In this episode, we delve into the fascinating relationship between memory and our spatial environment. How does our brain map the spaces we inhabit, and how do these mental maps influence our memories? We'll explore the concept of 'place cells' in the brain, the role of spatial memory in navigation, and the intriguing phenomenon of 'space-time synesthesia'. We'll also look at practical techniques for using spatial memory to enhance recall, drawing on methods used by memory champions and taxi drivers alike.
