An easy way to recall Tamariz Stack

General Memory Chat
1

I have artificially generated through the use of Meta AI some images for recollecting the order of a magicians Tamariz stack.

I have used intuitive pegs as loci depicting the place number where the playing card is situated and have used the Harry Lorayne method of Major System for values of actual playing cards themselves. Note: Meta AI is a free app that is found on your WhatsApp page on your cell phone. Well at least it is on mine?

By illustration I give you the first 4 cards and last 4 cards in the Tamariz stack. To generate the images you need only type in: “Image of Statue of Liberty driving a Ferrari” as an example.

My position pegs by way of illustration:
#1 = statue of liberty - looks like a 1 (Symbol of USA - 1st World)
#2 = swan - looks like a 2
#3 = McDonald golden arches - looks like a three
#4 = Windsurfer - looks like a 4
etc. etc.
#49 = a 49er San Francisco American Footballer - gets you to 49
#50 = 50 Cents Rapper
#51 = Area 51 - Drone illegally flying in area 51
#52 = a deck of playing cards - 52 cards in a deck

Card Values:
4C = CaR (Clubs 4)
2H = HoNey (Hearts 2)
7D = DuCK (Diamonds 7)
3C = CoMb (Clubs 3)
etc etc
10D = DiCe (Diamond 0 = Diamond 10)
6C = CaGe (Clubs 6)
AH = HeaD (Hearts Ace)
9D = DeB (Diamonds 9) debutante

By visualising these images you can go from a playing card value directly to its position in the deck or you can go from a position in the deck to its corresponding playing card as you have used “paired associations” in each of the images generated.

I really like the swan dripping in honey and the Halloween drone :grin:
A pity that I can’t use it because I have been using a non standard major system for years. But I can see how it would be very easy to memorize the deck with it.

It’s fun. But it’s long and your head will generate it faster. You don’t need a 4k image in your head. Imagine an elephant and look at how fuzzy it is, but there is some visibility of the elephant.

You no longer need the image quality to memorize it.

Only if you are going to specifically select a lot of places on the object to memorize through it.

Good quality images are needed when you memorize figurative codes (00 - 99, 000-999, cards, binary, names, etc.)

Why do you draw a distinction between quality of images say for playing cards as opposed to images for #00 - #99 or #000 - #999. I would think that the quality of images generated should be one and the same?

For memorization of codes (00-99, maps and other similar data) that you memorize and apply automatically, it is more convenient to use such pictures, they will be fuzzy in memory anyway.

You don’t need them for normal memorization, because the images are mostly taken from your head
