun the sheep. Tentu saja bahan yang digunakan bukanlah tanah liat biasa tapi palasticin, yaitu bahan yang elastis/ lentur.

b. Animasi 2 Dimensi (2D)

Animasi 2D kita kenal dengan kartun (cartoon), yaitu kumpulan gambar-gambar lucu dalam film animasi untuk menghibur penonton. Beberapa contoh film kartun misalnya; Donal Bebek, Tom & Jerry, dan lain-lain.

c. Animasi 3 Dimensi (3D)

Teknologi berperan besar bagi kemajuan animasi, khususnya teknologi komputer. Animasi 3D adalah pengembangan dari animasi 2D dimana objek dalam animasi menjadi terlihat lebih hidup.

Film-film animasi yang kita lihat saat ini sudah menggunakan animasi 3D dan CGI (Computer Generated Imagery). Misalnya; Finding Nemo, Toy Story, dan lain-lain.

d. Animasi Jepang (Anime)

Film animasi Jepang (anime) sangat disukai berbagai kalangan di dunia dari segala usia. Beberapa anime Jepang yang sangat populer misalnya One Piece, Slam Dunk, Naruto, dan lain-lain.

2. Animasi Berdasarkan Teknik Pembuatannya

a. Animasi Cell

Berasal dari kata “Celluloid”, ini merupakan teknik membuat film animasi yang cukup populer. Animasi cell biasanya merupakan lembaran-lembaran yang akan membentuk animasi tunggal. Jadi masing-masing cel merupakan bagian terpisah. Misalnya objek dan latar belakangnya terpisah, sehingga bisa bergerak secara mandiri.

b. Animasi Frame

Animasi frame adalah animasi yang menggunakan rangkaian gambar yang ditunjukan secara bergantian. Contoh sederhananya, seperti saat kita membuat gambar/ objek yang berbeda-beda pada lembaran-lembaran buku, lalu membuka buku tersebut secara cepat dengan jari maka gambar tersebut akan terlihat seolah-olah bergerak.

c. Animasi Sprite

Animasi sprite menggunakan latar belakang diam lalu gambar digerakkan di bagian depan. Teknik ini adalah bagian dari animasi yang bergerak secara mandiri, misalnya seperti burung terbang, planet yang berotasi, bola yang memantul, logo yang berputar, dan lain-lain.

d. Animasi Path

Teknik animasi path adalah animasi dengan menggerakkan obyek di sepanjang garis yang ditentukan sebagai lintasan. Contohnya dalam pembuatan animasi kereta api, pesawat terbang, lain-lain yang membutuhkan lintasan gerak tertentu.

e. Animasi Vektor

Teknik animasi vektor mirip seperti animasi sprite, bedanya animasi sprite menggunakan bitmap sedangkan animasi vektor menggunakan rumus matematika untuk menggambarkan sprite-nya.

f. Animasi Spline

Teknik animasi Spline merupakan representasi matematis dari kurva, sehingga gerakan objek mengikuti garis berbentuk lurus dan berbentuk kurva.

g. Animasi Karakter

Teknik animasi karakter umumnya ada di film kartun dan juga pada film animasi 3D. Dalam animasi karakter, semua bagian dalam animasi bergerak bersamaan namun karakter setiap objek punya ciri dan gerakan yang berbeda.

• Kesimpulan : Animasi adalah suatu kumpulan objek yang disusun secara tepat sehingga gambar dapat bergerak sesuai dengan waktu yang ditentukan.

