A groundbreaking exploration of mastering the illusion of free will. This comprehensive collection features 15 unique routines, contributions from esteemed guests, and stunning production quality.
Originally introduced by Deddy Corbuzier in 2004, the Free Will routine has become a staple in modern mentalism. Mark Chandaue has dedicated nearly a decade to refining this concept, sharing insights with select colleagues but keeping the complete work private until now. This is your chance to learn from a true expert in the field.
With a rich history of practical, audience-tested material, Mark has built a reputation for excellence in magic and mentalism over 40 years. His previous works, Harpacrown and Ophiuchus, have set high standards for quality and effectiveness.
Totally Free Will is a beautifully illustrated 176-page collector’s edition, crafted by Haresign Press and featuring a foreword by Deddy Corbuzier. Contributions from notable figures like Mick Wilson, Steve Drury, Stephen Young, Drew Backenstoss, Mark Elsdon, Michael Murray, and Patrick Redford enhance this exceptional work.
Inside, you’ll find 15 innovative takes on the Free Will concept, showcasing diverse presentations and techniques that often feel like entirely new effects. From graphology and voice readings to predictions and even a phone performance, these routines push the boundaries of mentalism. The title routine ensures every choice feels free, with an unmistakable prediction held by the participant before any decisions are made.
Additionally, the book includes a detailed explanation of Mark’s Chandauelope, a versatile utility device used by many prominent mentalists, now expanded to accommodate up to six outs.
Totally Free Will stands as the most thorough examination of the Free Will theme available today.
