Dull, well that's personal opinion. I didn't like the table cuts, but from there I did take away a fair portion, I don't see why someone couldn't learn from it, given adequate time, the teaching's fine. Although, I do have to say, stuff like Impossible Stack Closer - if you're just starting, you might have difficulty learning stuff like that if you're not used to, I had to come back to it.

Back onto control... I have to point anyone interested towards Steerpike's post (too lazy to find it though) about who would be suited to this kind of effect... Personality/presentation wise, it is after all a very serious effect.

which is why i wont get it? O-o ...im planning on getting distortion instead or something around that area, altho i think i alredy know how the gimmick works and can figure out the rest on my own, i guess ill still get it. ive seen most of cyrils (famous japanese magician) tricks, and he performed with this gimmick. which cught my attention a while back...now, wayne houchin came up with a trick with this, haha...i find it a wierd coincidence.

Not a coincidence so much as a contrivance.

Most magicians don't market effects until they've been working with them for a while. Cyril more than likely called in Wayne as one of his consultants for one or more of his TV specials.

IIRC Cyril performed like a 2 of clubs to a three of clubs, in which case he probably made his own gimmick...

The moving pips concept has been around for awhile.
