Some months ago, I came up with an idea to encode 3 cards per image. Since it required memory palaces with 234 loci (18 regions with 13 loci each), I decided to be systematic and only use huge virtual palaces. I’ve given up that 3-card system, but building those loci wasn’t a waste of time.
The following is a file containing the 8 memory palaces (1,872 loci in total) I built:
The file looks ugly on Google Sheets, but I promise it looks better on Excel. Also, I took these palaces from a channel named Enes Yilmazer, which displays luxurious houses and yachts.
I hope you guys find this resource useful. If you wish to understand more about that 3-card system, variable spacial encoding, or any of my other methods, you can find their explanation here.
Advice, criticism, question, or feedback is welcome.
I have used up just about all of my memory palace locations for storing my 2 digit images for active recall training. None of my locations are as special as the places you have in your file. I think I will take 25 (to start with) of your locations (I use a person-object 2 digit system and that requires only 25 locations for 100 digits) and string them together in a logical order.
I like excel a lot for lists, but I also use obsidian, I feel I can isolate a place and detail it there with more freedom.
In my zettelkasten all the places would be related, for example a school in general to a specific classroom, it would go from general to specific, but they would all be connected from general to general and from specific to specific.
The connections I call atomic connections, although the details I use for places are not really atomic, but the name I give to the place encapsulates the whole place, partly atomic and partly not so much.
I also do it with characters and objects, but I always try that everything is connected, that a place is not isolated from the others, which would be like a tree in a forest that connects with the other trees.
