B. Methodology
This research was a hermeneutic study. Data derived from informants,
library study, written document, archive and visual data, collected using
interview, observation and documentation techniques. Informants were
selected purposively by age, sex, and social status classification, while
additional informants by age and education level classification. Data
validation was carried out using source triangulation. The data was analyzed
using an interactive model of analysis encompassing data reduction, data
display, conclusion drawing and verification.
D. Conclusion
Simulation process in Pracimayasa building comodification as the
tourist object leads to the creation of simulacrum or object or event
reproduction concerning welcoming the guest of Mangkunegaran Palace.
When the separation between sign and reality becomes confusing, it is difficult
to estimate the real things and those things simulating the real ones.
Mangkunegaran is one almost perfect model of an urban prestigious
simulation order. So simulation as honored guest in Mangkunegaran is the
form/representation of something real in the real world but represented again
in the new form and packaging. Therefore, it is true that simulacrum is defined
as the construction of imaginary thinking on a reality, without presenting the
reality itself essentially. So, the manipulation of reality drowning the
representation into simulation reducing equivalence (balance) between image
and reality (although this equivalence is considered as pseudo) is called
simulacrum. Thus, the utilization of Pracimayasa is intended not only to get
profit but also to give the public the lesson related values and customs in
Mangkunegaran environment particularly in royal guest banquet procession
with table manner, costume and good and healthy menus.
