Roberto Giobbi - Secret Agenda

A Day Book of Magical Secrets

Secret Agenda is your invitation to spend a year inside the head of Roberto Giobbi!

There, for every day of that year, you will open a fresh door in Giobbi's mind and have something surprising and enriching spring out to greet you-a new trick, sleight, technique, refinement, performance tip, business strategy, concept or insight, drawn from the thoughts, experience and notebooks of a full-time international performer and one of magic's great teachers.

With Secret Agenda, Roberto Giobbi, the world-renowned author of the Card College and Card College Light series, has written an invaluable text for his fellow magicians, and one entirely unlike anything in the literature of magic.

Secret Agenda contains 366 articles, one for each day of the year (plus one extra for leap years). The reader is invited to read just one of these articles a day-enjoying, learning, absorbing or being challenged by fresh thoughts and information-throughout an entire year.

For over four decades, Roberto Giobbi has devoted his life to exploring the world of magic, learning deeply about it from its vast international literature and the greatest magicians. Those whose unpublished work Giobbi draws on include Fred Kaps, Ascanio, Juan Tamariz, Lennart Green, Vanni Bossi, David Williamson and many others.

Over the years Giobbi has methodically, meticulously, exhaustively kept records of all he has learned. Secret Agenda is more than the work of one performer. It is an accumulation of priceless information, gathered from the finest minds in magic, past and present, laid out idea by idea, day by day, for the reader to enjoy and profit by.

While the material presented addresses in part the expected field of card magic, it covers much more: coin and close-up magic, platform and stage conjuring, theory, philosophy and humor. Secret Agenda is wide in scope, with invaluable information and insights for all magicians.

We have attempted to give a work of such uniqueness a fitting format. Secret Agenda is a large, sumptuous volume, indexed, bound in ornately foil-stamped cloth, and includes a book ribbon-a volume comfortable to the hand and inviting to the mind, offering pleasure for much more than one year, and advice for a lifetime.

424 pages in decorated hardcover binding.

Hidden Agenda by Roberto Giobbi

Roberto Giobbi is one of the pre-eminent authors in magic and is well established. The Card College series secured Mr. Giobbi's place in magic's history. But for many, his boldest and most fascinating book is Secret Agenda, a collection filled with wisdom, advice, secrets, and fantastic tricks, all delivered in a "calendar" of magic, one amazing secret per day.

It was the first of its kind, and a modern classic. Magic fans rejoice: it is a pleasure to announce a new collection, a spiritual "sequel." Hidden Agenda has arrived. Hidden Agenda contains 366 entries. Many readers will enjoy digesting one secret per day, while others will find it too difficult to stop turning the pages at each sitting. Topics range from clever deck switches to meditations on how to define the word "magic", but each day of Hidden Agenda will bring a revelation of some kind. There are more photos and trick content in Hidden Agenda than the previous volume, and all the material described is as-yet unpublished. If you are a fan of Roberto Giobbi or magic in general, this handsome hardback volume (414 pages) is a must.

414 pages in decorated hardcover binding, designed to sit perfectly alongside Secret Agenda on your bookshelf.

Seer by Jamie Daws

magine being able to peek, switch and pre-predict with one single envelope. All at the same time...

That’s exactly what SEER does!

Here is a sample routine that can be achieved with SEER:

The mentalist writes something on a business card and folds it into quarters, handing it to a lady in the front row for safe keeping. He immediately offers out a handful of business cards to random audience members and asks them to write down the name of a place they have always wanted to go to but have never managed.

Once they have been written, all of the cards are collected by another random spectator who is asked to mix them up. Once done, she is then instructed to look at any one of the cards and remember what is written on it being careful not to give anything away. She is then asked to take another card at random but this time, to not look at it.

These cards are placed into a black envelope which is kept in full view throughout. Even though the mindreader has no idea of what was written down, he manages to correctly reveal the random place the spectator is thinking! The card is taken from the envelope to confirm he is correct.

The final card is tipped out of the envelope and the envelope is shown empty. Even though the card was placed sight unseen inside the envelope and not even the spectator knows what is written upon it, the mind reader brings the audiences attention to the card that was folded BEFORE anything even began!

Totally Awe-Sum Close-Up by Scott Creasey

Inspired by Greg Arce's stage routine, 'Awe-Sum Total,' which in turn was inspired by Larry Becker's 'Sum Total.' Scott has taken Greg's original (with his permission) and adapted it for close-up table hopping without losing the impact of the original.

