3 Possible Paths

From the multiple concepts that I've brainstormed, I've narrowed down to my top 3 that I think would be effective in conveying my thesis.

My concepts fall into two methods: injecting science into love and injecting love into science.

Injecting Science into Love
1) Analysis of the forms in which love is articulated:
- looking at how love is articulated in various popular mediums such as letters, poems, stories, visual art, photography etc. in contemporary and traditional contexts
- deconstructing and dissecting preexisting content and providing a scientific analysis that offers a different perspective at looking at material we are familiar with and love in its entirety

2) Self-Help/Situational Advice:
- derived from observing love advice columns and love self-help books currently available
- creating situational incidents that are common in every relationship and offering a scientific analysis/scientific advice therefore content is more relatable
- rationalizing human behaviour in these incidents
- self-gathered and self-authored content

Injecting Love into Science
3) Anatomical Map:
- mapping out the human body, with particular emphasis on the human brain and showing the chemical process in the brain related to love
- then provide an emotional perspective, one that is outside the realm of science, more irrational and "romantic"
- outlining biological processes/behaviour and linking it to the feelings and actions behind love that we sometimes fail to understand
