“Slamet
Gundono is one of the finest and most innovative puppeteers of his generation. On the forefront of Java's dynamic
performance scene, Gundono's work is some of the most meaningful, provocative,
original theatre today. He is a multi-disciplinary artist who draws on the long
traditions of Javanese and Indonesian culture so as to reinvent and innovate
within the field of interactive shadow puppetry. Gundono collaborates with artists from
other disciplines, and incorporates story telling, dance, film and multi-media. He also runs workshops to encourage
experimentation.”[1]
This
is a rightor smart inovation saving this masterpiece, bringing contemorary issues,
daily life about societal community, even politic and national problem.
Further, colaboration about ‘Wayang’ and other multimedia is a great
opportunity to attract young generation, and also can used as a option of
puppet shadow theatre brought to future from conventional show.
By
using contamporary issue, people as the viewer, can get a fresh story than they
are bored by puppet show about epic or mistic story. So, it may also as a way
to keep existence of ‘Wayang’. Indonesian must mor creative to keep this
heritage, by some mixing with technology we think that make puppet show will
become more interesting. By technology, especially for multimedia, will bring
‘wayang’ easier and as a new option to enjoy it.
As
the example, we can find that animation,
is a media that have very high influence to the young. So it can use as
a way to reach the young generation from beginning as a ‘Wayang’ saving
program. Or, we can make a professional show like Opera or by using more
futuristic effect, lighting that supported by human artists as the “Wayang”.
