The technique known as the memory palace (or as Mindstore's "house on the bank") was depicted in the BBC series 'Sherlock' in "The Hounds of Baskerville", where Holmes uses his "mind palace" to seek important facts and associations in his memory relevant to the case. Just what this "palace" is and how it can be applied is detailed in this TED talk
by Joshua Foer.

Great minds and all that Scott ...!
I've seen this before and took the opportunity to watch again when I saw it on your blog.
Such a good piece and the part about how we tend to 'outsource' our memory to all kinds of modern devices is an interesting observation.
I enjoyed it equally as much second time round. Thanks!
