Never seen the whole process. That was fascinating. Memorizing with a live audience must have been stressful. Great memory and concept.

[@abel5333]

Btw she got the inspiration because at her university she had to memorize facts using this method for her sorority.

[@sanaswift3154]

What is a sorority? Is that a subject

[@acevfx2923]

​@@sanaswift3154do you know what a fraternity is? In college and university boys and girls form 'clubs' that will organize stuff for each other. Generally you want to be in a fraternity or a sorority because it's super fun and has many great benefits, but it's not 'free'. You have to contribute and there are rituals and initiations, thus Emily had to memorize all of the Rules and code of ethics of her sorority.

[@motaotake9052]

Is this method just for numbers? Can it be use for other information or facts

[@CrunkNuts]

​@@motaotake9052you can use it for anything but simple substitutions are the easiest.

[@ghfdsgfhs8ughjnv]

​@@motaotake9052you can use it for a lot of different things the method is called mind palace or something along those lines

[@amirPenton]

15:06 her image for Kendrick is Drake’s decapitated head 😭

[@Bunnikif]

i think she graduated from colombia, shes a very smart girl, but still this is so impressive

[@chrism45]

Yeah Financial Engineering magna cum laute from Colombia. Shows that she's not just smart but also disciplined to go through with it. She only went into streaming cause of the pandemic, otherwise she'd be doing that.

[@OneDerscoreOneder]

Magna cum laude from colombia

[@Reibaku]

Colombia is a country in South America Columbia is the name of a university in New York.

[@OneDerscoreOneder]

@@Reibaku oops

[@KRIAJK]

Graduated and stated that she cheated her entire time there. So not impressive.

[@o_._o123]

Watching the whole process would be interesting for those already interested. The reason this was such a successful stream for Emily is because it was unique content for her, she'll do something completely different next stream. Also she's a bit of a clown so she's entertaining to watch even if the content is boring. Also she recognized that watching her memorize stuff for 12 hours might be boring so she turned on media-share.

[@justadudepracticing]

That's nuts. My first and only memory feat was memorizing 50 numbers in front of an audience (major system + memory palace). I'd only practiced with 20-digit numbers because I had one small "palace" ready and didn't want to risk cluttering it with practice images prior to the show. Happy to say it went well and I've always felt awesome about it. Until now. I can't believe she learned and applied a system to 1000+ numbers in one go, live. Respect.

[@kylematschke6632]

It took me 2 to 3 weeks to come up with and memorize my PAO system. She did it live in several hours. Very very impressive!

[@NelsonDellis]

crazy right??

[@LunatiqHigh]

Emily is GOAT'D, she's been my favorite streamer for a little over a year now, maybe year and a half. She's always doing weird stuff.

[@developmentallychallenged]

I would love to see videos of the process you take to learn stuff, similar to what emily did here. Being able to recite stuff is cool, but the excitement really comes in with seeing the process and the 'hero's journey' of you memorizing it.

[@jellyfish668]

I agree!!

[@bernardmithi4718]

Check his older videos....he has so much content on the subject

[@MisterBananases]

@@bernardmithi4718 He has a bit on the subject but since he also sells classes teaching the techniques, the stuff he previously uploaded never felt like the most thoroughly explained versions, sadly.

[@Phsoco]

They do that on purpose so people buy their courses.

[@developmentallychallenged]

@@Phsoco I was just responding to a question he asked his viewers in the video. He wanted to know if we would like to see it so I said yes

[@shuggarly]

i watch most of the livestream she was very descriptive and she had to start over alot but she really pushed through. Most ppl would have to watch the livestream to understand how she memorized it.

[@madarah8533]

Just shows that Emily always knows exactly what shes doing which makes her past content even funnier

[@Sonny_Black]

The insufferable people who spent literal hours in her chat accusing her of cheating when they could have seen she wasn't faking it by watching even 45min of the prior 11 hour stream..

[@janaki3829]

I'd be interested in both watching the process and more stuff like this

[@amirPenton]

6:00 crowdsourcing! Maybe?

