While researching an article on the US Memory Championships, writer Joshua Foer was equally dubious and intrigued by one contestant’s claim that even an average memory, if used properly, could win the contest. After a year of memory training, under the tutelage of the world’s top memory athletes, he won the competition. In this session, Foer uses a live test to show that there’s much more room in our brains than we imagine. Using skills he learned on his extraordinary odyssey, he demonstrates the science and sport of memory, and teaches us how we can all learn to remember more.
