The art of memory: Daniel Kilov at TEDxMacquarieUniversity

Hav­ing strug­gled with orga­ni­za­tional skills as a symp­tom of his poor mem­ory all through high school, Daniel sought out meth­ods to improve his mem­ory. It was then that he dis­cov­ered the "Art of Mem­ory", a loosely asso­ci­ated group of mnemonic prin­ci­ples and tech­niques used to orga­nize mem­ory impres­sions, improve recall, and assist in the com­bi­na­tion and 'inven­tion' of ideas. These tech­niques are some­times referred to as mnemotech­nics, and are employed by mem­ory ath­letes to per­form remark­able feats of learning.
Shortly after­wards, Daniel sought out Australia's most suc­cess­ful mem­ory ath­lete, Tansel Ali. Daniel was trained pri­vately by Tansel and at the 2011 Aus­tralian Mem­ory Cham­pi­onships Daniel man­aged to secure sec­ond place behind his coach and men­tor, and third place in the com­pe­ti­tion over­all. He also broke the Aus­tralian record for the abstract images event and is the offi­cial holder of that record, hav­ing mem­o­rized the order of 99 abstract shapes.
Daniel now espouses the value of mem­ory tech­niques as a poten­tial rev­o­lu­tion in edu­ca­tion, both in the tra­di­tional sense of the word and, because as a mat­ter of his­tor­i­cal fact, the art of mem­ory formed the cor­ner­stone of edu­ca­tion from the time of the Ancient Greeks, up until the renais­sance. When we use mem­ory tech­niques, we revolve back to the ancient and effec­tive art of learn­ing, mem­o­riz­ing and composition.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

WOW! I memorized in minutes what i tried to memorize for years.... so I am not stupid after all - the school system really needs to get looked at - they do make learning harder that it needs to be.

[@shivdmanwii]

The lack of views on this talk is absolutely ridiculous. Do people simply not realize the potential here? Imagine the possibilities this has. Doctors and other specialized skill sets could be trained in less time with no risk to life. The reason it takes so long to train specialized skill sets is because they cannot afford to make the slightest of mistakes in their recall of information or the application of it. By simply teaching memory(and creative thinking as a by product) in school, education and the entire world could be revolutionized. As the speaker said, this is an idea worth sharing. By simply teaching people how to recall information better, education itself can be shortened significantly.

+TheAnomaly Silly goose, if we were all capable of learning rapidly and effectively, Universities wouldn't make hundreds of millions off an essentially useless service. The government wouldn't make hundreds of millions off packing children into overcrowded schools where they learn nothing and get abused by burnt out teachers and peers from broken homes. We would have a happier, more intelligent and more cooperative empathetic society, and that my friend is very very very bad business.

[@sabinalee9]

What is amazing to me, is that as a young child, a toddler, I somehow picked up on my own that this was how to memorize. I won spelling contest constantly and where I lacked in other classes, I depended on memory to get through school. I swear no one at the time taught me; I was mostly alone, and at school, as Daniel has pointed out, we were taught rote memory. In the last few years, maybe more, I have realized I have the worst memory then that of the average person. I started watching Ted, specifically on memory so that I could learn how to memorize again. The best part was realizing I was a pretty smart kid since I knew to do this naturally. But here's the problem. Maybe it's because I am going through one the worst moments and time in my life. My mother's death from cancer and a divorce that has lasted 5+ years, but when I tried to practice what I have relearned on TED Talk, my brain screamed, "I still can't do it!" and I realized my brain has become LAZY. I also realize, I need the sharpest memory NOW because of the SOCs and SCs, and recently found out he's taking me to trial There is also the fact that my relatives have passed with Alzheimer disease, all on my father's side. I can only hope that my energy will come back and my laziness in my brain will disappear. It would really be nice what I had come up with on my own can come back again.

[@learningenglishpath8148]

The mind needs to have the time and energy to properly grieve. The grieving process isn't just a cultural phenomenon - it is something that all human beings need to allow for. If you skip the grieving process (your mother's death and perhaps your divorce as well), then this will cause an energy blockage. This energy blockage naturally makes it intensely difficult for you to efficiently use your memory or to use your brain in the other marvelous capacities it has. I hope since you wrote this message you have allowed yourself time for this grief to flow through you and clear any blockages - but if not, it's never too late.

