For the new term, we needed to come prepared with our learnings and insights from Design Dialogues; so that's what I did. I added some new things to my design space, along with a new mindset for moving forward. I feel important to include the Atlas of weak signals as well (with a strong focus on the yellow post it's on the bottom) because I believe these insights/topics correctly convey what I want to explore on this term. I'll take them as idea generators.
One of the last few exercises I did was a semantic breakdown of what I wanted to achieve with my research. By this I mean breaking down the phrase by individual words and figuring out what I actually mean by them.
This is the phrase I started out with:

After doing a lot of analysis and asking myself a lot of questions:
The final focus I chose for my research is:
How can I show the link between processed food and gut health, and how that link impacts our collective wellbeing.
