| Summary |
The Museum as Memory Palace: Memory is another form of illusion but also a tool to navigate the construct of time. Test your ability to retain and recall information you learned in one hour with US Memory Champion Nelson Dellis. You will need an imagination and a keen sense of adventure, but you have to leave pencil, paper, smart phone, and other current aide-mémoires behind. Do you want to be able to remember names at parties? Or where you last left your car keys? Or memorize The Waste Land? Attend this training by USA Memory Champion Nelson Dellis who will convert the whole museum into a 'memory palace', a powerful mental device that the ancient Greeks employed to remember oratory as well as shopping lists. Employing exotic fragrances to help anchor your memorization, and magical illusions to test them, this will be unlike any other museum experience you have ever had |
