Earlier this week, theory11 had the opportunity to perform at one of the largest technology conferences in the world. Our goal was to demonstrate a piece of magic that was fun, offbeat, memorable, and (most importantly) had a presentation centered around technology. The result was an incredibly interactive routine that blew the minds of the entire Techcrunch Disrupt audience, as well as thousands of viewers at home. Close to 450 tweets were made during the performance in less than 5 minutes.
This week's contest is inspired by that same concept. Your task tonight is to film a video demonstrating an effect or routine that utilizes at least one piece of technology. The trick does NOT have to be original - but at least one electronic item must be used in the performance (cellphone, digital watch, computer, calculator, etc.). The performance can be as simple as a card revelation using your cellphone's caller ID feature or something more elaborate and interactive - the choice is yours.
Note that there is a limit of two video entries per participant, so make your submissions count! All videos should be uploaded to Youtube, Vimeo, or Drop.io and posted as a response to this thread no later than 11:00pm EST for judging. The winner tonight will take home three 1-on-1 training videos of your choice, on the house. Good luck guys!