Five, five-digit numbers are displayed to the audience as a prediction. These numbers remain in full view throughout the routine and are not switched. The audience generates a random six-digit number in the hundreds of thousands, no forcing. The five prediction numbers are added together by an audience member using the calculator on his phone. The total matches the randomly generated number.

No finger flinging, no memory work, no complicated calculations. Fast reset and worked from your pockets. This Totally Awe-Sum Close-Up video download will teach you all you need to perform this and blow away your spectators!

"I've always been proud of this routine. I know it's devastated many a spectator and even mentalists. I love how Scott has taken the subtlety and method and turned it into a fantastic close-up routine. It takes very little space in your pocket, yet will play like a monster routine. Scott always amazes me with his construction of effects and methods. You are going to be thrilled when you see what he has put together."
- Greg Arce

Tunnel by Ninh and SansMinds Creative Lab

Visual, Mysterious, and Completely Impossible!

For years, magicians have been using props such as boxes on stage to create illusions to fool the human mind. While it is a classic setup, lugging around boxes isn't really appropriate for the strolling magician. Well, now we have something equally amazing that fits right in your pocket!

From the mind of Ninh, we at SansMinds are proud to introduce this illusion that is sure to blow your audience away.

This is Tunnel.

Audiences freak out immediately, as they were holding the bills themselves. Impossible!

An illusion that is sure to impress any audience, and will leave behind an aura of mystery with it.

Rick Anderson LIVE (Penguin LIVE)

"I can hardly wait for the Penguin Live lecture of Rick Anderson. He's one of the most underground, best kept secrets in magic. Without his influence, inspiration and guidance I wouldn't be the guy I am today." –
Shawn Farquhar

"Rick Anderson is old-school in the best way: he does commercial magic that is clean and clear, and I always like to watch him perform." - Joshua Jay

"Rick Anderson is one of my favourite magicians to watch. He's devilishly skilled and hilariously funny. A lethal combination. You are going to love him!" - Matt Johnson

"Rick has a certain style about his coin work that makes it particularly enjoyable to watch. He's also a real thinker about how to make technique more deceptive and natural and how to make it all entertaining." - Michael Ammar

"If you're looking for solid, commercial magic that you can make a living with, you could examine every trick and ask, 'Is this practical, powerful, and do people respond to it?' But it's easier to just ask, 'does Rick Anderson do it?' I know this because Rick was doing that kind of magic when I first saw him, at a convention some 40 years ago. In fact, his performance helped convince a goofy teenager from Hawaii that coin magic could be entertaining. Over the years, Rick has become a well-oiled performing machine, carefully disguised as a scruffy teddy bear. And you know you can never completely trust bears." - Curtis Kam

"Rick Anderson has been one of the top professional performers in the Northwest for forty years- but it doesn't stop there. From the beginning, Rick has been an active and selfless mentor and teacher for a ton of the young talent we now have in Seattle and Tacoma; Now is not only your chance to benefit from his technical expertise, but also his solid advice and experience in entertaining real (that means "paying") audiences as well." - Jack Carpenter

"Rick Anderson is a natural teacher. He is a true student of magic and a superb performer so his instruction not only gives you the "how" of the routine, he gives the "why" it works based on his years of in the trenches performing. Everything I have created, go back to the principals of magic Rick taught me when I was starting out. His depth and breadth of knowledge of magic and performance resume are every students treasure." Sincerely." -Steve Hamilton (former student)

Where can you see the greatest creators and performers share their magic in front of a live audience and then teach you to do it? Only Penguin LIVE!
Magicians flock to see workers give talks. Why? Because these guys see and learn things that you won't find in any book or video. Yes, you'll be learning some incredibly powerful A-material, but the INVALUABLE stuff will be the insight you learn along the way.

No stacked deck
No sleight of hand
No rough and smooth

The cards are genuinely shuffled
The cards are on the table and out of the magician's control before a number between 1-52 is even thought of.
Yes, it's this clean every time with no need to displace, move, or hide any cards. The spectator names any number and the selected card is always at that exact number; never one before or after but always at that exact number and the other 51 cards can be shown.

Position Impossible creates this theatrically beautiful moment where the spectator looks at every card and doesn't see hers. She knows the one on the table has to be hers but she also knows that impossible.

Position Impossible contains everything you need, including a 40+ minute video download that walks you through the routine step by step.

Position Impossible is custom manufactured and available in a very limited supply. Once these are gone they may never be available again.

