Abstract:
The digital divide not only marks the complexity of the literary medium’s transition to the digital world but also involves wider structural issues, from critical, social, economic, and cultural practices aspects in the society. This study presents a bigger picture through a critical analysis of the space representation of Kampoeng Cyber Jogja (KCJ). The study uses the qualitative method with Henri Levebfre’s Spatial Triad theory. To find and define the relation of space with practice and society’s post-modern culture, the authors use Bourdieu and Baudrillard’s concepts on practice, distinction, and consumerism. KCJ is a complex space as well as a representation of society’s culture which must turn into a multidimensional direction. KCJ has become a production, negotiation, and resistance space. In economic practice, KCJ is a production space, uniting several aspects from the cultural products (i.e., batik), cyberspace technology usage, as well as market reading. On the other hand, it shows the space paradoxicality, capitalization, and industrial logic used by KCJ. In social practice, KCJ marks the resistance toward poverty and inequality discourse brought up by the digital divide. Culturally speaking, KCJ has become the representation and negotiation space between two cultures, traditional and modern, in resolving the digital divide which has thrived in the multidimensional society.
