Interestingly, this article (https://www.edutopia.org/article/science-drawing-and-memory) highlights recent studies where “researchers found drawing information to be a powerful way to boost memory, increasing recall by nearly double” #OpenBlog19

I know both systems intimately well since the age of about 11, though I haven’t written much about them on my site. (I should fix this, though there are some related tangents within my memory category.) I did notice a large overlap with the major system and Gregg shorthand a while back, which leads me to believe that they’ve got an even richer back history than most may presume.
I’ve always been confounded that these systems aren’t better known in modern culture, though some sources have indicated that religious influences tamped down their proliferation in the 1500’s.
Really interesting Chris, I’d heard of the method of loci before but hadn’t heard much about the rest to be honest. Fascinating article on the overlap you spotted between the major system and Gregg shorthand. Plenty follow up links and food for thought. Definitely worth some more exploration, who doesn’t want improved memory! #OpenBlog19
