Four quick and automatic effects with a new stack of cards and a few simple mathematical calculations, which alone can work miracles.
A routine consisting of a multiple series of rapid and incredible "Any Card At Any Number" effects, based entirely on the properties of a mathematical stack derived from the more famous "Si Stebbins" and unknown to most, or at least impossible to detect by the audience.
In addition to learning a simple and fun method for constructing it, starting with a new order, you will find explanations of four different A.C.A.A.N. themed effects, the first two of which are more "mentalistic" in style (starting with the roll of an imaginary die, a series of simple operations are performed mentally by the viewer), while in the last two, which are directly linked, both the card and the number will be determined by the spectator freely saying "Stop," which will cause two different numbers and cards to be chosen.
The latter can be 'interpreted' in two different ways, thus determining two different cards, which will ultimately be magically found in the deck, again based on numbers referring to that specific "Stop" decided shortly before.
The best part? The deck of cards will practically do all by itself!
Throughout the entire sequence of four effects, the order of the cards will never actually be altered, and at the end, any reset of the deck (for example, in the case of "Table Hopping" for a Close-Up between tables) will be simple and immediate.
Strengths:
- All four effects are automatic (self-working).
- For the entire duration of the experiment, the illusionist could even refrain from touching the cards, limiting himself to giving the various instructions, as the inexplicable always happens in the spectator's own hands (Hands-Off or Contactless Magic).
- The magician does not manipulate the cards in any way.
- The deck can be examined at the end.
- The secret stack is never affected during the entire routine and can be easily restored at the end.
