Gamelan Gender Wayang of Bali: Form and Style
..................~~.~.~.. ~------------------ WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY Gamelan Gender Wayang of Bali: Form and Style by Kalafya Brown A thesis submitted to the facuIty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music May, 2000 Middletown, Connecticut My teacher, Kak Luweng, and myself playing gender (above) and just sitting (below), 2 Introduction and Acknowledgements I began studying gamelan music in 1994 while I was an undergraduate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. No one tends offhand to associate gamelan with MIT. but there it is. Professor Evan Ziporyn has been directing the gong kebyar ensemble Gamelan Galak Tika at MIT since 1993, and I was an active member from 1994 until 1997. Unfortunately the pressure of my studies at Wesleyan has not allowed me to play with Galak Tika as much as I would like in the past few years. For the three years of my tenure with Galak Tika we were blessed with the artistry of the Balinese husband and wife team of I Nyoman Catra and Desak Made Suarti Laksmi. The magnificent teaching and performance prowess of Evan, Catra and Desak formed the basis of my introduction to gamelan music. In 1997 I came to Wesleyan University to study for the degree of Master of Arts in Music, of which this thesis is a part. Here at Wesleyan I have had the great honor of studying with I. M. Harjito and Sumarsam, two Javanese artists. I sincerely thank them for broadening my awareness of the multifaceted natures of Indonesian music and for sharing with me the great beauty of the central Javanese court gamelan. -
Indonesian Gamelan – an Extended Introduction
History and Cultural Background The origin story behind the Gamelan strips the orchestra right back to the most fundamental of its instruments – the Gong Gdé, or Gong Ageng. This is the largest of the gongs in a Gamelan orchestra and first appeared in Javanese mythology in roughly 167AD when Sang Hyang Guru needed to contact the gods. He constructed the gong in order to send messages, and created two smaller gongs with different pitches in order to send more complex messages. This formed the first Gamelan and to this day the gongs are fundamentally integral to the Gamelan orchestra. The hammers that are used to play a majority of the instruments are called ‘gamel’ and the suffix ‘-an’ implies ‘many’. Essentially, Gamelan means lots of hammering beats. Bali is a captivating place full of wonder and intrigue. Music is respected and entertainment in general, whilst having structure, is largely timeless. Musicians will take their cues from the dancers instead of dancers learning their pieces to the music; shadow puppet shows will be performed of well-known histories or legends, but may dwell on one idea for hours, and then wrap up the remaining story inside ten minutes if it starts to rain; celebrations may go on for several days; trees and bushes are respected and prayed for before they are cut down. The Balinese respect every living concept as part of the influence of Animism in their culture and this in turn leads to a great respect for existence. From a musical standpoint, each street or district (banjar) traditionally had a gamelan that would play against others in competitions. -

It can influence, be a catalyst for change, or further catapult the journey already started. In the absence of familiar surroundings, it can magnify what captures the eye and the emotions. All is new, exciting, and exhilarating. Both making art and traveling have opened up new experiences and challenged me in unique ways. There is so much to be inspired by—the tatmosphere in the landscape, hues and textures of a traditional market, shrines and temples, and environments of living and creating. I recently returned from my second trip to Indonesia in the last 15 months. As the experiences and inspirations linger in my subconscious, they continue to influence my artwork. My love of textiles was rekindled as a result of these travels. Fabrics abundantly adorn shrines and temples, are used as offerings, typify ceremonial dress, and are displayed as consumer goods. I am inspired not only by the beauty of the fabrics, but also how they function in a society where art, life, and spiritual- ity are all connected. Nowhere is this more evident than in Bali. -
Connecting Orff Schulwerk and Balinese Gamelanаа
Connecting Orff Schulwerk and Balinese Gamelan CAIS Workshop presented by Elisabeth Crabtree, March 9, 2015 e[email protected] or e[email protected] What is Gamelan? Gamelan refers to a set of Balinese instruments that form up a percussion orchestra (metallophones, bamboo xylophones, gongs, drums, other percussion, and the bamboo flute). It also refers to the style of Balinese music that is played upon the instruments. There are over 30 different types of Gamelan, with various tunings. Gamelan groups perform music to accompany dancers, masked dancers (topeng), and puppet shows (w ayang). There are also “sitting pieces” that are just for listening. The music can be both secular and sacred. Why Teach Gamelan? ➢ Translates easily to Orff Instruments, recorder, and small percussion ➢ Uses cycles and ostinatos, music like the elemental style of Orff ➢ Offers opportunities for differentiated instruction ➢ Teaches cultural awareness and diversity ➢ Has direct applications to many 5th grade California State Standards ➢ It has influenced many composers such as Debussy, Satie, Lou Harrison & others ➢ It’s fun and enjoyable! Students love it and remember it many years later Warm Up Hocket Game 123 (ClapStompSnap) ● With a partner, trade off counting to three. Groups of three are no good for this game. ● Add a clap every time someone says “one.” Next add a stomp for “two” and finally a snap for “three.” Celebrate if you make a mistake, and start again. ● Variation: take out the words and only do body percussion ● Celebrate whenever you make a mistake and try again, increasing the speed ● Point out the pattern: The person who starts says “132” and the second person says “213.” ● Final practice phase, two large groups performing the body percussion piece in hocket Hocket Game: Speaking a Rhyme Tell a nursery rhyme with a partner; alternate each person saying a stanza or phrase. -

Design and Developement of Semi Automatic Canting Tool (Body Design and Mechanism)
DESIGN AND DEVELOPEMENT OF SEMI AUTOMATIC CANTING TOOL (BODY DESIGN AND MECHANISM) MOHAMMAD MUAZ BIN NORDIN Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Bachelor of Manufacturing Engineering Faculty of Manufacturing Engineering University Malaysia Pahang JUNE 2012 vi ABSTRACT This thesis deals with the design and developement of new tool for making batik. The process of making batik are of two method, batik canting (hand drawn batik) and batik “chop” (batik stamp). Conventionally, in batik canting process, the molten wax are drawn onto fabric using a wooden, copper sprout tool which known as the “canting” or “tjanting”. Since Malaysia government are serious in promoting the industry of batik internationally, and there is need to strengthen the Small and Medium Industry (SME) of Malaysia, this project then is carried on. The main purpose of the project are to design and develop a new semi automatic canting tool. The term semi automatic is subjected to the combination of several processes in batik making process into a single tool. The idea is to have tool that enable the electrical heating and the drawing process done simultaneously. This will eliminate the process of conventional heating process using stove and the process of transferring the molten wax into the canting tool before the drawing process started. This study started by collecting all the information related to batik making process such as the canting tool, the steps on producing batik, and also the raw material related to batik making process. The information are collected through visit and also interview session. -
