A computer readable memory includes a circuit layer, a multilayer memory stacked over the circuit layer to form a memory box, the memory box comprising a bottom surface interfacing with the circuit layer and four side surfaces, and a first switching crossbar array disposed on a first side of the memory box. A plurality of vias connects the circuit layer to the first switching crossbar layer. The first switching crossbar array accepts signals from the plurality of vias and selectively connects a crossbar in the multilayer memory to the circuit layer. A method for addressing multilayer memory is also provided.
