Would this be a good method for memorisation?

Since when did Jews become an ethnicity?

Sorry I am off topic here, but, F.P., what your signature means?

What part of my signature is confusing you?

I am quite curious, did you really did a 50/50 multi bld?

Edit: never mind, I saw your old post about it. Sorry for having doubted you. It is quite incredible.

Actually, yes, it confused me. It is just the most awesome cubing thing I ever heard (well... read) of. Way too much amazing and then I got confused. Now I believe it.

When I first started BLD, I experimented with something like this. Then I realized that I could just assign a letter to each sticker. Get 22 letters, then see qqwref's post. For 3BLD, just sound out the letters. For multi, then you may want to make a list of images. Try reading through http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?t=785 for various ideas.

IMO the more offensive/vulgar a memo sequence is, the easier it is to remember. Some of mine have been rather bad.

hmm, I feel that it would be same case for me, even know I don't know how to blindsolve :fp

That's no problem; I don't really care that much about it...to be honest, the only reason I have it in my signature is to get people to click on the youtube link.


@DavidWoner: yes, that's correct.
People really shouldn't think/care about moral issues when it comes to mnemo-techniques.

Well, unless that can actually help you cement an item in your memory. As in, you think, "Wow, that's evil", and then that helps you recall it.

 

[F.P.]

It's easier for our brain to memorise absurd, unusual and weird stuff.

People usually aren't able to recall the details of the things they do on a daily basis...but if something unusual happens, they can recall a huge amount of what happened.

And that's what should happen everytime you try to memorise something...it should be disgusting, weird, amoral - at least that's an easy way to make memorisation more effective.

Though, you could go in the opposite direction as well and try to memorise it with extremely positive emotions.

EDIT:

I'm sure you already knew that, Mike. So, no offense intended.

 

[Sin-H]

I think I remember you, F.P., telling me about a mnemo system for the corners where you have to remember people dying next to you in weird ways

 

[F.P.]

Yep, that one was awesome.

Just imagine looking at a house (=cube) and people are jumping out of windows (=corners), getting kidnapped, drowning etc. ...I will never forget those screams.

You guys are weird!

Hmmm... can you describe this corner-death method in greater detail please?

 

[F.P.]

Well, I'll try (this method is for memorising stickers; classic pochmann).

Using this method, the cube will be a house which you look at from the outside (standing in front of it).

The house has windows on each side (at the corners); so there are windows facing the left side, the right side, front and back.
There is also a way to go to the roof of the house and the house has a basement too which can be accessed by all sides.

In front of the house there is a sea, on the left side there are crocodiles, on the right side there are dinosaurs (or any other creature you imagine as being dangerous for human beings ).

The basement is burning...

So, in every corner there are humans and depending on the way they die, you'll know which sticker you need to put in the buffer position (depending on the method of course).

So, everyone who is drowning jumped out of the window in the front, everyone who is killed by crocodiles jumped out on the left side; everyone who is burning, is in the basement (which means "D" on the cube).

"U" for example, is the roof...so, someone getting kidnapped with a helicopter from the roof, means "U".


It would be easier to just draw the whole thing but I hope this does the job as well. It's kinda morbid but it works and it's quite easy to come up with.
