Abstract
The art of rampak kendang in Patimuan Cilacap Regency is an art that has existed for a long time and is hereditary in the people of Cilacap. In learning the art of rampak kendang, two types of plural intelligence exist and have their character in the form of visual-spatial and intrapersonal intelligence. This study aims to describe how visual-spatial and intrapersonal intelligence can form through the learning art of rampak kendang in elementary school students in Patimuan Cilacap. This research method uses descriptive research with a qualitative approach. Methods of data collection using observation, interviews, and document studies to analyze content, this study uses data validity techniques in the form of source triangulation, with data analysis techniques for data reduction, data presentation, and concluding. This study's results in the form of the formation of visual-spatial and intrapersonal intelligence are influenced by internal, external, textual, and contextual factors. Visuals spatial are formed based on understanding art through the senses, primarily through the eyes in the form of colour and space, then transforming the learning the art of rampak kendang captured by the eye into another type of recording and becoming a musical work that appears. In contrast, intrapersonal intelligence is formed with the ability to understand oneself and act based on understanding, which includes strengths and limitations of self, moods, intentions, motivations, temperament and desires, self-discipline, and self-understanding and respect. This study concludes that visual-spatial intelligence is created in the form of creating space by making floor patterns, observing and recording the trainer and then can mimic the movements of kendang, and the use of dancers 'and musicians' face makeup, and costume selection for performances. Intrapersonal intelligence appears based on listening to and playing music among musicians to create strength in oneself, calm the mood, control oneself, and be motivated so that it becomes more disciplined and more self-respecting and the environment.
