Wayang kulit rose and became the prima donna through the play of the character Bagong by Ki Seno Nugroho on social media. This article aims to analyze the role and meaning of Bagong in the play of wayang kulit by Ki Seno Nugroho through a semiotic approach. Ki Seno Nugroho can bring the character of Bagong to life, not only playing a comedic role but also voicing social criticism and the values of people's wisdom. Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis method examines data in the form of signs and meanings formed in dialogues, gestures, expressions, and scenes involving Bagong. This method consists of two levels, namely denotation (literal meaning) and connotation (cultural and ideological meaning). The semiotic approach was chosen because of its relevance in unraveling the layers of meaning of a cultural text to reveal deeper cultural and ideological implications as well. The data source was taken from the video documentation of Ki Seno Nugroho's performance on the Dalang Seno YouTube channel with the plays Bagong Ratu and Semar Mbangun Kayangan. The results of the analysis show that (1) Bagong plays a role as a representation of the common people, (2) Bagong serves as a medium of symbolic resistance to social inequality, and (3) Bagong serves as a communicative and entertaining conveyor of local wisdom. This study confirms the position of Punakawan as an important narrative device in the play of Javanese puppetry.

Power efficiency and real-time performance are two essential aspects in the development of Internet of Things (IoT) systems, especially for temperature monitoring applications operated continuously with limited energy resources. This study aims to compare two widely used microcontroller platforms—ESP32 and Raspberry Pi Pico W—in the context of an IoT-based temperature monitoring system using the DHT22 sensor and Wi-Fi communication. A quantitative experimental approach was employed, including measurement of average power consumption, system response time, and initial booting time over more than 100 operation cycles. The results show that Raspberry Pi Pico W consumes significantly less power (90 mA) than ESP32 (160 mA). However, ESP32 outperformed in real-time response, recording an average latency of 240 ms, while Pico W recorded 310 ms. Pico W also demonstrated faster boot time (950 ms) compared to ESP32 (1500 ms), which is beneficial in deep sleep scenarios. These findings highlight a trade-off between power efficiency and system responsiveness. This study contributes practically by providing a technical basis for selecting suitable microcontroller platforms based on application-specific needs. The results may serve as a reference for developing energy-efficient and responsive embedded systems, particularly in agriculture, healthcare, and smart home sectors.

The maritime industry, traditionally reliant on intuition and experience-based decision-making, is undergoing a transformation with the increasing adoption of digital marketing strategies. However, the epistemological foundations of this transition remain underexplored, particularly in the context of leadership and strategic decision-making. This research examines how maritime leaders, lecturers, and postgraduate students perceive and integrate data-driven marketing strategies into maritime business management. The study provides original value by addressing the gap in maritime leadership research regarding digital marketing epistemology. Unlike previous studies that primarily focus on technical adoption, this research critically analyzes the philosophical and cognitive frameworks influencing digital marketing decision-making. The primary objective is to explore the extent to which digital marketing decisions in maritime leadership are guided by empirical data rather than intuition. Using qualitative research and descriptive analysis, semi-structured interviews were conducted with maritime experts, lecturers, and postgraduate students. Data were analyzed thematically, categorizing responses into competency development, sustainability, and digital transformation barriers. Findings reveal that while data-driven strategies are acknowledged as valuable, traditional leadership models still dominate. Digital marketing adoption is constrained by limited expertise, regulatory challenges, and skepticism toward analytics. The study concludes that bridging this gap requires integrating epistemological inquiry into maritime education and fostering collaboration between industry and academia. Strengthening digital literacy among maritime leaders is essential for ensuring the sustainable and strategic use of digital marketing in the sector.
