ABSTRACT

First, spend the next 60 seconds memorizing the following numbered list:

1. run 2. shoe 3. tree 4. door 5. hive 6. sticks 7. heaven 8. gate 9. dine (or ‘line’)

10. hen 11. level crossing (or ‘leaven’) 12. elves (or ‘Twelfth Night’)

Done it? Here we have learnt a system for using images to code for numbers, in order to make visualization easy. We begin associating our list to the twelve pairs of cranial nerves. You don’t have to use my suggestions – your own will work much better.
