Mavoch by Ori Ascher

Mavoch - magic

For a long time, my dream was to be able to reveal a thought-of PIN code, without the spectator appearing to give anything away. I read everything I could get my hands on that was relevant. I have always loved working with propless techniques, but when I examined it from all angles, I just couldn’t find anything that felt as clean as the vision in my head.

Along the way, I started to develop my own propless techniques that enabled me to slowly break through the limits of what could be achieved with what was already available. I realized that as well as taking me closer to my dream revelation, I was also building up a toolkit of propless techniques that could be applied in a whole range of different circumstances. Mavoch is the result of the journey that has overtaken my thought process for over a year. Within these pages, you will learn each of the techniques in that toolbox, and ultimately how they can be put together to form a super-powerful, propless PIN divination. Three versions are presented, but in many ways, this book is as much about the journey as the final destination — and what a journey it was.

Ramon Rioboo – Second Thoughts

“His effects fool me, and his ingenious methods amaze me.” –R. Paul Wilson

“Ramon Rioboo constructs card tricks with so many devious and interlocking layers of deception you just can’t crack the code.” –Steve Beam

“Wow! This new book is an incredible compendium of some genius-level thinking about card magic. Ramon’s forte is methods based on hidden mathematical principles, cunning psychological ploys and crafty stacks. Add in several innovative new sleights, some inspired use of gaffs and some extraordinary yet commercial presentations and you have a collection of fabulous new material that will be used by magicians for decades to come. But this book contains so much more. The theoretical underpinnings of Ramon’s style and approach are thoroughly examined and explained. And keener students will be pleased to know that’s just the start; Ramon discusses much of his philosophical research and conclusions about what makes for strong magic, powerful tricks and successful magicians.

 

If you like fooling other magicians, then this book has your name written all over it. If you are a professional performer, there are at least half-a-dozen killer tricks that you’ll want to add to your repertoire immediately. And I finally have an answer to my question: “If Einstein had been into card magic, I wonder what kind of book he would have written?” Now I know. Highest recommendation. – Mark Elsdon

Haim Goldenberg – CRYPTEXT

The Magician senses a strange feeling of familiarity with an audience member and asks for their name. The audience member’s name is written and placed onto the stage for everyone to see. A calculator is taken out and passed around the audience. The Magician asks the first member with the calculator to input any four digit number that has meaning to them and then the calculator is passed on. Numbers and equations are inputed into the calculator per each passing member. The final digit is totaled. The magician pulls out a sealed envelope with a prediction written before the show. The sealed envelope is passed onto a audience member to verify the envelope is sealed and is asked to read the prediction out loud. The audience member says a name. The same name as the audience member previously written on the board. The last member holding the calculator is introduced onto the stage and is asked to read the number. The magician asks the audience to turn the board with the audience member’s name upside down. It is revealed to be a peerfect match of the number just given.

Cut and Restored Silk

A handkerchief becomes visibly restored after being cut in half and the halves held well apart to prove that no trickery is involved. Indeed there is no trickery in the cutting, for both halves are quite separate. The effect has proved a great hit also, in the act of Will Ayling who used a regular linen handkerchief for its performance.

Phoa used to demonstrate and explain a version of this trick in the lecture he gave to Magical Societies and at Conventions, but the method he now uses and describes here is much superior. The first idea came from a version by Tan Hock Chuan published in the Sphinx magazine, but this was not self-contained and needed the aid of a top hat and a wand. Another version by Giampaolo Zelli required a thumb tip. Phoa has succeeded in eliminating all outstanding aids.

Ghost Kiss Psychokinetic Touches & Psychic PK Touches Outdone

Ghost Kiss Psychokinetic Touches &  Psychic PK Touches Outdone - magic

You already know the basic premise of the effect. Somebody feels that they were physically tapped on the shoulder or touched on some other area of their body whilst you stood a major distance from them. As the audience confirms, you never touched the volunteer of the experiment at any time.

No doubt you are also already aware that, in many other effects of this type, you ultimately do have to touch the volunteer — either yourself or using a gimmick under the cover of misdirection. (Such effects include Steve Banachek Shaw’s Psychokinetic Touches, Lior Manor’s Invisible Touches, Peter Turner’s Midas Touch on the one hand, all the way through to D’Angelo’s Touch and Morgan Strebler’s Touched.)