[@ReelBigFritz]

Hive mind was what I thought he was reaching for.

[@UndeadChaos]

This randomly popped up on my page but you got a new sub. I wanted to say i think it would be very interesting seeing the process not just you doing it.

[@Jadenity]

I would be very interested in watching you learn something like this. It's like the behind-the-scenes of memory champions!

[@thomasmoore6767]

This inspired me to try for myself, though I became too impatient to do it this way and found learning hypothetical relationships between numbers worked for me, got to 150 before stopping and doing something else.

[@nausadalam5830]

Hey Nelson, I noticed that Emily uses very elaborate and specific actions and objects in her PAO system, like fighting a pirate or wearing round glasses. In your book, however, you use simpler actions and objects, like sword fighting or a sword, which leaves more room for imagination. Which approach do you think is better? Should we use elaborate actions and objects, or is it better to keep them simple and let our imagination fill in the details?

[@thengc2676]

Yes!!! I was thinking the same thing

[@Starbearymilk]

Emily is Ivy League educated and the undeniable goat 🍄

[@miEye1]

And a streamer content Queen!

[@kaileyh.5942]

watching the whole process and then watching her complete it is the best part.

[@amirPenton]

21:00 yes I find that people are definitely interested in the whole process! At least my friends are when I talk about this stuff (or they pretend to be lol)

[@EsEGu3Y]

I think it's cool to watch the process

[@apefu]

Something that makes content like this interesting for sure is the process. But I am pretty sure an integral part is to see the struggle because it makes it more relatable. From watching a lot of learning content I'd like to add failure and learning from failure. Some of the best learning content I have seen has been food related that ends in a huge failure. Sometimes the creator even gives up but with a reason.

[@NelsonDellis]

That’s a great point. So I could definitely do something like this then, it would just have to be a much more crazier level of a challenge given my abilities. Something that would be hard for me and would give me trouble (and maybe get me to fail in the end). I think you’re totally right in that people would want to see that struggle. Thanks for that thought!

[@wippok42]

Ur audio is left ear mostly btw

[@bloodblitzowns11]

had only my right ear cup on and spent like 10 minutes convinced this dude posted a 30 minute video without any sound haha

[@Niconicoshizuko]

My AirPods have been wacky lately so I thought they finally broke lol, good to know it’s not just me

[@hemligman8221]

@@bloodblitzowns11 I did the same thing for a minute, kept swapping between headset and speakers, not understanding why only the speakers worked haha

[@Fraket]

@@bloodblitzowns11lmao!

[@babyyaga2201]

Hi this is the first time ive cone across your videos. Regarding people watching final product vs process, personally i love figuring out how people do such mental marvels and would love to see process behind it for your content . Id definitely watch that !

[@fapeg]

This was cool to see you comment on this :) Would also love to see videos of you on the process

[@aspuzling]

I'd be interested to know if during a real memory challenge / performance you are allowed to make mistakes and correct them as Emily did. I think it should be allowed but just curious.

[@krusbaer11]

6:00! brainstorming was the word that came to my mind

[@imjojo9265]

21:00 it’s ALWAYS about the journey. And everything is content

[@rasmus9311]

The process is what's interesting, actually doing it is just a flex

[@user-px3nq7ow2x]

I NEED HELP As a jee student I need to memorize tons of math formulas I also prepared some memory palaces but I don't know how to turn a formula into an image so I can store it in my memory palace. Please make a video in this topic

[@scottkinne1193]

crowdsourcing is the word you were looking for

[@andypartridge800]

This is quite some feat. To do this while people are watching. I can do 500, and have set up Anki flash cards to display a 10 digit chunk so that I have to do the next 10 digits. But doing this live is pretty amazing...

