>I remember what I choose to.

And you fill in the blanks of what you can't remember using deductive logic. There are no photographic memories.

If you have a photographic memory, contact a psychiatrist/psychologist who studies memory immediately, as you will be the first documented human with such an ability.

It depends on the resolution of the picture, moron.
Size of a picture starts from 1 bit.
Reality is so detailed that it wouldn't be physically possible to hold a perfect reproduction of every moment you have experienced.
It goes without saying that in that sense photographic memory is a myth.
If I remember text my memory is photographic enough.
Go choke up on sperm brainlet.

Photographic (or eidetic) memory exists in most infants and toddlers as a way to identify surroundings to ensure safety and quick early education.

This ability fades throughout development as your brain learns to dispose of information that is not necessary (ei, the name of a stranger you met once).

Adults who have this ability are often cognitively impaired, as their brain never developed properly, including the ability to dispose of useless information.

I had a friend who claimed to have eidetic memory, because he could recall passages from books perfectly. I tested this by asking him what color shirt I wore last Monday, he did not know.

The explanation is, his brain "thinks" books are important, not shirt color.

>I've read that photographic memory does not exists.
That's just people refusing to believe that anyone's inner world is different from their own. Even many psychologists are guilty of that.

Pi is memorized using mnemonic techniques.
No record holder in competitions claims to have an eidetic memory.
You should know about Joshua Foer's book.

Nice evidence

>>8947860
I remember an anon who claimed to have this. He said he remembered every single post he made on 4chan.

From what I know such people actually have problems in generalizing knowledge and remembering people's faces, since every time they see a person they have a "new", slightly different face.
