“Ran and Andrew share some serious secrets to performing real-world material. This is my kind of magic!” – Dynamo
“Our mission with Conscious Magic is to elevate the art of magic by empowering performers to gain deeper insights into the creation, performance, and conceptualization of magic at a new level.” – Andrew Gerard and Ran Pink
“If I had a list of 10 mystery artists I’d like to be locked in a room with, Andrew Gerard and Ran Pink would be on that list. They constantly inspire me by stripping effects down to organic, seamless, simplistic moments of astonishment. To have these two modern-day masters brainstorming together is an opportunity I will not miss, and neither should you.” – Marc Spelmann
The performer utilizes a “special” app on their phone to seemingly read a spectator’s mind, only to reveal that there was no phone and no app! This creates an intriguing mystery about how the thought was divined. Deja Vu: The performer experiences a moment of Deja Vu, writes something down, and places it on the floor. The participant thinks of someone from their life, and the performer, experiencing another bout of Deja Vu, reveals the name written on the paper, matching the thought. Key Accessory: A normal key is selected, signed, and placed on a rubber band around the spectator’s wrist, where they feel it bend at their fingertips. This is more than just a metal bending effect; it’s an unforgettable experience. Decades ago, Richard Marx created Key Warper, and Andrew Gerard has crafted a routine that maximizes impact while concealing the method. Bidding Around: This is a prime example of Gerard’s unique style, turning a classic effect on its head and evolving it into an astonishing conclusion that leaves spectators questioning reality. Bonus: Dreamweaver (Gimmicks Included): Reveal your spectator’s thought-of dream without any fishing or peeks.
“Not only are the effects strong, but I especially love the dialogue between these two, and the insights and subtleties they give away are priceless.” – Haim Goldenberg
“Possibly the VERY BEST project I’ve seen in the field of mentalism. No mumbo-jumbo B#@%T – this is the real stuff. Can’t wait for the rest of the series – a game changer!” – Paul Romhany – Editor VANISH MAGIC MAGAZINE