This is a secret you can carry with you all the time and you will use this. It's one of those mentalism secret weapons that allows you to seemingly do real mind reading under test conditions with borrowed objects.

At The Table Live Lecture Christopher Taylor

Many of the world's greatest mentalists and magicians have used Christopher's handiwork to achieve astonishing and impossible feats. Feats that have been featured in dozens of television magic specials alongside some of magic's most famous names, including Dynamo, David Copperfield, Aaron Crow, Criss Angel, and David Blaine. Join us as Christopher Taylor shares some of his favorite effects right here, At The Table. Here's what you'll learn:

The Recipe: Perfect for stage, parlor, or close-up. This is five minutes of classic mind-reading, using not much more than a single envelope, a pen, and a polished script.

Hotel: Christopher's super-clean version of the Bernstein & Cassidy classic, Name and Place. It's 6 minutes of baffling mind-reading for close-up or parlor. No billet switches or tearing are used, just business cards and a pen.

Warriors: A charming story-driven effect done with cards.

Hero - DIY Version: Real heroes never escape their adventures unscathed. A participant becomes the hero of the day after imagining themselves rescuing a child from a burning hotel, only to find that the room number they found the child in appears in ash on the back of their hand.

Hybrid Holdout by John Bannon

Stop the Press by Martin Lewis

This is Stop the Press, a headline prediction with a supermarket tabloid like the Globe, or the National Enquirer.

You hand a sealed envelope, containing a prediction, to a bystander. A page from the tabloid is torn into pieces and a spectator selects one of the pieces. Headlines on other pieces are all shown to be different. The spectator gets to choose a headline from either side of the piece they chose. Your prediction is opened and proved correct.

It's a great audience participation piece, and an excellent medium for topical humor. It's at home in the largest of theaters, yet plays perfectly in even the most intimate of close-up settings. No complicated gimmicks, sleights, or calculations involved.

Need I add that it packs small plays big, easy to reset, and the effect? Well, the effect on an audience is remarkable. Al Koran closed with it, and it's been used by such notables as Dunninger, David Berglas, and Max Maven.

Half Full by Scott Alexander

Half Full is yet another effect in Scott Alexander and Puck's line of powerful commercial magic. It is based on a long-forgotten trick called "Milkan," which was a favorite of Faucett Ross.

Half Full is a versatile trick that can be a quick opener, or a full five-minute routine of comedy and audience interaction. In fact, when Ross wrote about this type of effect, he said, "To my mind, this has no superior as an 'opener' and would be excellent with which to open a kid's show, yet sophisticated enough for Cardini." Half Full features five different performances on the training video. Three involve audience interaction, and two are startling openers that Scott and Puck call "Glass-Tastic," which are based on Ross's original handling of "Milkan."

Half Full has the added bonus of allowing you to deliver a positive message. It encourages your audience to watch magic as optimists, rather than pessimists, and believers rather than skeptics. Whether you are looking for a quick visual opener, or a full five-minute magical interlude that has your audience completely engaged and entranced, Half Full has everything you are looking for and more!

Only Slightly Sleighty by Ryan Schultz

Ryan Schlutz is known as a genius creator of easy to do card tricks. His bestselling DVD's 'Miracles Without Moves' and 'Effortless Effects' have armed countless magicians with material that has blown spectators away but required no sleight of hand skill to perform.

On Only Slightly Sleighty Ryan unleashes seven brand new barnstorming card routines that take everything to the next level. Most of the routines are still sleight-free or super easy (and those that aren't are still easily achievable by magicians of any skill level), but Ryan also teaches extra options for those who want to incorporate some sleights into the equation and add extra layers of deception to the material. Everything is taught on this video, so you can start simple and then build your way to card ninja expert!

The focus of the tricks on Only Slightly Sleighty is giving your audience the feeling that THEY have control of everything. Ryan has honed and refined these routines with the implicit target of making the audience feel like they have made every decision. Because if THEY made decisions, then the tricks truly ARE magic! It's a masterclass in audience control and relaxed misdirection. You'll have a lot of fun performing these routines, and you WILL fool people!

RudiMental by David Jonathan

From David Jonathan, the creator of the acclaimed effect, Fortuity, comes RudiMental. This collection of self-working, or semi-automatic, effects shares the key underlying theme that the spectator becomes the star, getting all the credit for the small miracles they just apparently performed.

RudiMental contains a variety of unique effects, most of which are hands off. They are simple in method, yet very deceptive. Each effect has a full script, multiple detailed photos, and links to over 50 minutes of streaming videos that provide an in-depth walkthrough of how to execute the key elements of each routine.

