I was recently trying to memorize some formulae-dense pages and at the same time researching on the internet ways to speed up the process. Somehow I stumbled upon this article:
Eidetic memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
And I remembered that I am renewed among my friends for being able to tell the faces of girls in every detail and recall every little defect after having seen them for just a brief while. So I told myself, instead of trying to memorize everything via words and conceptualization, why not just shooting pics of pages in my mind? I tried, and much to my suprise, it's fucking been working and helping me immensely
Eidetic memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eidetic memory as observed in children is typified by the ability of an individual to study an image for approximately 30 seconds, and maintain a nearly perfect photographic memory of that image for a short time once it has been removed--indeed such eidetikers claim to "see" the image on the blank canvas as vividly and in as perfect detail as if it were still there.
