Please do.
Now that this topic is buried on page 2, I don't know if anyone will see this post. However, I've begun work on my tutorial. I intend to do a "demo", constructing a memory palace. Is there a particular list (of about 5-9 items) that people might find universally useful? Memory palaces really need to be constructed by the individual, but for the demo, I'd prefer to to something at least mildly relevant.
Great for starting to work on this.
I don't understand what you want us to say here. What kind of items?
Thirded. It's nearly impossible to find a definitive guide on how to do memory palaces.
Possibly stupid question: didn't Giordano Bruno write the go-to guide for that?
Yeah, in Latin. I don't think it's been translated to English, and it's somewhat suspect now, considering it's centuries old and was part of Bruno's obsession with the occult.
This might do: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Art_of_Memory
I've seen it already. As far as I know it was only history, do you know otherwise?
There's this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonwalking_with_Einstein
Those are great books. The Art of Memory covers the history of memory techniques. Moonwalking with Einstein is more about the culture of the memorization scene than the techniques. I keep a list of practical books over here.
Again, not a guide.
No, it pretty much is. It's also got other stuff too is all.
Seconded. There are quite some comments referencing memory palaces here, but no post.

Note that Sherlock uses this method (with funny visualization in the series).

corrected
It's encouraging to see so much interest! I'll try to pull something together in the next few weeks.
