The wind season that occurs in Tomia, Wakatobi, has an impact on the accumulation of stranded trash in coastal areas. In the past, trash was considered a treasure for the people of Tomia because they could use them to meet their daily needs. This activity is called Hedongka. However, since people's needs can be provided by buying goods at shops, residents no longer pick up trash on the coast. Hence, the stranded trash continues to pile up. A group of young people in Tomia named Katutura are trying to revive the spirit of Hedongka by recycling collected waste into collage art. Against this reason, this work aims to re-identify waste management through the Hedongka tradition. Hedongka tradition packed in an interactive animation installation based on projection mapping contains the 3R principles (Reuse, Reduce, and Recycle). This study used a qualitative approach, then continued with experiments in the work-making process. The data was obtained through visual analysis techniques, documentation, work of literature, and interviews. With the advancement of technology, utilizing a participatory, interactive media exploration can enrich the experience in Paraboshe installation. Visitors can produce different characters by scanning five scattered QR codes of waste on the sand. The result will pop up on the middle wall, with the creator’s name attached at the top of it. Furthermore, there are sensors on each wall that will trigger a bubble effect and affect the movement of each character. Thus, the Paraboshe installation can reserve an alternate way for communicating the Hedongka Philosophy more easily and appealing to the millennial generation.
