Don't get 13 Steps first, the book is great but it can and most likely be very overwhelming to most people. I would recommend getting Fundametals first for many reasons. It is apt more enjoyable to read, it makes sense reading it from page one and it is a lot more modern. Learning from Corinda...

I have been watching this at a distance and decided to weigh in on it. Intellectually people know that magic is not real, no matter how well the suspend their belief for ultmately they come back to reality. Mentalism when performed well has the ability to have the audience accept your lie...

Universal imagination is an Andrew Gerard effect that uses three imaginary coins placed into pockets. Universal Impression is an impression pad that is very nice but in my eyes has too many flaws that other pads don't.

Intersting idea. However I work a lot in bars where things like dates are quite hard to see. Also it does not really fit into my 'power' as much as something like Universal Imagination does.

I will shoot you a PM Matt.

Yes any three objects can be used however they really need to be about the same size of else the audience will make up a psuedo method that is close to the actual one.

I understand whole heartedly that most people will think nothing of it but I try to keep my props to natural and a minimum. Although when I when I am working I do have a Zener deck on me aswell. I like things that feel natural and have multiple uses. Just if anyone is wondering my...

But I have never met someone who has poked chips in their pockets outside of a casino. Especially just three of them.

Dee knows what I think if this effect. I love it but for some reason I don't peform it as often as I'd like to. I am not too big on carrying around things that seem like they are out of place. A deck of cards is about as far as I will go.

I personally have no real opinions either way on it. I mean fir me it is a very much love hate kind of deal. I love the impressions you get from it but I find it is more trouble than it is worth. I mean to hide it in a pad it is a fairly decent task and you need the pad the marker and the reset...

There are a few effects that I perform in which the audience remembers better than the others. My blindfold routine is always up there for the reason that it is so visual as my face is covered in duct tape. There are a few other pieces I get brought up quite a lot and they are as follows. Pk...

Mike Hankins has a beautiful idea where he vanishes their signature and then signs the card himself.

I know the histroy of magic is important but why do you care? Planing to release the effect? I also gave the name of the ACR that Wilson uses it in.

It has been done many times before. Sankey has something similar somewhere but hs presentation is that he wipes the ink off one card onto an other. Greg Wilson has it as the last phase of his blank out ACR. Sorry kid perform it all the more but nothing original.

I just PM'ed you

not much information on Copperfield? There are 82 reference links on wikipedia alone and that took all of 3 seconds to find.

There are so many however the three that I would choose are Berglas, Randi vs. Uri (among others) and obviously Copperfield. Doug Henning could easily replace Berglas but being a mentalist he has a huge part in my heart. You are better off using people everyone has heard of because whilst...

I amsure that it can be found on Money with Jay over at penguin. You really should ask you questions in your title as let people know what you want first though.

If you are going to do a newspaper thing why don't you just ask me for my handling. It is inspired by Derren, however it is slightly more reliable than his (I am assuming). I will pm the work on it in a little while. P.S. This is the first time I am giving you something that is actually still...

There are other websites you can buy from. I would put Chris Mayhew's and Caleb Wiles' books over anything released by t11 in the last year. Well not Foundations or stairway but that is about it.