[@jippehiemstra]

damn thats a tough story, I sincerely hope that you are in a better place now

[@5crownsministries]

Outstanding talk. Great topic and great example. The exhortation is a real one, that I believe will begin to change the next generation of memory, education, and learning for the next generation. I hope to share this with all my younger ones--my nieces, nephews, and youth groups. Great talk.

when it comes to memory,each one of us has his own capacity as well as the way he memorize things. some of us use images others have to write so that they can memorize. while other use listening...but all of them needs practice. I think the best way to improve your memory is to practice more different exercises. while using a variety of exercises you will be able to improve your memory skills.

this makes me feel like a genius :D THANKS MAN

[@dimitrismichail7435]

Generally, humans' most vivid memories are the ones that were filled with either positive or negative emotions. This is why most of us recall the best or the worst memories of our past but not our daily past routine days. Therefore, if you do want to memorize something, it is good to try and use emotion throughout this process. (My view)

From here on, we'll never forget the order of the planets.

[@kadenmuckey9052]

It kind of reminded me of Brandon Sanderson's 'Legion' where the main character created beings to represent specific subjects.

[@AndyWJP]

Great talk, it was easy to remember the order of the planets. Currently I am using this method to remember Japanese vocabulary but it is difficult or near impossible to associate some of the word sounds with English, The same must apply with say Chinese. Then a coding technique may be required to map vowel sounds to English words. But then, the process of extracting the translation is too complicated.

[@snackmasterb]

I liked Daniel's speech and his point about returning these concepts as foundational elements of our education. I'm trying to research ways to improve my memory for things that I am reading (I feel like there's so many topics I'd like to learn, but that I read too slowly and can't apply the materials, because they're not ingrained in my memory enough - which is one of Daniel's points). I also am looking for approachess to help my girlfriend, who is studying three languages (one of which is Chinese) and she's having challenges remembering all her subjects' material. If anyone has anything tha that has worked for them, would love to hear it! Cheers

[@awnishraj5267]

so the point is make a story of things you wanna learn..but now the question is there are so many things you want to remember .. how are you gonna remember those stories and the topics they connect with ??

[@jchinckley]

By the time you can remember what the story is about you won't need to remember the story because your brain will have made the necessary connections. It is a matter of practicing the techniques frequently and rather than just a story you should make the story as ridiculous, outrageous, and exaggerated as you possibly can. Doing these things will strengthen your memory and go a long way toward actually making your default memory even better than before you started using the techniques. Your memory is essentially infinite. Anything you can learn you can remember unless you decide you don't need the memory any longer. What this means is that if there is something you really want to remember you should review it from time to time throughout your life. Don't learn it and then think you can ignore the subject and then remember it twenty years down the line. It won't happen - at least not easily. Really all these techniques do for you is organize your memories to make them more accessible. Your mind actually remembers every detail of your life from birth, you just can't consciously remember all of that information because it isn't necessary. But practicing memory techniques will allow you to access more of your memory than you ever could before using them.

[@PatrickSullivan-6462266133]

Although this is not the best presentation by story, it does work, & there are dozens of better models. The majority of the comments show so many who will never be able to retain large amounts of data, let alone ever even understand any of it. It is amazing they show their lack of focus, if not lack of memory, by their comments. Anyone who is offended personally by this comment, should watch the video again, imagine you can learn this.

[@himanirk2838]

Actually it indeed is a great technique but it is quite time consuming and more over it needs lots n lots of practice...so if u r studying for exam..n going to use this technique..make sure u ve enough time to create it.. And as for me....it is very hard to just create those images especially the vivid ones

[@robroy25]

To put it simply...your brain relates to images easier than words or names, So if you can relate a word or name to an image, the more bizarre the better, you remember the image, then re-relate it to the word or name it represents.

[@Kre8or333]

Loved this, but how does it work for something like learning a new language? Or where do I get the info he's talking about?

