The rest of the audience are passive observers of this process, they are not actually involved in the effect. Macro effects on the other hand attempt to actually involve everyone at least on one level or another.
"One of the best pieces of impromptu stage mind reading I have ever seen!" - Paul Brook

"In my lifetime, I've seen some of the greatest "CUPS N BALL" routines performed by Dai Vernon, Mike Ammar, John Thompson, Charlie Miller, Johnny Paul and the many others with brilliant routines and moves & sleights.

"A brilliant and versatile principle that has stood the test of time." Ian Rowland
This is an unbelievable book test. Just imagine taking a modern book; perhaps a best seller in the bookshops right now. The book is genuine and is completely unfaked in any way. You can even ask a member of the audience or perhaps someone on a radio show that you will be talking to, to bring along a copy of the Da Vinci Code or whatever you choose to use. Or you could do this impromptu with any book as long as you have a couple of minutes private time with the book.

Advanced Brain Knewmerology was great for small groups or close up. And now this is so well made for stage. The triple audience participation is a huge plus. The ‘smart list’ is a master stroke. Now this series is my ‘go to’ routine for doing impromptu, propless effects. Another advantage, which I realized now, is the relative anonymity of this author on you tube and magic forums. This keeps his great releases mostly underground and is an advantage for workers.

This is an impromptu and propless mentalism routine which is a lot of fun to do. It works best in a one-on-one situation where you are performing to a new acquaintance whom you have met for the very first time.
With this routine you prove to the participant that her mobile number and her birth year (both of which you have no way of knowing since you met the participant for the very first time just then) are somehow associated in a mysterious way. The participant will be utterly amazed with this unexpected revelation.
There are multiple payoffs in this routine. A new acquaintance gets... $12 Fifty FiftyGerard Zitta ... cheat. No other method can avoid this, even if it is very clever.
PROS:
- The spectator can cheat (by hiding the coin in their pocket for instance).
- 100% freedom: No procedure, no rules. The participant can do and say what they want, change their mind, lie constantly or not, no force, etc.
- Impromptu (with a minor preparation for the day)
- 100% reliable: No risk of misunderstanding by the participant. You will always win.
- No gimmick, no logic, no maths, no memory, no difficulty. Does not use any of the principles based on logic or liar/truth
- No electronics. (Do it with a paper bullet...
★★★★★ $7.50 My Favorite Card TricksHarry Lorayne From the Foreword:
I sat down and described, in detail, fifteen of my favorite effects and routines with ordinary cards. Effects that you can do anywhere, any time, with any deck and under almost any conditions. Of the fifteen, only four begin with the standard "pick a card" opening.
I've used the same format as I used in Close-Up Card Magic and Personal Secrets - that is, I've gone directly into the method and presentation in most cases. And - since I usually write an effect in one sitting, I most often come up with a thought or two after it is written. Therefore - the "Afterthoughts."

★★★★★ $6 The Living EndJ. G. Thompson Jr. Over 200 different impromptu take-a-card trick endings.
From the introduction by John Braun:
He has definitely struck "pay dirt" in this book, which he has whimsically titled THE LIVING END. In simpler terms, this is an encyclopedic collection of endings for one of the most popular branches of Magic - the "take a card, look at a card, remember a card, think of a card, any card," opening.
Having completed this stage, the performer KNOWS either the identity of the card or its whereabouts in the pack, and sometimes he knows both.

Because of this the method is quite hidden and natural."... ★★★★★ $3 Snip-Snip Want Ad TestUlysses Frederick Grant ... person, a week or two prior to the show.

Reviewed by Trevor Fletcher I thought I was getting a new idea with this purchase. Maybe I should have read the 'fine print'. I have known this method since before I started getting into the performing side of mentalism/ magic. If you know a method for this effect that can be done impromptu, this is probably the same one. However, if this effect is new to you, then by all means, grab this one right now, it IS a great method for a nice effect. I just expected a new/different method is all. $20 Pocket Mysteries 2Gerard Zitta
"Zitta has done it again. He has completed a new work that is outstanding, practical, and mostly Impromptu. I don't know how he does it, ideas, brilliant ones, flow like water. Get this. And if you don't have them, get all his work. They bring me and the audience wonderment, joy, and workable thoughts. 5 out of 5" - Marc Salem

Four Queens are each seen in four glass tumblers facing outward. Each Queen is then turned back outward and returned to its glass. Three indifferent cards are placed in each glass with the first three Queens. The fourth Queen is left by herself in the fourth glass.
The performer waves his hands and the magic happens. The cards are removed from the first glass. There are only three cards, the Queen has vanished. This is repeated with the next two glasses. Finally, the card is removed from... ★★★★★ $10 Optical OpenerDavid Devlin ... that creates a photo that visually changes as it is turned over. David has created not one, but nine different illusion photos that you can use to perform this routine. These photos can be printed to different sizes and can even be placed on your electronic device so you can perform this illusion impromptu.
This is a great opening effect for adults, kids, close up shows, stage shows, and because the illusion works due to how the human brain processes visual information it is beyond perfect for mentalists.
Here is the routine: On the stage is a large picture of a famous celebrity (David... ★★★★★ $4 Vernon's 1-2-3 RevisitedIan Baxter A perennial favorite in card magic: A chosen card is lost in the deck and the performer, showing the Ace, Two and Three of one suit, offers to change whichever is picked into the selection. That is exactly what happens, with Baxter’s smooth method making good use of The Ascanio Spread, achieving just that. Full instructions given, straightforward and easy to learn.
This revision of the Vernon classic not only underlines the all-important simplicity angle by using a shortcut display move, but dispenses with Vernon's need for Palming. Bruce Elliott briefly touched on this in the concluding lines... ★★★★★ $4 Elective One-Eyed JacksIan Baxter That popular card plot One-Eyed Jack Sandwich is given a new lease of life here, with the assisting spectator being asked where the magic is to take place – within the deck or out of it. Themed after a 1930’s classic The Charmed Watch, this smooth handling is sure to delight the most fastidious card man.
The One-Eyed Jack Sandwich theme was popularized by Harry Lorayne. However, it was none other than the Australian Charles Wicks who started the ball rolling, with his contribution The Charmed Watch appearing in The Magic Wand journal over eighty years ago. Ian's streamlined version keeps within the guidelines of... Displaying 913 to 936 (of 959 products)
