    1. the capabilities for anyone to learn or do anything

      I wanna end on a positive note and create an affirmation for myself and work for the future. I have the capability to learn a new program and create an animation! As long as I continue with the mindset of growth and learning, I can do anything!

    1. It is important to plan the structure of the data, expectations for its use by researchers, and arrange for its storage from the beginning of your research.

      It is important to decipher what everything will be used for in the project, so as not to waste my time on things that are not as necessary. Maybe there are certain components to hone in on for a more interesting animation. The organization of information is just as important as the final project. I do not want to make this process of animating on Krita any harder than it has to be, so creating a storyboard, preestablished paragraphs, or a template to follow for the organization of information.

    1. 1. finding data 2. fixing data 3. analyzing the data 4. communicating the story in the data

      The creation and research for my project will follow a similar list of components. 1) Locate and find the data: I have to select artworks that I believe are rich in narrative, to allow for an expressive animation. 2) Research and collect: Find as much information about the narrative as possible, and collect as much context as I can. The more the better, as it brings more content for the story. 3) Analyze the Data and Visuals: What parts are the best for animation? What would bring the narrative to life the most? 4) Communicating the Story in the Data: Using Krita and bringing the project to light.

    1. Digital archaeology overlaps with digital humanities

      My project ties into the themes of digital humanities as well. Digital humanities is how we apply digital technologies to study culture, history and the arts. Because my project requires a lot of research with these 3 categories, my work with Krita will integrate with the concept of digital humanities with archeology.

    1. Digital tools and their use are not theory-free nor without theoretical implications. There is no such thing as neutral, when digital tools are employed.

      This is nothing but the truth! No matter how I frame the artworks through Kirta, in some way, shape or form, my own personal biases and touch get employed onto the pieces. Although I can claim that I will not try to separate any form of truth from the narratives featured in my project, just my personal decision on what to animate and what not to, changes the narrative into a personalized one. I have to be careful with my decision-making and what I choose to bring to life.

    1. You can begin using it now if you wish, but it is not necessary

      This is actually a really interesting tool I have never used before with my studies at Carleton!
