Apartment: "Apartment is
inspired by the idea of the memory palace. In a mnemonic technique from a
pre-Post-It era, Cicero imagined inscribing the themes of a speech on a suite
of rooms in a villa, and then reciting that speech by mentally walking from
space to space. Establishing an equivalence between language and space,
Apartment connects the written word with different forms of spatial
configurations."