SERIAL SENSE
A unique twist on a bill serial number divination, where the participant correctly predicts the serial number of one of their own random bills. It appears so fair, clean, and direct that the performer seemingly has no way to influence the outcome.

COUNTING CHANGE
A nearly self-working ACAAN/Open Prediction style effect that combines coins and cards with a compelling presentation. This engaging effect ends clean and the performer never touches the cards. It relies on an old principle that has been updated and breathes life into new possibilities that can be applied beyond this one effect.

DRAWN INSIDE
A poker demonstration where the participant fairly chooses every card of their hand and unbelievably ends up with the best hand in poker. The principle at play is very powerful and can be used in a variety of other tricks. An alternate presentation is also included.

REFLECTIONS (ACAAN)
This is one of the most fair and direct approaches to Any Card At Any Number that strictly follows the core criteria of the plot and is completely hands off. Most descriptions of ACAAN effects are "they name a card, they name a number... they deal down and it's there," but when you actually see the effect, you discover that's far from the truth and there is a lot of unjustified procedure involved. When you imagine how an ideal ACAAN should look, you'll see that Reflections delivers. Three versions are taught.

Key Points to Remember:

Normal deck is used (in many scenarios, the deck can be borrowed).
Works 100% of the time.
Entirely hands off -- the performer never touches the cards.
No pre-show, no stooges, no accomplices.
No crib sheet.
No equivoque.
No math, no calculations.
No memorization.
No stacked deck.
No deck switches.
The spectator can name ANY card and ANY number (100% free choices).
The spectator deals the cards and also turns over the final card.
The deck is in full view before the card and number are named.
Resets quickly.
Easy to do.

MANIFEST (ACAAN)
This takes the principle explored in Reflections (ACAAN) and streamlines the handling by adding gimmicks. This delivers an ultra-clean, fair, and hands-off ACAAN while still adhering to many of the key points of the core criteria of the plot. The effect initially takes place in the spectator's mind and ultimately culminates with their imagination transitioning to reality.

If you're seeking effects that will knock your audience's socks off, while still being self-working or semi-automatic and well disguised, then you'll be thrilled to perform effects from RudiMental.

The Stealth Pen presented by Rick Lax

Get ready to give autographs... this thing is HOT!

You ask your spectator if you can borrow a dollar. As she's finding her dollar you take out a pen.

With her dollar in your hand, you stab the pen right through. The Pen visually pierces the dollar.

She sees it. She hears it. She feels it. She practically tastes it. She knows that your pen just made a big, impolite (if not downright rude) hole in HER dollar bill.

Now, with your reputation (and her dollar) on the line you bring the pen and bill even closer. At this point you're RIGHT up close... she's NEVER going to forget this.

With NOTHING obstructing her view you pull the pen right back through the bill. She doesn't even blink. She sees every moment of it. The pen is now completely free from the bill.

Anthony Asimov LIVE (Penguin LIVE)

“Anthony is that extremely rare magician... the part time pro who'll make you wonder why he's not a full time professional. Great personality, strong and original magic, interesting and fooling techniques... he's got it all, in spades. You WILL become a better magician listening to Anthony. It would be impossible not to.”
– Will Fern

“Don’t be fooled by Anthony’s casual charm. He WILL fool you. He has constructed routines that are so well thought out, they will throw you off guard and take you down a road you weren’t expecting — all leading to a conclusion that is both entertaining and frustratingly deceiving.”
– Jonathan Levit

“(His) effects are first-rate.”
– Peter Duffie, Magic Magazine

“Anthony Asimov is a very likable guy and fun to watch (both in performance and explanation), and he has a skill for putting an interesting spin on things. There's much to learn from his way of thinking.”
– Jeff Stone, MagicReviewed.com

“Mr. Asimov is a festive and engaging performer, and every item is a theatrical showpiece. Cosmic Appearing Cards fooled me badly.”
– Dustin Stinett, Genii Magazine

Pocketses by Mark Elsdon

Pocketses was my absolute favourite anytime-anywhere card miracle last year. I created it just before Blackpool 2016 and so I've decided that the time is perfect to release it.

From a borrowed, shuffled deck you remove two single cards which you place into your pocket. You quite openly state that these are predictions: one card will match the suit, and the other card will match the value of the card that the participant is about to choose! The participant shuffles the deck and removes a card. 100% free choice, no force. Let's say it is the Ace of Hearts. You remove the cards from your pockets and impossibly they are correct - one is an Ace and the other is a Heart!

