I have been doing mostly mentalism for over 30 years and must say I have never seen this exact technique and like it. Note, this doesn't require posits and other materials may work as well or better. I too had some issues with reliability but found some tips on the Penguin forum for this item.

And I too agree the ad video have cuts and edits. But, even if I had the chance to see the full video and play it multiple times and pause in here and there. I might had a few suspiciousness. But honestly, I think I would never imagine how it really work. |

I'm guessing you need a pencil? I don't really use pencils a lot in performance.

So saying that, and having performed this so frequently, I must respectfully disagree that the method telegraphs itself. I have done this on stage and close up and haven't been caught out once. Now, you may have a different experience and so if you are interested, I'll offer up some advice that will help your credibility: You must yourself be credible, and have worked to establish your credibility. This is something I addressed in my Penguin lecture, but I have three methods I'll use close up to do a drawing duplication - and one of them involves the participant never actually making the drawing anywhere but in their mind. If I can reveal that, then when one is actually drawn out, there is no heat on the drawing because everyone has seen me reveal a picture that only ever existed in a person's head. My credibility is established across the use of numerous methods so that in those instances when someone doesn't buy in straight away and holds back reservations, when they see the same EFFECT happen again (with a different methodology), any theory they entertained is undermined, and when it is repeated yet again (with another different method), their theory is undermined further until eventually the only possible answer is that it could indeed be real. The more I perform, the more I believe that presentation is everything and so I'd encourage you to mix this in with other methods you use and you'll find it is indeed invisible, especially when blended in a group of methods. Best, Atlas |

Clever. Elegant. Has some tradeoffs, but all peeks do. I'm sure it'll find it's way into my arsenal. And like Atlas mentioned, this is just one more (great) method that you can use to cancel your other methods for creating this effect.

Funny, I don't remember anything in the description for this saying you had to flawlessly perform two other, better, mind reading effects before performing this one in order to establish enough credibility with the specs that you can get away with this one. ONLY KIDDING ;-) Anyway, I'm off to work on my credibility which is clearly lacking |

One confusion I still have is that in your message to me you said :
"The more I perform, the more I believe that presentation is everything and so I'd encourage you to mix this in with other methods you use and you'll find it is indeed invisible, especially when blended in a group of methods." But for the TAKE NOTE marketing blurb there is another quote from you stating: "As soon as I saw it, I knew I was DONE with every other method." -Atlas Brookings Just saying |

Hi Atlas,
I didn't take it as criticism you were trying to be constructive and I was trying to be jovial in the acceptance of my meagre abilities. :-) |

As with everything in life, not everyone is going to like something but most people will love this.
Someone wrote that it was elegant, which is a pretty good description. It's so simply brilliant. Love it. Well worth the $10 spent. |

I decided to purchase...I don't regret it. I do see how this doesn't appeal to everyone, but it fits my style.
Thanks to Seamus and Atlas, this is my new main method for a peek. Zack |
