About the event

Twenty-five hundred years ago, the Greek orator Simonides conceived the Memory Palace technique. This ancient knowledge remains fresh and relevant today—you can use it to remember speeches, scripts, lists, and other sequential information. Join us as we turn Backstory Bookshop into a Memory Palace and amp up our brain power! We’ll also delve into the fascinating history of how this system was embraced—and transformed—by Roman politicians, Medieval mystics, and Renaissance scholars, and why it died a needless death soon afterward.

About the presenter:

A practitioner of trained-memory methods since his teens, Brent Sverdloff has helped countless students and professionals boost their powers of recall.

A Creative Way to Remember Names and Faces and Off Book: Memorization Secrets from  Performing Artists. Both books will be available for purchase at the event (cash or Bizum).