__________________________________________________________________________

• Menurut Jessica Helfand, Desain Grafis adalah “Kombinasi kompleks kata-kata dan gambar, angka-angka dan grafik, foto-foto dan ilustrasi yang membutuhkan pemikiran khusus dari seorang individu yang bisa menggabungkan elemen-eleman ini, sehingga mereka dapat menghasilkan sesuatu yang khusus, sangat berguna, mengejutkan atau subversif atau sesuatu yang mudah diingat”.
• Penerapan atau contoh desain grafis :

Desain grafis dapat menggunakan desain berbasis gambar yang melibatkan foto, ilustrasi, logo dan simbol, desain berbasis tipe, atau kombinasi dari kedua teknik tersebut. Desain ini bisa mencakup berbagai kombinasi elemen berikut.

a. Garis: Lurus, melengkung, bergelombang, tebal, tipis - bila sampai pada garis, kemungkinannya tidak terbatas. Baris memungkinkan perancang membagi ruang atau konten terpisah dalam tata letak. Mereka juga dapat digunakan untuk memandu mata pemirsa, atau membuat elemen lain mengikuti jalur strategis untuk menambah findability, agar pemirsa dapat dengan mudah dari titik A ke titik B.

b. Bentuk: Bentuk menawarkan berbagai cara untuk mengisi ruang secara kreatif, untuk mendukung teks dan bentuk konten lainnya, dan untuk menyeimbangkan desain. Bentuk bisa dibuat dari ketiadaan, menggunakan ruang putih untuk memberi desain struktur dan kejelasan.

c. Warna: Warna, atau tidak adanya warna, merupakan elemen penting dalam desain apapun. Dengan pemahaman teori warna yang solid, desainer dapat sangat mempengaruhi desain dan merek, memadukan warna dengan mulus atau dengan kehalusan yang cemerlang.

d. Tipe: Tipe bisa mengubah pesan dari sekadar teks ke karya seni. Font yang berbeda, dikombinasikan dengan keselarasan, jarak, ukuran, dan warna yang disesuaikan, dapat menambahkan kekuatan ke titik yang Anda komunikasikan ke seluruh dunia.

e. Tekstur: Bahkan iklan yang halus dan glossy bisa tampak nyata dengan tekstur. Ini memberi rasa permukaan sentuhan melalui tampilan visualnya dan menambahkan rasa kedalaman, disempurnakan dengan pemilihan kertas dan bahan yang sesuai.

• Kesimpulan : Desain grafis adalah seni keterampilan visual yang didalamnya ada fotografi, ilustarasi, tipografi, dll. Desain grafis sangat bisa ditemukan di kehidupan sehari-hari, seperti buku, bungkus kemasan, logo dan masih banyak lainnya.

1. Topologi Jaringan : berdasarkan struktur interkoneksi dari komputer
2. Model transmisian
3. Scale : berdasarkan pada distribusi secara geografis

TUGAS V-CLASS (PRETEST JARINGAN KOMPUTER PADA BASIS DATA TERDISTRIBUSI)

Soal :

1. Jelaskan konsep Jaringan dam Hubungannya  Dengan Sistem Basis data Terdistribusi

Jawab :

1. Untuk dapat saling berhubungan antar site pada sistem basis data terdistribusi diperlukan jaringan komunikasi komputer. Jaringan komputer adalah interkoneksi antara sejumlah komputer autonomous yang dapat saling bertukar informasi antara komputer yang terhubung. Bentuk komputer yang saling terhubung biasanya disebut dengan Node, host atau site. Bentuk hubungan antar komputer tidak hanya melalui kawat tembaga saja, tetapi dapat melalui serat optic, gelombang mikro dan satelit komunikasi. Komponen pokok dalam jaringan komputer adalah hardware  yang digunakan untuk saling berkomunikasi.

Distributed Basis data Management Sistem (DDBMS) dibangun pada top of network, sedemikian rupa sehingga jaringan tidak nampak pada user.  User tidak perlu tahu kerumitan pengelolaan jaringan, semuanya sudah dilakukan secara otomatik oleh sistem.

Konsep komunikasi merupakan perpindahan informasi berbantuan sistem transmisi listrik via lebih dari 1 jaringan data yang tergantung pada protokol. Komunikasi data diperlukan karena adanya pengiriman dan penerimaan data atau saling tukar infromasi jarak jauh.
