I don’t have any form of photographic memory, but my episodic memory seems unusually tightly coupled to my spatial stuff. So just as a smell can take you back to childhood, recalling past events brings up a strong recollection of where I was in space and what was in my field of view at that moment, even if that event is just you having told me your friend’s cat enjoys smooth jazz. I realize that’s generally true for everybody, but in my case it seems to be a lot stronger than what others experience.
