Today's Photo Memory is the hottest subject of the blogosphere. This is an interesting topic, because everyone talks about this, and you can find the forum, Google News, Yahoo Buzz. Read more. Here are some short excerpts from the summary and you might be interested to read. Photographic memory - Wikipedia: Photo memory or photographic memory, is able to remove pictures, sounds, or objects in the memory of the utmost precision and high volume. The word eidetic (pronounced / аɪdɛtɪk /) means related to a very detailed and vivid recall of visual images, and comes from the Greek word for είδος (Eidos), which means "form". Photographic memory can be a very different role in memory, experts used to describe the elicitation method to detect it [unclear] [edit]. Photographic memory as observed in children is characterized by the ability of the individual study describes about 30 seconds, and maintains a nearly perfect photographic memory of this picture for a while, when it is removed - indeed such eidetikers claims to "see" Blank Canvas picture so vividly and so perfect precision as if it had ever exist. Much like any other memory, recalls the intensity can be set to a number of factors, such as the duration and frequency of exposure to the stimulus, the importance of finding a conscious person, etc. This fact the opposite generally misinterpreted term which requires constant and Total Recall of all events.
Some individuals with autism display extraordinary memory, including those with autistic spectrum disorders like Asperger's syndrome. Autistic savants are a rarity, but they, in particular, signs of a phenomenal memory. However, most individuals diagnosed with autism does not have photo memory.
Synesthesia is also known to improve auditory memory, but only the data that triggers a synesthetic reaction. Some synesthetes have been found to be more serious than normal "full color" in mind, enabling them to respond to shades of color almost completely, when long periods of time without the accompanying synesthetic reaction.
Many people who normally maintain a good memory Eidetic memory. However, clear differences in the way data is processed. People who are normally capable memory often use the Mnemonic devices store data, while those with photo memory remember very specific information, such as when a person was standing, what the person was wearing, etc. They can remember the event in detail, while the normal memory remember daily routines and not the details, which may interrupt routine. It must be noted, however, that this process is usually the most evident when the memory is a photograph of this information to try to remember.
In addition, it is not unusual that some people may experience a "sporadic Photo Memory", in which they can describe some of the memories of very carefully. These sporadic occurrences of Photo Memory not matched in most cases deliberately.
Eidetic Images: Raising more questions than answers - Imagine being able to remember the whole sheet of the Russian vocabulary, a list of mathematical equations, or organization of a large window to the building only through the few seconds. These abilities are related to eidetic imagery, which is more commonly known as photographic memory. Eidetic imagery is defined as "the ability to maintain accurate, detailed visual image of a complex scene or pattern ... or see the image is an exact copy of the original sensory experience (1). People who are able to photograph or memory eidetikers, may, therefore, to remind the living pictures of their own faith and to examine the these pictures could examine the photo. This ability is particularly interesting to me because I'm a visual person and my memories are in the form of images, but I do not have a photographic memory. Looking for a logical explanation behind the eidetic imagery and its link with My Visual images, I noticed that there are more questions of this possibility than answers, the big question is whether it really exists.
Eidetic imagery has been studied over a hundred years (2), and many studies have been conducted to test its validity. Individuals may very memory was tested, and many were held by the eidetic images. DeGroot research done shows that some people are very adept at organizing the information does not really play the images they see. His studio, chess players were asked to reconstruct a number of arrangements of the pieces on a chess board, when considering the organization of short duration. It was found that the outcome expert chess player drops off as a novice, when the pieces were arranged in such a way that does not ever get to the game. Initially a high performance level of expertise was the result of eidetic imagery, they simply could not be better organized and therefore remember the information because the organization can join the already existing information on Chess (7). While some excuse Photo Memory ability to organize vast amounts of information, others have found that this possibility can not be used to explain all the cases examined.
Super Power in human memory - what if when you read this article in memory more than just a basic idea? What if after reading this article, you remembered what it was called, who wrote it, how many point was, and every detail printed in black and white?
Most of us would find this ridiculous unlikely feat, but such super-human existence, is the ability to retain large amounts of information in a relatively short period of time. What makes these people stand out even more is their ability to remember only the information that they are in contact with the fifteen twenty years later precisely accurate.
These few selected individuals diagnosed with is called a super-term autobiographical memory, the ability to hold large amounts of information and the ability to remember this information since a long time. This is so similar, and a variety of photo memory or photographic memory.
Why photograph interests us a lot of memory - Eidetic memory is a really interesting topic that interests the average American has at least to some extent. We can see that the number of television signals, which are created photographic memory. This is especially common to see the TV crime show - examples of a star show Monk, Zack character and nature of the bones of Ady Spencer from Criminal Minds. Sign a photographic memory also appear in films and literature, and they have a strong position in the comics.
Individuals who have photographic memory - Let's look at examples of people who were thought to memory, which is so far along the spectrum of memory recall that could be regarded as a photographic memory:
• Kim Peek. This is the man that the movie Rainman was based. He is a person who is considered Savant and has a unique combination of photographic memory with severe developmental disabilities. It has been analyzed, he points out that more than 98% of what he reads, and it said that he can not remember the content of more than 12,000 books. Since he can not remember the facts in a number of different topics, it is probably fairly accurate to say that he is so close to the real photo memory one can get.
• Nikola Tesla. The inventor and engineer is reported to have a photographic memory, which allows him to remember what he read, and incorporate it into their work.
• Mozart. This is an example of someone that it's really hard to say for sure whether he Eidetic memory or not. On the other hand, he certainly had the upper memory of music. On the other hand, this may be due to intensive training and to focus research in this area and has nothing to do in his memory at all. Hans von Bülow and Rachmaninov are two examples which may or may not have a photo memory in the specific area of music.
• Swami Vivekananda. The Indian guru supposedly was able to search and read the ten o'clock number is only a few days' and recall the content of them all.
• Andriy Slyusarchuk. This man is not only a view number Pi is the number per million, but were also able to hear the page number, row and column in the printed version of the PI and the number of which mention was that the location printed on the table!
Photographic memory: Is it real? - We have all heard stories of people who have photo memory (more generally known as photographic memory). These are people who remember the details of the Extreme something, even though they have only watched it for a while, read through it once or experienced it only briefly. Is it true that these people are there?
There is much controversy about Photo Memory. Some say that photographic memory is entirely a myth. They believe that the people who claim to Eidetic memory really only need to pay particular attention to detail, ability to remember things more vividly than others, and a number of tricks, which adds to their ability to remember things. Others point out that there is such a thing as photographic memory - that they or someone they know may be something to look for a short time, and memory is so close in detail that it is as if the brain is a photograph that they can not then remember their minds.
