- Abstract
The double-ikat weaving technique only exists in three places in the world: Indonesia, India, and Japan. In Indonesia, the only place that practices double ikat weaving technique is Tenganan Pegringsingan village in Bali, which produces Gringsing textiles. The process of creating Gringsing textile is laborious and time-consuming; both the warp and the weft threads must be patterned and dyed independently prior to weaving. Hence, a detail calculation is required to match the pattern in the warp and the weft. To understand and document the calculation or computation on creating Gringsing textiles, ethnography research methodology along with visual computation analysis are involved. The researcher interviewed, observed, and participated with the activities of creating Gringsing textiles on-site, then analysis the data with visual computation to complement the ethnographic study. This study can be used as documentation for Tenganan Pegringsingan village specifically and other scholars generally. Besides, this research introduces a sequential method of ethnography and computation to investigate a hidden computation on other traditional textiles.