Oh, and did I mention that you also have a prediction in the card case that says ‘Ace of Hearts’?!?


Points to remember:

NO force.

NO gimmicks.

NO indexes.

NO palming.

You are always 100% correct, no 'alternative endings' or verbal deception.

Borrowed, shuffled deck.

You'll learn this in two minutes and use it forever.


“I very rarely add new card effects to my repertoire, but Pocketses is just too good to ignore! It's super strong, will fool anyone and is almost self-working.”
 – Iain Moran

“For me personally this is a huge bargain, and this is something that I will do when out and about, and definitely at conventions using a borrowed deck. I will also do this as a part of a larger routine at gigs as this type of magic comes across like you are doing really strong mind reading/mind control stuff. I highly recommend you check this out.”
 – Gary Jones

The Streets by John Archer

From the man who fooled Penn & Teller in their hit show, we bring you "The Streets." The plot is simple: someone picks a city street map and thinks of ANY street they see on the page. You read his mind and tell him many details about the page he is looking at and even EXACTLY what street he is thinking of.

The quantum leap forward with "The Streets" is that, finally, John Archer has solved the biggest issue with any book test: why use a book? People don't need books to think of words, so why use them at all? But here you change the game: you ask someone to think of a street, and provide a book of maps to help. Now, there's a very logical REASON to carry a book of maps.

"The Streets" comes with two full-color custom-printed map books (London and Boston) that do all the work for you. But the presentation is such that you can perform the routine anywhere in the world. These books are subtle works of art. They look JUST like the real thing, but these maps have all sorts of built-in features that force various streets and features. The package also includes a beautiful storage box for both books, two indexes, a 50-page booklet (including two full routines by Luke Jermay) and immediate access to a 35-minute video download of John Archer performing and explaining the routine.

This is a full routine that can be performed anywhere in the world. The presentation is perfectly justified even if you don't live in London or Boston.

"The Streets is more than a single trick; it's a practical tool for the working mentalist—which means if you use it wisely, it might actually keep you off the streets!"
Max Maven
"This is a professionally designed piece of equipment which looks good, works well and offers time-tested methods built into a deceptively convincing and modern package. The Streets can turn any performer into a human GPS."
Michael Weber
"A utility tool that will allow even those left cold by traditional book tests to craft exciting demonstrations of super memory, telepathy or body language reading."
Luke Jermay

Baller by JT Chalatsis

The problem with all sponge ball magic is that it happens in a closed fist.

For the first time, BALLER destroys conventions and allows the vanish to be instant and open.

Effortless visuals with nothing to hide.

A revolutionary sponge ball gimmick has emerged.

Visibly pass sponge balls through:

• Tables
• Windows
• Their hands
• Anything!

NO COVER NEEDED.


"My mind is racing with possibilities - I can't wait to play with this." - Wayne Houchin

The BALLER VANISH is what classic sponge ball magic has been waiting for.

Each gimmick is hand-made to ensure quality and precision.

Make Sponge Balls Great Again!

Get BALLER immediately.

Deceit Treat by Cameron Francis

A stunning miracle with a BORROWED SHUFFLED deck. Deceit Treat is an effect that you will immediately want to perform. The secret is satisfying and the effect is completely impossible.

A borrowed shuffled deck is cut into three packets. They choose whichever packet they want, it's a completely free choice. A card is freely selected from that packet and shuffled back in. The spectator even shuffles the card. Next the spectator deals cards to find their card only to discover it is not so easy. The magician then uses his power of intuition to reveal the spectators card and it works every time.

Deceit Treat has everything you want in a great card effect. The plot is engaging. The effect is impossible,deceptive and the secret is really great. Just any borrowed shuffled deck and you can perform this effect. Deceit Treat is also self working so you can focus purely on your performance without worrying about difficult sleight of hand.

CGI by James Keatley

"This really looks like CGI" -Eric Jones

"That’s $%?# Amazing! I’m definitely using this" -Julius Dein

"This is my kind of magic! Very well made and self-contained. It looks how it should, like a Camera trick!" -Nicholas Lawrence

"Super visual. Limited only by your imagination" -Chris Webb

CGI is a system for making 3D objects pop out of a drawing. It's hand-made, and awesome. You can hold the card at your fingertips, there's no palming, no sleights..

