interesting little feature just been on the One show.

concept of crossing "event boundaries" and losing memories.

for example - if asked to memorise then recall a series of items you do better if both tasks occur in the same room rather than changing rooms. To counteract this you need to visualise the first situation.

obviously parallel with bees - finding themselves in a new location/situation after swarming, do the same and forget orientation info.
