In the digital age, we have more methods than ever before to offload the need to remember things. So why do you think that students and teachers and anyone honestly should care about cultivating a great memory inside of the digital age? For the simple reason that everything you've said is focusing yourself on knowledge that already exists. If you can start seeing patterns and ask questions rather looking up. And how come I managed to see this link between indigenous knowledges, stone hinge and the way monuments have been put together?"

Dr. Kelly is a science writer and Adjunct Research Associate at LaTrobe University, specializing in the study of memory methods used by oral cultures, particularly indigenous societies.

She has authored several books, including "The Memory Craft," "The Memory Code," "Song Lines" and "Knowledge and Power in Prehistoric Societies." She has a diverse background in engineering, physics, mathematics, information technology, and gifted education.
