René Descartes, Traité de l'homme or Treatise of man (1648)

Descartes compared the process of remembering, and memory, to the traces needles would leave when pressed into a fabric. In human terms, memory was the pattern left by the holes of ‘events’ imprinted in a person’s 'vital spirit’ (or consciousness). Recollection occurred by recalling the pattern, which obviously became stronger when the original pattern was repeated many times.
