An Interesting Effect Idea...

Hey all,

So I recently stumbled upon a method while I was messing with my phone and the basic premise is thus:

In front of the spectator you send them a text, be it via whatsapp or direct message or however, you then ask the spectator to think of any word, or city or card or number or whatever they want, they name it out loud and the message that you sent to the spectator matches 100%.

Does any such effect similar to this exist already?

I'm aware of Instinct by Alex Ward but the premise of that effect is entirely different to the one described above.

It was an accidental discovery so I'm quite curious with regards to its originality.

It sounds like a very powerful effect. Start brainstorming applications and presentations. When I first created my effect Electro this was some of the best advice I got. When you discover a new method you need to really run with it, se it upside down and backwards till you know it better than you ever thought. Odds are you will discover something brand new and better than what you thought in the first place.

Something like a confabulation routine sounds awesome.
