You need to explore NLP (neuro linguistic programming). It teaches you about exactly how and why you memories are sometimes in colour or black and white, flat or 3D, from a first person perspective or third person and so on....
Go explore!

I'm not sure your memories are 3D... to me watching a memory is like watching the television. It is not three dimensional, but rather two dimensional, with the information that tells me the things I am seeing are three dimensional though the picture is not.
As for short term memories slipping away, technically they last as long as they are rehearsed. According to Baddeley and Hitch, the Working Memory model consisted of three components – a modality-free Central Executive for handling any cognitively demanding task, and two slave systems; the phonological loop, responsible for holding information in a phonological form, and the visuo-spatial sketchpad, specialised for spatial and visual coding
As basically as it comes, auditory stimuli is entered into the phonological loop, and rehearsed until it is no longer needed. Information can be lost if rehearsal is in some way inhibited, or the amount of information exceeds seven "chunks" (Miller). Memories in the phonological store are assumed to be lost in two seconds unless refreshed by rehearsal via the phonological/articulatory loop.
The visuo-spatial sketchpad does a similar thing with visual information.
These can be moved to long term memory if necessary, but yes most does fade if unrehearsed.
And it's the hippocampi which deal with memory. There is one on either side of the brain, in the medial temporal lobes. This is where damage often starts in Alzheimers, so yes, it would start to interfere/destroy memory.
If you're interested, you should maybe look at studying psychology or Neuropsychology. This comes under cognition. Sorry it's not well explained here, but it would be more beneficial for you to read about it if you're fascinated anyway. You can probably find things online, but as for books, HUMAN MEMORY by Baddeley would be a good start. Beware though, these textbooks do not come cheap.

Hello
You have 2D memories?
Like all my memories are in 3D and in colour and so are my dreams.
What are you talking about?
