Alain Nu – Word Work 2

Format: PDF

This latest release unveils a collection of innovative techniques, emphasizing Alain Nu’s preferred impromptu methods. Mastering these skills will equip you to execute a compelling range of book test effects, even in the most demanding situations.

Now, spectators can approach you with their own book, magazine, or newspaper, and you will effortlessly rise to the occasion with various word-test effects, requiring no prior setup.

In 1994, Alain quietly shared insights on impromptu book test concepts, some of which have evolved into coveted underground classics. Previously kept away from the mainstream magic community, Alain has now launched his updated work under the Shop Of Secrets banner, featuring much of the content that has never been published before.

While many gimmicked book tests on the market can be expensive, Alain Nu offers you the knowledge to perform incredible word test presentations using anyone’s borrowed book at a fraction of the usual cost. Like all impactful mystery demonstrations, the techniques presented here will require practice and rehearsal, but the rewards are well worth the effort. Highlights include:

• Ten insightful principles and philosophical perspectives that may transform your approach to performing book tests.
• Seven distinct “complete effects” that delve into the possibilities of impromptu book tests and word tests, each capable of standing alone as a unique presentation.
• A diverse array of unconventional methods, including subtle physical blocking and audience management techniques, along with straightforward yet clever principle-based strategies.
• Thorough explanations paired with clear illustrations, ensuring easy comprehension of each principle’s motivation.
• The seventh effect features a “bonus effect” by Alain’s close friend, Professor Kevin Dunn, which incorporates poetry—one of Alain’s cherished “performance art” mentalism routines.
