- I'm Ohm & I recently became aware of something called "memory Palaces" and the concept is very exciting to me. A memory palace is a "Location Based Mneomic device". The creation of memory palaces is a field of study; the use of memory palaces is a practice. The "palace" can be made from a location/object one has visited in real life & can recall all the features of; in one's mind. The image as it exists in one's mind is the palace itself. The palace is "furnished" with "Emotional Images", images that evoke an emotional response. by placing these images at distinct stations within the greater palace, as one journeys through their palace each image greets them in sequence. Setting a standard sequence allows one to "memorize" new information by representing it with images and placing them at the marked stations, upon repeating the mental journey through the standard sequence one may retrieve the stored information from it's symbolic form. varying the sequence of stops in one's journey through the palace allows for the simulation of new experiences and the attainment of new insight. inspiring new images that can store new forms of information. there's a whole bunch of details & a worldview/ontology that goes with the concept. I've seen people (Ancestral Productions) explain that the hieroglyphic system is grouped into "memory constellations" and there's a long Christrian tradition of using biblical memory palaces to internalize certain attributes and transform consciousness. They started doing this right after they took the Holy land etc. Lets talk about this plz. I'm looking at everything differently now Peace