[@Truthiness231]

Well, considering the method here (visualizing what you want to remember, as that's what our brains are best at storing) and what it is you're after (applying it to learning a language), I'm quite certain that this TED video will get you going on the right path, it gives a great example of using this exact same memory method applied to learning Chinese: watch?v=troxvPRmZm8 (it was lucky as all unbelievableness that I seen this video last night and your question tonight; given a week it'd probably not have dawned on me that there was a perfect answer for your problem).

[@Truthiness231]

Oh BTW this is just learning the written part of a language, but I'm pretty sure that's the harder part (over learning the phonetic end) and it's probably not how the brain is going to want to store speech anyway. I don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure the phonetic part is going to go into "muscle memory", which I'd think is necessary to speak fluently anyway (just an educated guess though; I'm a programmer/designer, not a psychologist ^.^).

[@RCbeastly]

[@johndoe-od8zi]

Lucas Trugeda nope I got it to in the beginning

[@ShaikhMohammedYunus]

why is it like all tedx videos on memorization are not actually containing any real blueprint to practice

[@brose2k]

The blueprint is to be creative with your learning process. Make a story, make a song, etc.

[@soinlove8306]

+Shaikh Mohammed Yunus I think the speakers want you to check out their book or blog or whatever.

[@josephfernando4867]

I guess you didnt hear the planet memorization example he demonstrated

[@jchinckley]

I would suggest a couple of things... 1) You could watch all of the TED talks dealing with memory and perhaps take notes. Then using what they've talked about and your notes create your own blueprint for practice. This is actually more effective than if you're just given one because it involves your own brain in the process, and also because you did it yourself it is customized and tailored to you. This also involves what brose2k mentioned: your creative processes. 2) You can also go to the library and look up both memory and mnemonics and you will find a plethora of books about this subject nearly all of which have a "plan" for you to practice these techniques. All you have to do is avoid procrastination and laziness and do what they say to do.

[@wlkf.727]

I agree. Why don't the government implement real "useful" programs for students these days? How about teach them how to memorize effectively? how to read food labels so you can better your health? how to become financially free by using debt to create wealth instead of poverty?

[@Bruce_Gruesome]

WLK F. Because financial and intellectual freedom would undermine the need for a central government. Government has a stake in keeping you and its voter base in a constant state of need. Maybe I sound grim, but government does nothing but make itself bigger. In a truly free society, the government is small, and its citizens are able to live a life without it. Sorry, but a world like this is not one that would allow for something like government, all that government is is an investment for rich corporations.

[@manictiger]

+Joseph Grenner You think they'd at least teach you how to do your taxes.

[@brandonwayne1998]

It's so odd that in the state of California your regular High-schools are not taught this however Secondary education or an alternate education teaches kids taxes, averages, negotiation of prices things that matter in the real world.

[@jchinckley]

I agree with Joseph Grenner for the most part. Although I think we could change this and bring back that smaller government by getting our schools and colleges, etc., to actually teach things like reasoning, logic, finances, memory, and the best ways of how to learn new information. That is how we came to our current condition. Those "powers" that be that he referred to (in other terms) sent teachers and professors to teach us how to be less intelligent, to teach us outright lies in some cases and generally dumb down the American population so we would be easier to control. Say I'm a conspiracy theorist all you like, but I believe we're headed toward another civil/world war because of ideological differences between different "factions" of our society which are fomented by the wealthy elite who think that this will keep us off balance and them in control of everything. If they succeed we will be no more than slaves regardless of race or skin color.

[@88infinitys]

I have to view it in black and white in my head to memorize FAST. Colour and certain formatting completely foils me for some reason??!! IDK .. Anyone else experimented with their memory and method?

[@gulfmeadows]

I'm sure certain things help people more than others.

[@dankilov]

Good question. It is all about practice. As you become more proficient with the techniques, you will find yourself able to include more sensory information in your story. For me, the last sense I learnt to employ in my stories was smell. You can find other talks and articles I have written, absolutely free, on my website: Danielkilov.com. As another poster mentioned, most of these techniques can be found online.

[@silvercord2018]

***** Daniel did u memorize this speech?

[@88infinitys]

actually to be more specific i like paper and pen ink the best if i'm memorizing a speech or something with exact terms, Usually I then write whatever it is down and back it up by saying it out aloud

[@sherlockholmeslives.1605]

I already know the order of the planets from the sun!

