  • 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.
