Great figure of European music: Debussy was surprised with the way gamelan music work. It’s totally different from standard European/Western music back then.

There are variety of musical instruments in gamelan as well as freedom atmosphere with non linear rhythms.

Gamelan is not only Javanese and Balinese properties. It seemed gamelan was kinda the popular music of Indonesia in the past.

Indonesia, Hindia Belanda / Dutch East India / Mataram / Majapahit, whatever the modern Indonesia was called.

In 1950s to 1960s there was another Indonesia’s touch in western music: “Indo Rock” that was renamed to be Rock n Roll music.

Nowadays, Indonesian music becomes sort of ‘Beatlemania’ to the world.

‘Beatlemania’…? Is it exagegerated? You decide.

I’ve got a 150 cm of measurement tape. So to diagnose 1° of sin limit & tan limit as well as 1° of Phew arc length, I set r = 8000 cm.

The description of 1° diagram is as follows:

Neck length = 1-cos1 = 1.2 cm

Tan limit = 2tan(1:2) = 139.6 cm

Sin limit = 2sin(1:2) = 139.6 cm

Phew’s 1° of arc length = 140.9 cm

You may say Tan limit is bigger than Pi’s arc length. Nice try, but what you measure is a straight line, or chord ~ NOT arc.

With the neck’s length = 1.2 cm, both tan limit & sin limit = 139.6 cm, and Phew’s arc length = 140.9 cm… Does Phew’s arc length make sense???

WHO SAYS NO? 🤣✌️

This is a common thing among foreigners visiting Indonesia. The time to return home country is a sad experience.

Translation by Grok:

A Call of the Heart That Cannot Be RefusedInitially,

No one thought that the journey of this Dutch foreigner would end in tears. This foreigner has actually come to Indonesia several times. But strangely, every time she comes back, there’s always a new reason that makes her fall in love even more. In every place she visited, there were always different stories, experiences, and beautiful memories. In addition, the friendliness of the Indonesian people, which she said was so sincere, made her feel even more comfortable in this country. However, in the end she had to leave Indonesia to return to Europe. As she packed her things, her emotions broke out. She could not hold back her tears because she thought this country was too beautiful to leave. For her, Indonesia is no longer just a place for vacation. Many experiences in this country have slowly shaped her into the person she is today. She had indeed planned to return after 3 months. However, it turned out that after only 1 month in Europe, she could no longer hold back her longing. And when she returned to Indonesia, her face was cheerful again. She can joke with local residents and enjoy the beauty of this country.

Variety of cultures are among what tourists love about Indonesia: traditiional cloths, ethnic music, handicrafts etc.

Various girls from all over the world, either locals and foreigners, love Javanese guys and regard them as ‘future ideal husbands’. Those guys probably don’t feel handsome, wealthy, or such. but those girls are interested to Javanese guys’ gentleness, politeness, care, patient, in short: things that make those girls feel joy and safe.

How about Javanese girls? The same. They are also wanted by guys from any ethnic and nationality. Generally, Javanese character is known as tender, sincere, low profile, and … funny

On August 17th, 2026. This is a new phenomenon, the new tourist attraction. Will you join someday?

Organic fruits are everywhere, and of course the prices are cheap for your dollar, euro, yen, won etc.

At fruit stores, there are imported fruits such as apple, grape, kiwi, orange etc. but local fruits are majority.

At cities, at villages, no problem. New experience matters.