It looks so good, you'll be doing it for yourself in the mirror. And you can start performing this the day you get it, because it comes complete with everything you need, including 3 hand-made custom props. A mini Rubik's cube, a die, and a Lego brick, all carefully modified to look and feel totally normal, yet appear out of nowhere.

CGI comes ready to perform straight out of the box. It’s easy to use and the self-contained gimmick does all the work for you.

You receive:

Custom made CGI gimmick
3 ready made gimmicks (Rubiks cube, Dice, Lego)
Custom stickers to use in your routines
Repair kit

Notes from Acar: As you probably guessed, this looks best from directly in front of you. Also, if you're OCD like me, just fold a card before you perform, that way the crease in the middle of the gimmick card won't arouse any suspicion, even if you're working super-close-up. Honestly, this is a non-issue in real-world working conditions, but hey, I said if you're OCD like me. Seriously, let's take a step-back and re-evaluate. Nobody gets suspicious when paper products have creases on them. Stop thinking like a magician! Ignore all of this if you're not working 12 inches in front of peoples' eyeballs. This is a great trick, and a beautifully done kit.
I highly recommend it.

Trespassing by Smagic Productions

What is Trespassing?

An incredible, moving effect!

This trick looks so great that it resembles a special effect, and leaves an amazing impression on your audience.
We call it Trespassing.

Your spectator can see the effect throughout, as it's quite visual. Yet, they can verify that it actually occurred right after the performance without a hint of the secret!
Just imagine -- you place a piece of a card, or a folded money bill, on top of an ID holder. Just pass your hand over, and it immediately goes inside the ID holder! Fast, clear, and visual.
Your spectator may open and check the ID by themself. They won't discover anything, as this is a completely regular ID holder!
More important, your hands are totally empty and clean.

Simple, yet elegant.

It's easy to perform -- no complicated skills needed.
You could use this ID holder normally for yourself and do the trick suddenly anytime, anywhere. Moreover, you could reset and redo the trick over and over again.
Check it out!

Mark Elsdon - 21st Century Canasta

Bleeding-edge mentalism designed in the image of Chan Canasta.

A participant takes a borrowed deck and shuffles it. You never touch it. Ever. They turn over the top card - it is the Jack of Clubs. Your phone has been on the table the whole time and you tell the participant to open the Facebook app on your home screen. The most recent item on your feed is from a few minutes earlier: it is a photo of you holding a playing card - it is the Jack of Clubs. Boom! Thanks Chan!!

And it DOESN'T have to be a photo, it can be just a regular status update: "Someone is about to pick the Jack of Clubs. Who knew? I DID!" or whatever damn thing you want it to say. And yes they could check it on their own phone too.

"Mark has given some classic methods a TOTALLY new twist and created a physical and technological impossibility that would no doubt have fooled Canasta himself! It certainly fooled me!!" - Michael Murray

No special app required.
No assistant required, this is an entirely self-contained method.
No sleight-of-hand required because you NEVER touch the deck!
Any deck, no dupes, no preparation.
No stooges, instant or otherwise.
No dual reality.
No fiddling with your phone - it is on the table from the start and THEY check the prediction. You NEVER touch the phone!
Nothing extra to buy or learn.
You're a mentalist and don't use cards? Prefer to use star signs? No problem.
I know, right?

And the ad copy is 100% accurate - you never touch the deck or phone.

This is effectively 'The Trick That Cannot Be Explained' taken to the max. Oh, and I also include a version where the prediction is revealed BEFOFRE the selection is seen!

Peter Turner - Real Time

"Each of these effects I have worked in many close-up situations and when performed with conviction absolutely blow the mind of the audience.

I have tried to cover a mixed bag of material to breathe some variety into this PDF and have even shared personal scripts and subtleties that I use in my close up set. The material shared packs small and plays hard."

-Peter Turner 2017

B&E by Cody Nottingham

A law-breaking penetration effect that fools the senses.

B&E stands for breaking and entering.

Imagine taking a borrowed ring and visually penetrating it through a solid rubber band. The best part about it.. They can examine everything!

This is B&E.

KARUNA by Ross Tayler

The way we perform mentalism needs to change. We have to evolve beyond the current status quo of using mentalism as a vehicle for our own ego’s, and instead use it as a means of adding value to the lives of the people we meet, through transformational experiences they couldn’t acquire via any other means.

In Karuna, Ross illustrates how this philosophy can be applied to create truly magical experiences for our spectators, through the medium of a multi-phased propless mind reading routine.

