A member asked:
Because the brain is so adaptive, is it possible to train one's memory to be photographic, at least to some degree? if so, how?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Photographic memory: The clients i've seen with this aptitude always had it, but i believe it's possible to develop the skill with practice. One trick is to practice looking at a picture or word and then see it in your mind, gradually increasing the complexity. There are many books on memory techniques that you might explore.