[@eeevie_]

this is the first video of yours I've seen, I didn't even know this type of youtube content existed and as someone who knows hardly anything about memory artistry, it was very interesting to me to watch your reaction! I'm really annoyed right now that I have almost full visual aphantasia which is why mind palaces have never worked for me, but I'm kind of intrigued now to try and see how far I can get with the digits of pi anyway :D I have just one remark - maybe you could consider adjusting the volume with which you upload your videos. I had to really turn up the volume on this video and whenever it was interrupted by an ad, it was really jarring and it kind of hurt my ears. Might be a me problem, who knows, just wanted to tell you. Also I think people could really be interested in seeing you not only recite things but the learning process as well. This might differ depending on the audience, but a story arc can often really help to make a video more captivating :)

[@NelsonDellis]

Hey! Nice to meet you. And thanks for the comments. This was really my first time going live reacting to someone else’s video so I’m a bit new to that (hence the wonky audio. It’ll be fixed for the next one, I promise!). I really need to make a video for people with aphantasia because there is a way to do this even if you do struggle to come up with images in your mind.

[@eeevie_]

@@NelsonDellis that would be great! the way I memorized 33 digits of pi back in school and things like those 16 digit wifi passwords etc was via rhythm and what different sets of digits "feel like" to me when grouped together, but I'll wager I'm not gonna get to a thousand digits that way :D

[@skywarthur]

Hey, you seem like a nice dude, so please don't take this as criticism, it's just a tip, the audio should be louder, i had you on max volume and was still hard to listen and the AD almost blew up my ears lol

[@YuProducciones]

I agree :D!

[@sparkoceanic]

It's because the balance is off. It's mostly coming through the left channel for some reason

[@novercalis4846]

YT recommend me this video. I saw her clip on the day of. Doesnt hurt to reach out to her and maybe collab on memory stuff.

[@jdubluffy1959]

When you said what’s griddying that made me really laugh 😂

My bad. First time streaming. I’m a doof.

[@benmaitland3422]

They might not know who you are, or they might. you should collaborate with her help her with some streaming ideas. Every contact Creator would probably like your advice for memory challenges.

[@stiliyankushev8041]

My left ear liked this video

[@NelsonDellis]

I will make the next one for your right one

[@miEye1]

Cool video bro! Of our lovely ExtraEmily the content Queen. (Your microphone was only in my left ear "maybe it's on my side")

[@asddsaasdfg2846]

Even memorising the story alone is insane but I know she could do it since she has history of doing this in the past

[@xXGageXx]

Not that this means anything but she did go to Columbia University so obviously has the aptitude. This is a different animal entirely though and it is damn impressive.

[@moonrabbit2334]

Memorizing is hard and I avoid it like a plague. Luckily I am in Electronic Engineering and I don't have to memorize a lot you can just understand the topic and practice a bit to remember 90% of the stuffs you study

[@kaileyh.5942]

emily would be the only streamer to try this XD

[@AlexDrewsumin]

Yeah nah, it was the process. More emotional value. Its also very interesting and creates good reels i bet.

[@bikko3089]

Why I'm hearing he left channel

[@kobibr9362]

I can’t memorize my pants size by the time I reach the shop 😅

[@umop3plsdn]

So I found out I have aphantasia because of this. I thought people that said imagine this object didn’t really see it in their minds eye just thinking it. I found out people can actually see images with eyes closed. I see black

[@dandymcgee]

Why only left audio? I can't hear what Emily is saying even at 500% volume and I can't listen on headphones cus it's mono. :(

[@NelsonDellis]

Honestly not sure. Something setting I didn’t check on OBS when streaming. My bad.

[@GrantNolan.]

You could memorize Euler's Number

[@NelsonDellis]

Oooo that's a good idea

[@toptwitchclipz7928]

yeah, she DEFFS DID NOT CHEAT!!!! she has I am pretty sure 2 degrees from Columbia... I think its fair to say she is more then smart enough to learn this and complete it without cheating.

i mean, people find fascinating because it was her, a normal girl doing something brilliant, but if u do it, we already know u are out of ourmind, so its not that interesting to have 10k on stream

[@NelsonDellis]

yeah that's what i was thinking. Although, maybe it's relative? 1000 digits for a non-memory expert is insane. Maybe 10,000 digits for a memory expert is then interesting? Or maybe not. I don't know.