By the time you’ve finished reading, you’ll be able to give highly accurate character readings interwoven with revelations of highly specific personal information such as private memories and childhood hobbies, as well as deductive techniques to identify what pets a person has and even how they take their tea, amongst other things. You’ll learn multiple methods for performing spectator as mind reader effects, including techniques for muscle reading, psychological forces and other bold ploys.

The routine climaxes with the most natural and direct name revelation released to date (in fact one of the first Ross created, which has been held underground since before the release of OUIJA). A wide variety of psychological subtleties are revealed, and in Ross’s opinion these are the real secrets that make his approach to propless mentalism so effective in the real world. You’ll learn all this, plus multiple additional bonus techniques which will allow you to perform some of the grails of mentalism proplessly and with 100% reliability!

Like much of Ross’s out-put, these methods will not appeal to those types who’re searching for the “next big thing”, or the “latest and greatest showstopper, standing-o, invisible, upside-down, wham-bam thank you ma’am, super-flash, chrome, electronic, computerised, Artificial Intelligence, thumb tip, i-pod” and such individuals can find plenty of gimmicks and gizmos on the magic market to satisfy this infatuation. However Ross is sure that those of you interested in creating moments of pure magic for real spectators in your performances will benefit from reading this work.

With contributions from Ben Cardall and Aaron Alexander, and a foreword written by Fraser Parker, Ross is certain that you’re going to gain massive value from Karuna.

In this spirit of value-giving half of the profits for each copy sold will go to St Petrock’s, a homeless charity doing great work in the city of Exeter. Due to St Petcock’s being a local charity, 94% of donations go directly into providing services for the vulnerable people on the streets of Exeter – so your purchase really will make a difference to someone’s life.

ABYSS by Ross Tayler

Allow yourself to slip off the edge, and fall into the Abyss.

As you tumble down and whirl around imagine a spectators voice in your head. They’re trying to throw you off the scent. To deceive you. To muddy your perception of reality… Yet an incredible calm comes over you.

Somehow, despite all this, you exist in a state of total clarity. You just know what is true. What has meaning. Everything they say goes through some kind of automatic filter in your mind. A filter that flushes out all distractions and leaves you with a single pure thought: their thought.

Abyss is not just one routine, a mere trick. Abyss is a loophole in human thought and communication. A loophole that opens infinite doors.

Living and Dead, ACAAN, PIN guesses, name guesses, Lie Detector Tests and many more effects can now be achieved entirely propless, with hardly any process.

These effects are not for the faint of heart. There is no trick here. This is simply mind reading.

Dare you take the step? Dare you enter the Abyss?



NOTE: After publication I sent this work as a gift to the remarkable Atlas Brookings. He later contacted me, telling me he had explored related principles to different affect in his work “The Real Thing”. There are distinct differences between the two works, and each allow for effects to be achieved not possible with the other, however when Atlas made me aware of this relationship it was important to me that his contribution to this field be publicly acknowledged. Readers of either work will gain significantly from the expansions made in the other, and I therefore heartily recommend Atlas’s work to all purchasers of Abyss.

Fraser Parker – “This is the closest thing to real mind reading I’ve ever seen. Some of the best work I’ve seen to date! Ross is really changing the future of our art.”

Ben Cardall – “Wow, Ross! This is incredible. Last night I did a full 20 minute set with nothing but this method. Excellent job, Sir!”9

The Solution by Michael Murray

"When I first heard about 'The Solution' from Michael Murray I knew I had to have it. The moment I heard the method I knew it was GOLD and I needed to add it to my Show ASAP. 'The Solution' is one of my favourite Rubik's Cube routines that has ever been created!!" - Steven Brundage (Cube3)

"Michael Murray's solution is one of the best things I have ever seen. The scripting is pure poetry and the revelation is staggering! When he shared with me the workings I was grinning from ear to ear!" - Peter Turner

"The Solution is an incredible effect with a diabolically clever yet simple method that is perfect as a stand-alone piece or an an addition to just about any Rubik's Cube routine." - Karl Hein (CubeFX)

“More Murray brilliance. Perfect scripting, invisible method and staggering revelation. I guess you could say I like it!!” - Mark Elsdon (Rubik Remembered)

"It's one of those where you read it and think "why didn't I think of that?". Then when you take the time to appreciate the power and subtlety of the scripting you realise that only Michael Murray could've come up with this. Thank you for my new closer!" - Roddy McGhie

"If you want a five star Miracle for pro, you can do no better. I love it, it's magic, a wonder and even with a twist real mentalism." - Marc Salem

“The Solution is GOLD to the working pro…” - Marc Spelmann

"This is good, VERY good, This man is a genius!" - Lior Manor

"You sneaky b@$****! Damn, this is great." - Joshua Quinn

"I love it!!! You are a genius, my friend.” - Haim Goldenberg


WHAT IS THE SOLUTION:

The solution is the very first 'Spectator Rubik Solve' effect ever to be released. Imagine handing a spectator a mixed up cube behind their back and seemingly giving them the ability to solve it.

