There’s a few movies that I’ve watched so many times I can basically replay them back scene-for-scene on command. If I get struck by something that reminds of some dialog, my brain suddenly starts playing the entire scene, like laying out the context of the quote.
I also figured that the memory palace concept was sort of like an ordered JSON object, so any memorized sequence should theoretically work. I’m now imagining some tool that lets me load up one of my favorite movies, but then also let’s me drop iOS or Snapchat-style stickers on any range of frames. So maybe I need to remember some recipe… At 01:00 I can place a sticker of an image of vegetable oil, then 01:05 is a salt shaker, then 01:10 is some eggs, then at 01:15 is a photo of the finished product. These stickers would be overlaid on the film conspicuously, maybe on top of character’s heads haha
This also brings to mind the possibility of making my entire world a memory palace if I had the above capability in a set of AR glasses. Notes/to-dos/whatevers could be placed and anchored to different places in my home, workplace, neighborhood, etc. They might eventually become interweaved into my mental representation of that location, so that a specific anchored item always springs to mind when I look at my coffee table, for example, whether I have the AR glasses on or not.
