"So I'm doing it in what's the most intuitive way for me, obviously, but when I was reading up on other eidetics they all seemed to suck, which is probably partly because of what's intuitive to me in the first place but also, like, I don't want to have flashbacks every time I try to recall something, or only be able to recollect things I paid attention to - have you heard the expression 'almost anyone can imagine a tiger, almost no one can count the stripes' -"

"Yeah?"

"So, I want to be able to count stripes of any tigers I've seen, seems like a ripoff if I can't. And I want to be able to, like, manipulate the memories - not quite like computer files, but if I have the thought process 'I need to do that, I promised to do that, I was thinking about doing that', then this should compile into a to-do-list stored as the memory of when I had that thought -"

"Oooh, I wonder if I could manage to incorporate my schedule timeline formating into my eidetic memory once I get to that -" 

"Yeah, that's why it came to mind - you're using lots of very helpful data-viz stuff, and my plan for remembering and then arranging into new memories previous thoughts I've had doesn't actually incorporate that at all, and it doesn't feel like it needs to but it's the first time it's occurred to me that there might be weaknesses in my eidetic structure, though I guess incorporating a lot of data viz stuff would get more into mindscaping."

"Hm, sometimes, when I've gone over the same piece of chart enough times, I've ended up memorizing. I think the way my brain thinks about it ends up being ...:" and Lucien goes on to describe a mental map of the knowledge that this margin is too small to contain.

"I wonder if you could incorporate something like that into eidetic memory without it being mindscaping?"

"Huh, that's almost more procedural than episodic..."