Couple this with a transformationally engaging presentation and you have an incredibly astonishing effect that will be remembered by your audiences for a very long time.

Easy to learn
Requires one regular cube (not supplied)
Instructional Video Links Included
No prior cube solving ability is required
Suitable for Magicians & Mentalists

CX by Xiang Liu

One of the most desired effects in magic is to produce something out of thin air. Imagine showing your hands empty front and back, then immediately produce a small object without any covering action. CX is Xiang Liu's answer to this impossible feat.

iPhonomagic by Llya Laionov

A revolutionary way of using an iPhone to create REAL miracles.
Be loaded for a full show, having just a phone in your pocket, or having borrowed a phone from a spectator.

What's inside:

1. Personal Space - Using this method, you will be able to read any mind. You can know contacts, numbers, drawings, any photos, anything, that a spectator CHOOSES HIMSELF.
2. Invisible Pin Code - Dial pin, digit by digit from a distance.
3. Brain Wi-Fi - You'll be able to know any drawing, that a spectator will draw and immediately delete it, using THEIR phone! Your back will be turned to them! Very simple, but powerful method, that deceived many magic minds.
4. Virtual Reality - It's a huge concept, that you can adapt, develop and recreate to your own demands. You turn on a camera, catch anything on it and objects or drawings start to visibly come alive, transform, or disappear. Cards can color change, photos can speak to reveal predictions, just like Harry Potter style, but revealing thought of cards or words. Very visual and strong.
5. Backcount - You set a timer on your phone and ask a spectator to count backwards, starting from ANY digit, that he can freely name at the moment of him holding your phone. As soon as he says ZERO, at that same moment the alarm clock goes off. Very cool synchronicity test.
6. Charge - You can visually transfer energy from any phone to your phone.
7. Call - A spectator selects any contact from YOUR phone, and this contact immediately gives you a call.
8. And the BRILLIANCE of the Download is CALL2 - A spectator selects a contact from THEIR phone, concentrates on this person and this person is GIVING THEM a CALL! Their name is seen on spectator's phone. And this can be any person even some you have never heard exist.

PLUS 4 MIND BENDING BONUSES

FAQ:

Can I use Android?
You can use Android for everything, but CALL, which is less strong than CALL2, which you can perform!

Is there a special iPhone app?
Yes and no. Some tricks use programs, which have interesting functional features. For bonus ideas, you will need to buy an app from the App store.

Which effects can I perform, using a spectator's phone?
Personal Space, CALL2, and Brain Wi-Fi.

iPhonomagic is not just tricks, it is also a perfect self-promotional tool!

Hover Card Plus by Dan Harlan and Nicholas Lawrence

"Stunning visuals and an absolutely brilliant method. This takes a classic many of us are familiar with and truly catapults it to another level!! Had me saying how in the h#%&??" -Oz Pearlman

"At first I thought Nick was showing me an old standard, and then I lost my mind when he handed me the card. Brilliant update." -Erik Tait

When the brilliant Dan Harlan saw what Nicholas Lawrence did to his classic Hover Card, he said "My vision of a self-contained close-up levitation has finally been perfected."

Only available at Live Magic Expos until today, this is without a doubt the best card levitation of all time. It fools everyone.. ESPECIALLY magicians who thought they knew the secret. There's no threads, and now seemingly NOTHING AT ALL.

Imagine a SIGNED card floating off the top of a pack of cards, and while it's hovering in mid-air, you pluck it out of the air, show it on both sides, then gently place it back IN SPACE. IN SPACE, MAN!!! Then, as if that wasn't already enough, you can prove it's not connected to the pack by pulling the top card of the deck off, then the next card and the next card if you like. And if THAT isn't enough.. with complete control, you make the card float back onto the deck AND IMMEDIATELY HAND IT OUT. Did I mention it was signed?

If you want a levitation that's close-up, uses no threads and has absolutely NO EXPLANATION, this is a no-brainer.
