Or do you want the memory of how you felt, the friends you were with, the connection that you had with the artist because you were there? I know this sounds real hippy-dippy, but it's real.

In the sense that this is what you want to remember. I think, at least I don't want to lecture people if they want to remember taking pictures of things. That's fine. I'm sure everybody remembers taking pictures at these things, but what did you take a picture of? And so you can use the phone, and this is where the studies show good effects, is if I mindfully use the phone and I say, like,

There's something here that will be a good cue that will remind me later of this great conversation. I focus the camera on that. I take a picture mindfully. I use the camera not as a way of spreading my attention and just grabbing everything in this shotgun approach, but rather use it to find what's distinctive and what's important and actually focus me on it. That's a really good thing. Wow.

So what I try to do is selectively document, not over-document. I'll take a picture of people laughing or people eating. I like to go to conferences now. John Listman used to do this, late John Listman, and so he passed away. So now I try to do this. I think more about these things.

And so I try to take pictures of people randomly, you know, they're drinking a beer and then they spit out laughing or something like that. And these are not... Things that are like landmarks that are not things that are tourist stuff, but they are great retrieval cues. And so what happens is the next part of it is seeing the picture. Well, what do you do when you see the picture, right?

Do you scroll right? Or do you use it as a cue to effectively test yourself to recall what happened during that event and integrate it? Now, what's interesting is that act of recollecting the event in itself will change the memory, right? and it can make it more accessible, but it can also make it a little bit more abstract and story-like.

And so there is an interesting trade-off where you have these things where you have these memories and you could even document it. But if you use the, the, if the more you retrieve it, the more accessible it will be, but sometimes it'll be less immersive and more like a story that you've told a hundred times.
