Art of Memory
 

Anybody else into this stuff? I just finished reading Moonwalking with Einstein by Joshua Foer, and its got me interested. I'm not looking to compete in the championships or memorize decks of cards in sub 2s, but more looking to figure out how I can apply this to say memorizing a speech, or large quantities of things for a test.

I've read part of the ad Herrenium but its all Greek to me. ;) Seriously though, I'm just a little foggy on how I could acutally apply the method of loci to be useful for school.

So, any suggestions?
