In a way, I also take a lote of notes that I never read back, but the actual process of taking the time to write it makes it easier to remember.
If it works the way, when you take a photo, even if you don't look it back, the fact that you did take the time to photograph a moment may ease to remember it.
just my 2 cents of pseudo-science
- trelltron 11y agoI think writing notes helps us remember things because we're concentrating on the information being recorded, and because in order to record it we are forced to create a well structured representation of that information which will also be easily remembered. However, when I take a picture, I'm mostly concentrating on the camera and the spacial aspect of what I am photographing (getting it into frame), which doesn't help me remember any of the details, which are the genuinely important bit. I do like your explanation though. I wouldn't be surprised if people who are more (for lack of a better word) artistic than myself, focus more on the details as part of the photo-taking process, and so retain those details better.
