Hey guys, hope everyone is having a great start to the weekend! If you haven't seen it already, Neil Patrick Harris was featured in Vanity Fair doing some magic - without using his hands! The effect in question is the Self Tying Shoelaces, which is a simple modern classic ever since David Blaine performed it on television. It takes an everyday problem and turns the solution into something magical. That's the inspiration behind this week's contest.
Your challenge is to create and/or perform an effect that is a magical solution to an every day problem OR an effect that replicates real powers. It also doesn't have to be a practical method. It could be a method can only be viewed from only specific angle. Whatever you choose, we want you to use some creativity, make it a smooth performance with no flashing, and make it as believable as possible. That is the judging criteria for this contest.
Upload your performances to either YouTube, Vimeo, or Instagram (hashtag it #theory11) and post the link to your video in response to THIS forum thread by no later than 11:00pm EST, Sunday, April 15th.
What can you win this week? 1,000 Elite Points, Self Tying Shoelaces by Jay Noblezada, and a deck of Gold Monarchs, shipped on the house, anywhere in the world.
Good luck!
