At TED, bilawalsidhu demoed a "geospatial memory palace": hundreds of 2D photos lifted into 3D and placed exactly where and when they happened on a familiar 3D map, letting him fly between moments — green room to backstage to main stage. A reply notes the resemblance to Joshua Foer's memory-technique bestseller "Moonwalking with Einstein."
