L'effetto della routine spiegata con la consueta chiarezza da Aldo è il seguente:

PRIMA FASE: ADUNATA ISTANTANEA

Quattro Jolly sono messi sul tavolo in una formazione a T e tre carte sono poste su ciascun Jolly. Un mazzetto è designato come 'leader' e i quattro Jolly appaiono tutti in quel mazzetto.

SECONDA FASE: ADUNATA

Lo stesso effetto viene ripetuto una seconda volta dopo che il mago mostra i Jolly uno dopo l'altro prima di metterli nei rispettivi mazzetti. ...

Prendere un vecchio semplice gioco e trasformarlo in un capolavoro di intrattenimento. Ecco quello che ha fatto il compianto Aldo in questo raro lavoro della serie "I quaderni di varietà" . Come scrive lui stesso:

"Un vecchio gioco, una veste moderna. Alcune gags e hai una routine facile e di effetto (frase molto usata ma appropriata al caso!).

E' forse brutto dirlo, ma una routine di manipolazione che richiede anni di studio, non ha un effetto così "divertente" come la presente che potrai imparare in dieci minuti. E' la nuova magia!!"

Cosa puoi fare 10 minuti dopo aver letto questo...

Eccoti delle piacevoli quanto interessanti note di conferenza di Aldo Colombini. Una bella selezione di effetti tra i suoi preferiti in cui sicuramente ne troverai da inserire nel tuo repertorio ! La ricetta è sempre la stessa : grande effetto e semplicità di esecuzione !!!

Eccoti un anteprima di quello che leggerai:

• DOPPIO COLPO: Due carte scelte spariscono dal mazzo e appaiono in tasca. Poi l'intero mazzo questa volta sparisce e solo le due carte scelte rimangono in mano. Il mazzo appare nella tasca
• PIRAMIDE: Una carta scelta è rivelata in una strana maniera alla base di una piramide...

Una routine dal triplice effetto con un finale "killer"! Il mazzo viene realmente mescolato e tagliato. Si posiziona una carta a faccia in su nel mezzo. Uno spettatore sceglie liberamente una carta. Si mescola di nuovo di nuovo il mazzo e poi si taglia in due. Si prendono ora contemporaneamente carte dalle 2 pile. PRIMO EFFETTO: la carta dello spettatore appare allo stesso tempo in cui giri la tua. SECONDO EFFETTO: Quindi si gira la prima carta di ogni mazzetto per produrre i quattro assi e, TERZO EFFETTO: infine, si termina la routine con una separazione dei colori devastante. Si utilizza...
