Stop your pulse, Plant thoughts, Influence Choices and Demonstrate the most impossible coincidence.

Asystole - A one of a kind Impromptu pulse stopping effect where your palm can be face-up all the time with nothing covering it.

Note: If you have never seen or known any pulse stopping effect, then kindly get yourself acquainted with one, because it is only after that you will be able to use ASYSTOLE.

Bonus: Your heart beat gets synchronized with a song someone sings/plays or even with a mobile ringtone.

Time Frame 2.0 - Force any time without the help of any prop or preparation....

Ablest Change is a bold and fast card color change that immediately establishes you as a skilled magician. This is a one handed color change which is fun to practice and perform. Here you end up without any face-up card and this change offers two easy clean-ups.

A really clean and impeccable ACAAN.

What the audience sees and hears:

The Performer brings out a deck of cards and points to a person asking him to think of any card but not the Ace (as its common for people to go for it) and another person to think of a number between 1 and 48. He then proceeds to pull out the Aces meanwhile handing out small packets of cards to 4 different audience members and asks them to shuffle the cards thoroughly. While they are busy shuffling, the two audience members are asked to name their thought of card and the number for the first time.

Once the shuffling...

A three phased easy to do routine that gives your spectator an experience of what it feels to be a mentalist.

Phase 1: 5 business cards are shown, each having the ESP symbols and are laid face down towards them. The performer introduces another set of 5, with a little thought points to one of them and asks them to point a card in their pile which they think matches the performer's card. They do so, and it matches.

Phase 2: The performer draws one of the symbols on a business card and the spectator correctly guess which one has been drawn.

Phase 3: The spectator is asked if he remembers...

A thought of card is conveyed to everyone (without writing down or uttering a single word) while the performer has his back towards the audience.

Once done, the performer turns back asks a couple of unrelated questions and hesitatingly pulls out a single card from a deck of playing cards. And that happens to be their thought of card.

• No stooges or confederates
• Borrowed deck
• Angle proof (can be done surrounded)
• Super easy to do

A hybrid of a card trick and the plot spectator as mind reader dressed in the clothes of hypnosis.

Spectator 1 selects a card and places it back in the deck which is then put into the box. Spectator 2 is asked to close his/her eyes and is put through a simple process at the end of which he/she names the card.

Honest Notes:

The card is a force card (any card among the 52 will do) and it is conveyed through some physical factors supported by the script.

In here you'll find my script in English, which can easily be adapted to any language and is not bound by any particular word/s. And...

A couple of people are invited to participate in a trick - any 4 of a kind gets chosen, one of the 4 cards is then given to Participant no. 1 by Participant no. 2. Participant 1 who has no knowledge of the card in his hand correctly deduces the suit and then the value of the card.

• Borrowed and Shuffled Deck.
• No Forces.
• Easy to do.

• This needs a table or a working surface.
• A fact (stated twice in the patter), a phrase and the casualness of the performer's is what makes this possible.
• Included in here is the script (fully customizable) and a short video (download from...

Four excuses to hand out business cards as well as reasons to carry a bi-fold wallet.

Aware: A participant draws/writes a free thought on a card and without ever coming in direct contact (that's what the audience thinks) you know exactly what has been drawn/written.

B4C: Confabulation made compact.

ConFab: Squeezed B4C, so that it becomes easy.

Drawing D: An impromptu Drawing Duplication.

8 excuses to hand out business cards

Accurate - Based on Andrew Gerrad's Accuracy, it's different but impromptu. 3 objects are hidden one in each hand and one in a card box. And the performer deduces the location of each of those objects.

Brief But Accurate - Accurate made short but still effective

B4 Esperience - This is how Esperience used to look like before what it is now.

Dismantle - Spectator reads the thoughts of another spectator.

Haptic - A fun little piece that deals with unconscious cognition and utilizes your sense of touch

A deceiving card control + an intrepid card move = An audacious card at any number

AMBIENCE CONTROL : A single card control from the middle of the deck to the top. Originally put out in The Blind Faith Collection (2015). It can also be used as a phase in an Ambitious Card Routine.

Notes and Credits: Do not confuse Ambience Control to be same as Bizau Christian's Blind Square. They both are different. Say Stop was inspired from Paul Wilson's Yamfacaan. However...

Things that nobody ever taught about hypnosis.

There are a lot of popular sources on stage/street hypnosis and all of them teach you what you need to know to be a successful hypnotist but miss out/under explore certain WHATs and WHYs like –

• What is the difference between conscious and sub-conscious mind?
• Why do hypnotists often change their pace of speech?
• Why is it difficult to hypnotise children?
• Why should we dress well when Hypnosis is all verbal?
• What effect does fractionation have on our mind?

Love it or hate it but most of the numerous versions of ACAAN out there end up in the same ball park -- look what I can do or I manipulated your choices without your knowledge or simply as a coincidence. The Empirical ACAAN drifts from all of that, here is an ACAAN that makes people connect to each other. An ACAAN that is not about you but about the audience with virtually no sleight involved.

What’s great is that 70% of the times you'll have a hands-off / clean ACAAN and for the rest 30% you have to do something logical which is covered by the presentation to make it look like a hands-off...

Timeline is a 3 minute short, scripted and theatrical close-up act using a borrowed deck of playing cards.

With only 2 basic sleights and your script you're able to make people feel that they're watching an expert at work. You tell a short essay on time and magic happens almost by itself while the essay is being narrated.

Each action and revelation is perfectly supported by the script. Here are the opening lines - "If there is one thing no-one can escape from – it is time. In fact even if you go out into the space or deep under water, you’re still dominated by time because your oxygen...

For decades magicians are on a quest to perform Any Card At Any Number from a borrowed and shuffled deck; which isn't always possible so they often settle for Card At Any Number.

The problem is that Card At Any Number when presented as a one-time feat can be mistaken as a co-incidence or the skill of the performer which takes away the feeling of it being pure magic. Caantastic counters just that by creating a mother of all co-incidences moment for the audience. Card At Any Number not just once or twice but thrice and when it happens the third time it dilutes any skepticism and evokes the...

Stratagem is a 3 phase modular routine using a regular pack of playing cards. It is easy enough for a month old beginner and at the same time delivers an impact of an expert. Each phase of Stratagem stands on its own and at the same time builds upon the previous one.

Phase I (CAAN on Steroids) :: A crossbreed of 'Do As I Do' and 'Card At Any Number'. CAAN not just once but twice - once in the hands of the performer and the other time in the hands of the participant with zero sleights involved. Each time all the decisions are made by the participant.

Phase II (Remote Viewing) :: With your...

A virtually self-working ACAAN with plenty of audience involvement.

We all know whenever the audience tries to reverse engineer or recreate a trick and fail at it; they conclude with a common statement - He must have done something sneaky.

The Fortuitous ACAAN works to counter just that. It brings wonder out of the hands of the performer at the same time ensures that the control always rests with him. Here is how it goes:

A deck gets shuffled by 4 people while 3 other people decide on the Number, Value and Suit. The shuffled deck gets collected and the cards get dealt face-up and the...

21st century playing card prediction that doesn't use playing cards, but you will need a cell phone.

The performer caught without props picks up a piece of paper and writes his prediction. The prediction is given to an audience member to keep secure.
