Abstract

Human-computer interaction has been the cause of the emerging innovations in many fields, including in
design and art, arc hitec tu ral, techno logical a rtifac ts, and even tradi tiona l heritage. In the case of I ndonesian
traditional heritages, the computation of fractal designs has been introduced to develop batik design - the
genuine tex tile art and skill that becomes a symbol of I ndo nesian cul tu re. The uniqueness of Batik, which
depicte d in the richness of its mo tifs, is regarded as one of inte resting aspect to be researche d and innovated
using computat ional techni ques. Recent stud ies of batik motifs have discovered conjec ture to the existence of
fractal geome try in batik designs. This fi nding has given some inspi ratio n of imp lementi ng cer tain fractal
concep ts, such esca pe-time fracta l (com plex plane) and iterate d fu ncti on system to gene rate batik mo tifs.
We develop motif gene rato r based upon the Co llage Theorem by usi ng Java TM platform. This sof tware is
equippe d by interface tha t can be used by user to gene rate basi c pat terns, which cou ld be i nter prete d and
painted as batik motif. Experimentally, we foun d that compu tatio nally genera ted fractal motifs are
approp riated to be implemen ted as batik motif. However, human made batik motifs are less detail and some
of them diffe r signif icant ly with the comp utati onally generate d ones for to ols used to draw batik and human
aesthetic const rain ts.

Keywords: batik, fractal, mo tif generator, human compu ter inte racti on
