Good day,
I recently learned of the loci memory technique, and after doing some research really became fascinated with the idea of the memory palace.
Are there any books or articles that you would recommend to teach/guide somebody on how to build and use a memory palace?

I haven't tried this out but there might be a way to invent
an imaginary building programmatically. Most pseudo
random number generators allow for providing a 'seed'
value as start parameter. One could use the coordinates
of the room as such a start value, e.g.

x * 100 + y, or x * 10000 + y * 100 + y.

The subsequent random numbers could then be used
to fill the interior with furniture and tapestry.

Regards,
Joachim
