my last post on this thread was a while ago and i just saw david williamson's penguin lecture and he had something similar to the first phase and i got the sick dvd by ponta the smith and learned the second phase and just wanted to say that putting those two effects together was genius
I have also put a noncard matrix together which is inspired by Ponta the smith. Your routine is great, I'll be doing mine as part of my act at the Blackpool Magic Convention 2015. I'll try to post it here as a testing ground soon!
