I've been reading the various threads about memorisation, and have to
wonder what is appealing about translating information from one domain
into a completely unrelated domain in order to memorise it.
We have discussed memorising a cube using numbers, sentences and cards.
Why not memorise the direct visual imagery that we get by looking at the
cube? With training it should be possible to form memory associations
based on the spatial relativity of same-coloured facelets, and observe
shape outlines formed by these sets of facelets. This is how our brains
are natively wired to perform visual analysis, anyway.
By the way, a sequence of 4 random chords (4 notes each) constrained to
a range of just 2 octaves, contains more data than a single random cube
position (if you only care about the data that allows you to solve the
cube). If you can see visual patterns to the same extent that musicians
hear auditory patterns, then a single random cube shouldn't take more
than a few seconds to memorise.
