photographic memory

The house simulation was intriguinng and left a lot of questions. I am one who often likes to consider myself as one with a photographic memory. This is where it seems to become tricky. When taking an exam or remmebering things I often see the page of notes and the words that are present etc. I cant see the position and all. But in a sense I do not see myself as having a photographic memory because of the I-function. Can it be that it is filling in blanks and making a likely story? I am often very accurate in my delivery of information but often is not always. I would like to do more research about photographic memory and what qualifies one to identify as an individual with this aspect.

I also find that the house simulation could have been done a number of ways without photographic memory capabilities, but is that possible outside a sense of direction? maybe I being optimistic?
