The manipulation of playing cards is a classic stage magic act where the magician plugs cards and entire fans out of thin air and vanishes them the next moment.
In recent years the manipulation of cards has been taken to a completely new level with stunts that look utterly impossible. Usually this new modern outgrowth is called eXtreme Card Manipulation (XCM). It is an extreme form of card flourishes. It is actually contact juggling with cards.
