Harnessing Memory Palaces for Visualization

Memory Palaces and Magic Ahh... the power of imagination combined with fixed

locations. Magic is interesting in that it uses a lot of active visualization as

a way of caging energy to a fixed space. But adding the power of a memory palace

allows for that visualization to further anchor energy to a physical location.

Some might be ignorant of what a memory palace is in the first place, so a little exposition

is in order. A memory palace is one of the oldest memorization techniques known to man.

According to legend Simonides of Ceos used it to identify the dead following an earthquake killing

the members of a banquet. Picturesque, but the method itself is simple.
