"The Dark Side of the Cube - Revelations" is the second and last volume of The Dark Side of the Cube project.

In 2018 Diego Vol ni introduced a Rubik's cube stack, which was de?ned by many as a game changer in Rubik's cube magic. The stack allows you to blind solve any face matching a color that is freely called out by a spectator. The stack, combined with the Rolling Solve technique, not only gives you the ability to solve the face without looking at the cube but also without the audience even realizing you are turning the faces.

In "The Dark Side of the Cube - Revelations" you will be provided with 12 scripted routines which will allow you to unleash the full potential of The Dark Side of the Cube concept combined with new techniques which can be used with both regular cubes and mini cubes and don't require any painful memory work or ?nger-?inging moves.

It is highly recommended that you own "The Dark Side of the Cube" book since many routines contained in this new publication require techniques explained in the previous volume.

CONTENTS

INSTANT BAG SOLVE: A bag solve where your hands ALWAYS stay in full sight.

CUBIE SOLVE: One face of a mini cube solves by itself by squeezing the cube in your hand.

IMPROMPTU STACKING: You blind solve the face matching a color freely selected by a spectator on a borrowed cube.

THE COLOR IN YOUR EYES: A color freely selected by a spectator is amazingly divined by another participant.

KUB: A mental routine full of comedy bits sponsored by the best-known Swedish furnishings brand in the world.

CUBOX: A stage routine where Rubik's cube meets Tic-Tac-Toe for a mind-blowing show stopper.

ROTATIONS: Techniques to hide a solved face while rotating the cube in your hands.

... AND MUCH MORE. The book also contains the Fortune Folding Force, a clever device to force ANYTHING on a spectator disguised by an innocent fortune telling game.

REVIEW FOR THE FIRST BOOK - IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

Magic Review: The Dark Side of the Cube by Diego Voltini

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYmXZNFRC9M

Within the field of Rubik's Cube's magic, filled with effects focused mainly on solving and matching, The Dark Side of the Cube stands out from the crowd.

The Dark Side of the Cube is an astounding mental act with a regular Rubik's Cube, accompanied by an original and entertaining presentation that will keep your audience engaged.

In effect a spectator freely thinks of one out of six colors. The magician shows a scrambled Rubik's Cube and starts rolling the cube between his hands. Without turning the faces of the cube, the face matching the color the spectator is thinking of solves by itself.

Italian magician Diego Voltini loves mathematical challenges and spent ages trying to find a simple and effective solution that requires minimal memory work, no difficult sleights, no angle restrictions and no gimmicks but your everyday Rubik's Cube.

To perform The Dark Side of the Cube, you don't need to know how to solve a Rubik's Cube. In this 90-page book, you will be guided step-by-step through the method and learn every move thanks to crystal clear illustrations and diagrams. Even if you need some practice, your audience's reaction will be well worth the effort.

In addition, the book contains an in-depth analysis of false shuffles and thought-provoking essays about magic with a Rubik's Cube.

USE A REGULAR RUBIK'S CUBE
NO DIFFICULT MOVES OR FINGER TRICKS
MINIMAL MEMORY WORK
CAN BE PERFORMED IN ANY VENUE AND WITH ANY ANGLE
