Mickael Chatelain – Card on Ribbon

Card on Ribbon by Mickael Chatelain

We are pleased to offer you today a true classic of card magic in a completely new version – a version that will baffle even those who perform the original effect!

Effect:

Show your audience a closed card case. Show that it has a hole through it from front to back.
Hand out a ribbon for examination and allow a spectator to thread it through the hole.

No illusion: The case and the deck are both strung on the ribbon, as the hole through the deck aligns with the hole through the case.
Remove the ribbon, open the case, and take out the deck in front of the spectators. Show that there’s nothing hidden in the case and give it out for examination, if you wish.
Show the deck on both sides. Aside from the hole through each card, it’s an ordinary deck.

A spectator freely chooses a card, let’s say the five of hearts.
The card, which can be signed, is lost in the deck, which is then cleanly replaced in its case.

Show everything from all sides. As the case is open, everyone can see the cards inside.

Now invite your spectator to thread the ribbon through the case with the cards inside.

Explain to your spectator that it is completely impossible to free any one card without damaging it or cutting the ribbon. This is so obvious, no one will contradict you.
With the case still open, and the spectator having a firm hold on the ends of the ribbon, the escape of any card would be totally impossible!
With your thumb and forefinger, you then gently pull out one card from the deck, then yank it free.

There you are with one card in hand – a lone, liberated card! You now show the card to your spectator – of course, it’s the five of hearts previously chosen!
How is this possible, since the hole through the five is still intact, with absolutely no damage?
The card seems to have passed through the ribbon by magic.
And yet, the ribbon still binds the rest of the cards in the deck! Remove the deck from the case and immediately pass it out for examination.
As your spectator can see, the ribbon still passes through all of the cards except for the one “escapee,” the five of hearts!

Remember these important points:

– NO forcing!
– COMPLETELY free choice!
– VERY easy to do!
– The DECK and the CASE are examinable!
– INSTANT reset.
– The GIMMICK takes care of EVERYTHING!
– ONLY the chosen card escapes!

No doubt that this escape will leave your audience speechless!

Delivered complete with cards, ribbon, gimmick, and explanatory video.

Christopher Carter – Penguin Live 2(VIP)

"I've know Christopher since many years, have seen him live in performances and lecturing - and gosh, is he good! I adore his thinking and routining immensely. One of the best pros I've ever seen! If you cannot learn from him, who could help you? He is not only a fantastic performer, but also a great teacher. Get his lecture as soon as possible!" -Jan Forster

"Chris's first Penguin Live lecture is one of the elite few that I refer back to on a regular basis. He gifted us all with the total package -practical advice, brilliant thinking, refined presentations, bullet-proof methods, and entertaining real-world performance footage. If you own that lecture, the "sequel" is a no-brainer. If you don't yet have it, do your yourself a favor and invest in both! I'm confident you won't be disappointed. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from a man who has entertained and mystified more audiences than just about anyone else in the business!" -Drew Backenstoss

"Christopher Carter has been performing mentalism professionally longer than pretty much anyone. His style has always ensured his shows are fresh, engaging, and truly entertaining. The methods you're going to learn here are not pipe dreams, this is material that has been refined in front of real audiences for decades! There are very few people I would prefer didn’t do a Penguin lecture because their stuff is too good. Christopher is one of these people. In fact having to write this to tell you that he's amazing is most infuriating.'- Colin McLeod

"Lots of Magicians give strong, creative lectures. Some magicians are busy doing shows for good fees. Only a few performers check both of those boxes. Christopher Carter, I know first-hand, is in that elite group."- Ken Weber

"Christopher Carter can do it all. His college shows are legend, his stage act uncanny. As a writer he can script the most brilliant shows. His inventiveness provides a lesson for all mentalists. His work ethic is untouchable, his humor is gentle. If you can learn anything from this true giant of modern mentalism, I promise it can help your career or show. I am proud to have learned from him.....but I can never duplicate his focus and inventiveness."- Marc Salem

"Christopher Carter is one of my favorite inventors in modern mentalism. His material is among the very bet of its kind in the word—clear, direct, imaginative, hard hitting—and in the heat and pressure of several thousand live performances it has been forced into something of uncommon strength and power. I will remember the first time I saw him for the rest of my life and the more I learn about his work the more amazing it becomes. I would travel more-or-less any distance to hear him discuss his material and will be watching and studying this lecture again and again."–Nate Staniforth

"Christopher Carter is one of the busiest mentalists working today, and there’s a good reason for that. When creating his material he leaves no stone unturned. Every single step has been meticulously thought out for maximum impact. Any time I can learn from Chris I jump at the chance, because I know what he has to offer will be gold."– Eric Dittelman

What will he teach?

