Mr. Reynolds was kind enough to send me a copy of his latest effect and I have had a few days to give it a good look. That said, I offer a little food for thought. Enjoy. Smile

Pyrexia by Bryn Reynolds

Description / Effect: The performer displays six business-sized cards. Each has a different arcane symbol printed on its face. The back of each card is unmarked and is a nice blue color. The cards are placed face up on the table in a haphazard fashion so that all of the symbols can be seen. While the performer is legitimately turned away the spectator is invited to pick up whichever symbol they feel most closely represents their personality.


They are then instructed to hold onto the card and to stare into the symbol, to project their aura into it, thinking silently of a few reasons that this symbol matches their personality. The spectator is the told to place that symbol, face up, on top of any other symbol and to then place all of the other symbols face up on top of those and to square up the packet. They are then instructed to cut the packet to loose the card....the performer never peeks during any of this...



The performer turns around and starts to detail aspects of the spectator's personality even before picking up the cards. The card faces are then show singly to the spectator as they concentrate on their symbol. Of course, the performer is able to correctly discern their freely thought-of symbol and reveals it in his most charming manner, all the while detailing how this symbol does fit the spectator's personality

This little mental marvel operates exactly like the description above reads. No pipe dreams, just some very strong magic. As I've said in the past, I may not be a mentalist, but I can recognize a good concept when I see one.

So what do you get for that hard earned magical dollar?
First, four pages of well written instructions that will have you amazing folks in very little time at all. Along with the stapled booklet you receive an envelope containing six special cards, each card having a different and unique symbol printed on their face. The instructions teach you the method (which is very clever) and a basic routine. However, their are several bonus routines included and I'm sure any serious performer will no doubt develope their own applications.

The trick is quite easy to grasp and perform, but you will need to develope a certain pace and timing to be successful. This is not hard to do and after a few practice sessions you should be comfortable with the modus operandi. Mentalists will no doubt have fun with this but this would also make a great mental effect for us standard magic folk. I'll close by saying the effect is strong, the learning curve is short and the price is right, what more can one ask for? Recommended. Smile
