Encoding, storage, retrieval

Memory is not storage and retrieval like a filing cabinet—it's a reconstructive process where information is encoded through attention, stored by making connections to existing knowledge, and retrieved by reactivating those patterns. Understanding this explains why memories shift over time and why the act of remembering is itself a form of learning.
