Tari Topeng Malangan merupakan seni pertunjukan tari tradisional dengan latar
belakang religius yang tumbuh disekitar masyarakat daerah Malang, Jawa Timur.
Saat ini keberadaan sanggar kesenian tari Topeng Malangan sudah mulai sulit
ditemukan. Selain sulitnya menemukan sanggar tari Topeng Malangan termasuk
di daerah asalnya, juga minat masyarakat khususnya remaja di daerah Malang
untuk mempelajari tarian ini semakin jarang. Hal ini mengakibatkan semakin
terpuruknya kesenian ini dan kalah dengan ragam pertunjukan modern. Dalam
mempelajari tari Topeng Malangan, kegiatan pembelajaran tari secara
konvensional membutuhkan tempat belajar khusus, yaitu sanggar tari yang
umumnya jauh dari pusat kota Malang. Untuk mengatasi hal tersebut, diperlukan
media pembelajaran yang dapat digunakan sebagai solusi alternatif untuk
mengenal dan mempelajari tari Topeng Malangan, salah satunya menggunakan
metode simulasi dengan memanfaatkan teknologi dan edukasi. Fokus
pembelajaran gerak tarian adalah tari Topeng Patih yang memiliki struktur solah
baku yang secara konsep merupakan abstraksi seluruh gerak baku pada tokoh
Topeng Malangan yang lain. Hasil dari perancangan ini adalah media interaktif
simulasi mengenai pembelajaran gerak dasar tari Topeng Patih dengan
menggunakan media kinect.
Kata kunci: media interaktif, pembelajaran, tari Topeng Malangan
