I conducted research on the similarities and differences between computer memory and human memory. I got some information from a cognitive neuroscientist Daphna Shohamy's publication.

The concept that "memory is the bridge between the past and the future" intrigued me. Can it be understood that our decisions are always based on past experiences, implying that to some extent, our future is predetermined? This reminded me of my mother's advice: "Don't always think about how you will act in the future; if you don't do it now, you probably won't do it later." I then looked into the concept of self-fulfilling prophecies—where thinking about something happening repeatedly influences the mind, leading it to actually happen—and theories related to how memory influences decision-making.

At this point, I felt that my desktop research had covered various aspects of memory. However, I still lacked a specific theme. I organized all the content related to memory that I had thought about and summarized it, identifying three broad directions.

After reviewing these, although I liked all three, I found myself most interested in the theme of "getting to know oneself more comprehensively" In light of this, I brainstormed some test content. I particularly liked the quote from "The Congress": "You see the darkness because you chose the darkness." I felt this phrase symbolized the inner workings of every individual. I thought about creating tests involving ambiguous images, allowing participants to interpret what they see. There are many subconscious test images that serve a similar purpose. Another idea was to organize a workshop with several segments, and after ten days, inquire about which segments participants still remembered—what they remember often reflects the content that can evoke past memories.

However, due to the abstract nature of these questions and the fact that some content would require individuals with knowledge of psychology to navigate successfully, I ultimately did not implement these ideas.
