Effect

Performer patters that Blindsight is the apparent ability to see colors and shapes which cannot be seen. You offer a simple experiment. The performer introduces four ungimmicked colored cards: Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow. These in turn are placed into four opaque manila envelopes and mixed so the spectators do not know which color is in which envelope. You ask a participant to point to any envelope. Free choice, no magician's force of any kind. You hold it up and ask him what color...

Matteo Filippini's lecture notes dedicated to bold mentalism, the brazen, reckless one. Boldness is a characteristic that, perhaps more than anything else, distinguish mentalism not only from other similar forms of entertainment but also from 'mentalism' that wants to be perfect at all costs. To best explain bold approaches and methods, Matteo describes in detail five routines, simple in methods but absolutely effective for real audiences.

Effect: The performer produces three small envelopes of the Pay variety. It is explained that each envelope contains a prediction. These are laid out in a row on the table according to the whim of the spectator.

Next, the performer shows the audience a deck of the standard ESP Testing Cards. The deck is mixed and placed before a spectator. The spectator then legitimately shuffles the cards. The spectator is asked to call out a number between one and six. Suppose he calls out "four". Four piles of three cards are dealt, and the spectator picks any one of the four piles...

My Opening Act:
Deciding to show off your ESP skill and having only a deck of cards and a rubber band, you hand your deck out to be shuffled to a nice man named Ted. After he is finished shuffling, you ask Ted to place the rubber band around the cards to make them tamper-proof. You ask Ted if he will stop you on a card as you riffle them past his eyes. To prove to Ted that all is on the up and up, you offer to stare at his girlfriend Mary...

The Svengali deck of cards is a specially prepared deck of playing cards (Poker-sized or Bridge-sized) that can be used by magicians or entertainers to perform various tricks. The deck and the tricks performed with it are assisted by its unique design and require almost no skill. It is based on a very old principle of entertaining deception and confidence game manipulation.

The cards of the deck can be flipped or riffled to create the illusion that the deck is completely ordinary. It can even be apparently mixed and shuffled. The trick involves a spectator choosing a card from the deck and...

THE MAGIC SHUFFLE: This effect uses fifteen cards and if you look at the table you will see that with the previous EVEN number - 14 - the cards at positions 5 and 10 remain after any number of OUT Faros. Because the quantity here is one more this means that the shuffle will be a Straddle Faro.

WEIGHT PROBLEM: This, and the variation that follows,...

Garden Path II: A card is selected and placed face down on table. The spectator deals three packets of three cards and discards the rest of the deck. The top card of each packet is turned face up, and the performer uses the information on each card in an attempt at divining the name of the selection. But he fails. The packets cleanly are placed together with the three reversed cards still in place. You hold...

PSYCHIC MATH: This is a card discovery that appears impossible for two reasons: first, it doesn't seem possible for you to know where the card is in the pack, and second, the card is found using the values of two random cards that were selected before the trick began. The only requirement is a full pack of fifty-two cards.

Watch and learn the routine that won Carl the F.I.S.M. World Championship. Four signed cards completely vanish. Three of them reappear inside three different pockets. The fourth selection reappears in your sock! All four cards then vanish again, only to make their reappearance inside a sealed can of Slimfast, opened by the spectator.

The routine uses palming and sleeving, however Cloutier demonstrates how...
