of visual imagery of almost photographic accuracy.
Eidetic memory or photographic memory refers to the ability of a person to recall
images, sounds, or objects in memory with great accuracy and in seemingly unlimited
volume. for instance, many famous artists and composers like Mozart. Imagine being able to memorize an entire sheet of Russian vocabulary, a list of math
equations, or the window arrangement on a large building just by observing it for a few
seconds. These are the abilities associated with eidetic imagery, more commonly known as
photographic memory.
Eidetic imagery is the ability to retain an accurate, detailed visual image of a
complex scene or pattern or see an image that is an exact copy of the original sensory
experience.
People capable of eidetic memory, or eidetikers, are therefore able to recall vivid
images within their mind and examine these images as one would examine a photograph.