Memories- Five audience members merely think of memories from their past, the mentalist divines them in detail. At no time do the audience members write down their thoughts or speak them to anyone.

Key-Know Revisited- A streamlined handling of T.A. Waters under-appreciated gem, Key-Know, along with a powerful presentation.

Paintball Roulette- A fun and suspenseful Russian Roulette with ungimmicked paintball guns. A staple of Christopher’s College shows for many years.

The Story of Jack Spade, New Age Detective- Not mentalism, but mentalism adjacent. A mind-reader’s take on the classic story deck, Diamond Jack.

Telepathy in the Parlor- A startling telepathic routine involving the entire audience. One audience member chooses a single individual from among the entire audience whose mind the mentalist should read. The mentalist then reveals that person’s innermost thoughts, and finally reveals that he had predicted exactly who would be selected to be his target.

GeoPsycho- A drawing duplication in which the drawing is never written down. It exists only in the mind of the spectator, yet the mentalist duplicates the thought-of drawing.

What will he teach?

Stage Mentalism Act.

Tossed Out Deck- Christopher's take on the classic, filtered through 30 years and thousands of performances.

Three Billet Routine- A real “worker.” Three minds are read under seemingly impossible conditions.

That's So Cute- A non-gimmicked approach to Staple Gun Roulette that builds to a startling climax.

Horse Fly- A powerfully theatrical version of Art Emerson’s classic Pegasus Page

Miracle- Seven people mix up jumbo alphabet cards and select letters. The mentalist, without looking at them, plays a stage sized game of scrabble, creating the best words possible with their letters. This is a mentalist’s version of a stage illusion. It plays HUGE

Ring Tone- The entire audience writes their cellphone numbers down on cards. A volunteer selects one card and enters the number into his phone, preparing to dial. The mentalist locates the person in the audience whose phone is about to ring.

The Broom and The Watch- A psychokinetic stage illusion. A borrowed broom is balanced across an inverted glass so that it resembles the hour hand of a watch. The mentalist makes it rotate under seemingly impossible conditions.

Lewis Le Val – Star Maps(VIP)

Star Map By Lewis Le Val and The 1914 (Video+PDF)

magine being able to sense the star sign of a complete stranger.

Star Map gives you this apparent ability without requiring ANY physical props. Best of all, it’s completely impromptu meaning you’ll always have the perfect ice breaker for any occasion.

Many mentalists claim their first effect is to “establish a connection” with their participant. Star Map is perfect for this because a connection really IS being established; both physically and on a deeper, emotional level.

Here’s what happens:

Your spectator holds their hand against yours and you begin a visualisation exercise. Together you imagine the constellations of the night sky orbiting around you. As the stars come into focus, you are able to look your spectator in the eye and tell them exactly what their star sign is.

In theory, propless mentalism is the holy grail of the art. But in reality, the effects often rely on difficult-to-follow instructions with a high risk of failure. Star Map avoids these propless pitfalls; it’s very EASY for your spectator to follow and success is as good as guaranteed.

There are no anagrams, no mathematics and no dual reality; just solid, propless, hard-hitting mentalism.

Tony has found a way to motivate and elevate the classic and powerful Gypsy Thread trick into a truly powerful piece of magic and theater.

Contents:

Mind Reader’s Lucid Dream

The spectator freely thinks of any card (no force or peeks). The magician then tells them not only which card they are thinking of, but also cuts directly to the card and it’s three mates from a shuffled deck.

Mirrored Coincidence:

The magician and spectator each take half a deck of cards are split them in half, it is then revealed that they have cut directly to a four of a kind.

Off-centre Coincidence:

The spectator and magician each shuffle half a deck of cards and remember a card. The cards are then shuffled together and split into two, however amazingly, when cards are dealt out the chosen cards are at equal positions.

“Justin has created moves that are truly original and he performs them to perfection”

Dai Vernon

“Justin is an incredibly talented and prolific creator, thinker and technician with playing cards”

Benjamin Earl

“Justin is one of the best card magicians I know, his depth of knowledge and understanding of card magic is inspiring”
