In Greek mythology, the Muses, the goddesses of inspiration...

<words x=30 y=350 w=430 h=60>
...were the daughters of Mnemosyne: the goddess of Memory.

UGHHHHHHHHHHH

Memorization gets a bad rap.
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
We all know too well school's "drill and kill" rote memorization.

</panel>
<panel w=500 h=250>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- talking in class -->
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
But not only are traditional lectures &amp; study techniques boring,
they've been scientifically shown to <i>not work.</i>
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
What if there was a better way?

<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- talking in class -->

What if you could play a memory card game with yourself,
every day for ~20 minutes,
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
which would help you store <i>anything you choose</i>
into your long-term memory <i>forever?</i>

I first started using Spaced Repetition earlier this year,
when I begun learning French on my own.
</words>
<words x=30 y=350 w=430 h=60>
Within two months of using Spaced Repetition,
I'd learnt more words than I did in two <i>years</i>
of high school French.
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=450>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic>
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
But wait, there's more!
A friend then showed me how to use Spaced Repetition to learn <i>anything</i>,
not just new languages.
</words>
<words x=30 y=350 w=430 h=60>
Since then, I've also been using it to learn programming,
ukulele chords, poems, and interesting tidbits from articles &amp; talks
I come across.
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=450>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic>
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
I've even seen people use Spaced Repetition to
improve their <i>personal lives</i>...
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
by using it to remember details about friends
(birthdays, pets' names, dietary restrictions)
and acquaintances (names, faces, occupations)...
</words>
<words x=30 y=350 w=430 h=60>
or using it to remember what to do/not do,
to make new habits or break bad habits!
</words>

<!-- This Comic: YOU. (efficacy) -->
<panel w=500 h=250>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic>
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
so what's the catch
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=250>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- are you a cult -->
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
None! It's free, it's evidence-based,
and it's so simple,
you can do Spaced Repetition with a <i>shoebox.</i>
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
In this interactive comic, I'll show you
WHY it works, HOW it works, and help you get started using Spaced Repetition <i>today.</i>
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=250>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- is this the initiation ritual -->
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
Okay, the catch is this:
it's hard to create <i>any</i> new habit,
even a simple habit like Spaced Repetition.
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
But, I hope this interactive comic will help you take the first few steps.
How?
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=250>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- do i need to sacrifice a goat -->
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
By having you learn about Spaced Repetition
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
<i>USING</i> Spaced Repetition!
</words>
</panel>
<!-- Ergo: SR WITH SR -->
<panel w=600 h=100>
Heck, let's practice it right now!
Spaced Repetition is like flashcards, but with a twist.
Go through these cards, and see how well you remember them:
</panel>
<panel w=600 h=400 bg="#e0e0e0">
<!--
<sim x=0 y=0 w=600 h=400 src="sims/multicard/?cards=sci_a,sci_b,sci_c"></sim>
-->
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=400>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- clever clock -->
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
The twist is in the <i>timing</i>.
Spaced Repetition spaces out when you repeat a card,
in a clever, scientifically-backed way.
</words>
<words x=10 y=150 w=430 h=60>
(we'll practice Spaced Repetition a few more times in this interactive comic)
</words>
<words x=30 y=250 w=430 h=60>
I'll explain more later,
but for now, I want to say what Spaced Repetition is <i>not:</i>
</words>
</panel>
<!-- Muse: not lifehack, but control over your memory -->
<panel w=500 h=250>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- back in class, sitting in corner -->
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
It's <i>not</i> a "study trick".
It's <i>not</i> a "life hack".
</words>
<words x=30 y=150 w=430 h=60>
It's a way to take back control of your <i>mind.</i>
To make long-term memory a <i>choice</i>.
To develop a lifelong love for learning...
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=450>
<pic style="background:#bada55"></pic> <!-- Muse. -->
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
...to mother your own, inner Muse.
