POST DISASTER BUILDING PRESERVATION THROUGH COLLECTIVE MEMORY DEVELOPMENT IN RW 11 PURBAYAN KOTAGEDE

Abstract

Kotagede boasts numerous heritage traditional buildings, embodying its rich cultural values. However, following the 2006 earthquake, many of these structures faced deterioration due to financial constraints and neglect. This abstract explores the potential of memory collective initiatives in preserving Kotagede's architectural heritage, focusing on the abandoned Omah Kahar Muzakkir. Through a comprehensive examination of its components and historical significance, this research aims to develop a virtual reconstruction of the building. Utilizing Virtual Reality (VR) technology, the project seeks to provide an immersive experience for individuals to explore and learn about Omah Kahar Muzakkir's past. By offering an alternative means of preservation, this approach ensures that the legacy of Kotagede's traditional buildings endures despite challenges and financial limitations
