Abstract :
In many traditional societies in Asia, storytelling shows have been used to promote reflection. These shows, including Wayang Kulit (a traditional form of Malaysian theater), are slowly disappearing because of a lack of interest from the younger generation. Here the authors discuss their efforts to preserve Wayang Kulit with digital multimedia technologies.
