The last time talking with Will in class, he mentioned the word “existentialism”. I found it to be a great starting point for my exploration in my thesis project.

My question about life is always “why do we exist?” The inevitable decay of life frustrate and confuse me, and I have no way getting out of it.

Through this mindmap exploration, I realized I really want to do something related to the “reactivity”(another way of interpreting decay) of substances. This reminds me of the explosive reactivity I’ve witnessed in some of the chemistry experiments back in undergraduate and high school. Looking into those, and revisit thermodynamics are going to be my first step.