[@XnohbodyX]

Like the idea, but it feels like he didn't prove his two points, and I'm still trying to understand the technique. Is it just that you create a story for everything you memorize? Or is it associating the object of memorization with particularly strong cues? Still not sure how in the world this would work with learning a language and most other memorization tasks.

[@tauceti8341]

how exactly would the be applied to learning a language? I could see this being used for a grocery list, but not so much for a language.

[@jackpenkethman7101]

by the word meaning, and the phonetic sound and anything else you can use to strengthen the word and association (past experiences all 5 senses etc). So take the french word for father, "pere" for this I would picture my dad in front the Eiffel tower eating a pear, I also imagine the smell of a pear. this might not be the best explanation so I suggest you research 'mind memory matrix' Btw It's not easy to begin with, it takes work and practice

[@tauceti8341]

jack penkethman Thank you, that example was actually very nice and will definitely get some insight on how to apply it. I will definitely research memory matrix. I already have some ideas brewing as far as word association goes. Much appreciated, cheers ^^

[@brentporadish4181]

jack penkethman Question Jack: When recalling the word “pere” do you also recall this picture you have presented to yourself or does your mind recall the word without this picture. Or both?

[@jackpenkethman7101]

this is gonna sound weird, but if all roads (thought pathways) lead to the destination (pere) then you will always find it, so using all the senses like sight, sound, touch etc even word association, are all different ways/pathways of remembering. So not just both, the more the merrier....Mind Memory Matrix! check it out!

[@jackpenkethman7101]

I wish he had used another subject. Nearly everyone knows the "My very educated mother just served nine pizzas" mnemonic for the plaets. So I'm not completely sold.

[@CrazyRussian47]

+CJLabay1 what he was getting at is to make something important that you need to memorize personal. Not everyones moms are very educated and/or serve nine pizzas so perhaps that method would be harder to remember for some people especially kids. I know its just the first letters of the words that then leads to mercury, venus etc. etc. but thats exactly what he is trying to teach you to do with out. Dont think of the planets as that specific phrase but make up your own so you remember it faster and easier because it is personal to you that way you dont even have to think of the phrase it just comes to you naturally and right away without even saying the phrase you shoot off from mercury, venus, and so on.

well it's like I always say. Oops i forgot it now. But, I always say it tho.

[@sweetheartbreaker09]

Yeah, but how does it work with medical terms?

[@owaisamin1743]

well , it works. eg , ploto ( which he mentioned ) sucking an ice cream cone can be used to memorize ''oto'' from ploto and ''sclerois'' from sucking . it makes otosclerosis.

[@sweetheartbreaker09]

Believe me. It does not work all the time with all the medical terms, and all the drugs we have to memorize...

[@owaisamin1743]

What i see it , mind palace is not a way to memorize stuff . its a way to recall stuff ... e.g , the memory champs memorize those things which are already in their minds ( it means they just have discovered a way to find out quickly what is lost in your mind library ). So , it really does not work for memorzing but for recalling it works perfectly.

nice, i am now a pro :)

This is great if you have the ability to form mental images. 2 to 5 % of people cannot , including myself.

[@stilliving]

I'm trying to conceive of that. How, would you say, is your thought process different from the average person? What's it like?

[@kimberleyramis4818]

I am on a forum with almost one thousand other people who also cannot form mental images. This lack of visual imagery is called aphantasia. The thing is we all think differently. There are many people on the forum who say that have great memories. A lot of us don't have very good episodic memories. We can't go back in our minds and review good times with loved ones. For some of us it is a relief not to have traumatic memories invading our thoughts. For myself I don't know how to explain my thought process. I have this inner monologue that is ongoing. This inner voice has no sound no timbre and no volume. It just is. I learn best by doing. If I'm trying to learn something new I study about it then I practice it until I have it. If I have to remember something I have to either write it down or repeat it out loud over and over. The science around understanding visual imagery is expanding. This really needs to be understood for education. There are so many stories on the forum involving teachers getting angry at students who say they cannot imagine pictures in their minds. No images does not mean no imagination. I am still having a hard time conceiving pictures in ones mind. Isn't wonderful that we all all different. If we were all alike life would be very boring.

As well it should be criticized. It is failing at alarming rates.
