Listen "Memory Palace"
Episode Synopsis
A Memory Palace is a technique for memorizing long lists of names or places by associating each list item with an object in your imaginary “memory palace”.
This is derived from the method of loci developed in ancient Greece and Rome. Many composers have been inspired by this technique and have written pieces with this title.
