"Instant recall of the position of ANY card in a memorized deck"
Isn't that just the definition of a memorized deck? |

If you are familiar with programming languages like Java and Python, I think Craig's system works like a pointer that stores a memory address. So, the magician can recall the position of ANY card in a memorized deck with the help of a pointer. The pointer is openly displayed and the spectator cannot identify the pointer because it is protected with an encryption to prevent "unauthorized access". Only the magician who learns Craig's system, knows the encryption. Forecast will allow any beginner or seasoned magician to perform some of their favorite tricks that requires specific stack system like Aronson Stack, Redford Stack, Tamariz Stack to achieve the desired effect without memorizing the stack itself. |

This looks good. I really don't know a mem deck stack, but this seems like a good initial way to dive into it

Hey everyone. Thanks for talking about forecast
The reason a lot of magicians do not memorise the memorised deck is because there is a high and steep learning curve. Once you have it memorised you then have to go out and rely on instant recall. This project attempts to change that. I start by talking about the different types of mem decks out there and how to actually memorise the deck and make sure it stays in your long-term memory as opposed to forgetting it. I also go through several full shuffles and force cuts that you can throw into your work However the most important aspect of the project is the tricks. Three of the tricks are self working. Even though they use a Mem deck you don’t need to know the stack at all. These are really powerful routines that give you confidence to go out into a real performing situation and try out the stack without worrying about what happens if you forget. The next three routines use a gimmick that is included in the project. The gimmick hides in plain sight and is incorporated into the routine in a very natural way. This allows you to be able to check the memorisation of the deck in real time. It also means that the routines do not require instant recall which means that very easy to do with a gimmick. The remaining routines do require instant recall and are three of the strongest routines that I perform in my act. The idea is by presenting a series of tricks the learning curve becomes gradual instead of steep. It’s basically a zero to hero with the memorised deck Nothing on the project to stack dependent and there is I think over five hours of performances and explanations. It’s basically everything I know and I think other people need to know about this subject and you’re getting all of my best work with this tool. I hope that makes sense but if you have any questions please let me know |

This will definitely be worth getting as anything that Craig releases is very good & extensive.
He always gives A lot of bang for buck . He goes out of his way to give you the best & as I have had an interest in memorised decks for many years since sitting opposite David Berglas in his home in Barnet & getting absolutely wiped out with his ACAAN , I will be getting this . My preferred stack ( even though I have had both Simons & Tamariz is the 6 hr Memorised Stack by Martin Joyal. A side note is that for me ( as a working pro.) is that you only need a handful of GOOD mem. deck routines to work in the real world as you ain’t got time to do 37 spelling effects & 93 gambling routines at each group of people. I think Craigs 9 effects will definitely be very & more than hit the target . Another great release by Craig ( I think ) which I WILL be getting as soon as it hits my local MagicBox . |

This looks like a fascinating project, but surely any memorised deck routine is only as good as your false shuffle.

It seems that some performers will shuffle non stop throughout a trick to try and convince their audiences that everything is normal. Think about performing a trick with a shuffled deck. Many times you will just go into a selection procedure and not bother with a shuffle. It’s basically running when you aren’t being chased. I talk about using false cuts and false shuffles and how they should be used sparingly throughout routines. A lot of the routines are designed so that no shuffling is required at all. In fact if the cards were shuffled it would lessen the impact of the routine. Having said all that there is a section on the download where I talk about some of my favourite false cuts and shuffles and explain them in detail. I hope that helps. |

Thanks Craig, I've always struggled to learn a mem deck so maybe this is for me 😀
