So ever since I got Adam Wilbur's PYRO WALLET - I've known about these heat activated business cards. The cards begin blank - you hand them out and slowly your business details begin to materialize. Well the people down at http://appearingbusinesscards.com/ reached out to me and asked me if I'd review their product, so here it is.
The Long and the short of it ... Specifically designed for magicians these hand printed cards literally appear to print themselves right in front of your spectator’s eyes and in their hands. Visually it looks like an impossible special effect. Do you have your own design already? No problem! Choose single or double sided and upload your design. Prices range from $150 on up |

Why do you point at the camera so much?

I really like the idea, especially for my mentalism show. The problem I have is they are just too thin and thin. Do you still use them, and what is your experience now?

Don't you think people know of this technology? And if so isn't it far less magical?

No, but I'm sure they know magic is not real. It is entertainment.

So why use slights at all then? Why call it magic at all? Once they tumble to it being the method what is so entertaining anyhow?
Specifically for mentalism you end up with you forcing the object or name or knowing ahead of time. It really falls apart fast when tech is readily spotted.

No, Just as a business card. I stay away from tech in my shows.

I guess I'll continue to make my business card information and images appear by using my card skills - the good old double lift. There. I just saved hundreds of dollars.
