Product Overview

This physical product will be shipped directly to you, featuring three elegantly crafted plastic cards in a convenient wallet size. An additional card is provided for you to print at home. With proper care, these cards are designed to last a long time. You can instantly download the accompanying PDF from your digital shelf.

In essence, Trialogue represents a dialogue among three entities: the past, present, and future of the participant.

While the core principle is a classic, the presentation, premise, and props have been innovatively tailored for mind readers. The result is a stunning illusion that feels like genuine mind reading, delivering multiple moments of astonishment.

This mind reading marvel includes a set of four cards that fit easily in your wallet or pocket, allowing you to perform anytime, anywhere, for anyone. It’s perfect for one-on-one interactions or small close-up groups. There are no sleights, no pre-show setups, no stooges, and nothing to reset, making it instantly repeatable with varied outcomes. No spoken or written elements are involved.

The concepts of The Dead, The Living, and The Unborn correspond to the past, present, and future, respectively. Printable props are included, along with an alternate set of cards themed around Body, Mind, and Soul.

As an introduction to the main routine, you can opt to perform ‘SUBCONTEST’—a pseudo test designed to seemingly reveal the participant’s subconscious state. This printable prop is also included and can serve as a versatile tool in various mentalism routines.

“Trialogue by the Unknown Mentalist is nifty, an incredibly flexible past-present-future routine. It can play humorously or seriously, as a quick hit or in multiple phases, and big or small. As we’ve come to expect from the Unknown Mentalist, it uses a clever old-school principle and his signature optical illusions, which will fascinate audiences. I also appreciate his multiple alternative handlings to use as a springboard to making the routine your own. All in all, this is a small winner.” – Chris Fisanick

“The effect is pretty cool. The ‘focus’ card is terrific! I think I get slightly disoriented looking at it. And I also like the optical illusions you’ve chosen.” – Mark Piazza.

“The premise and presentation are right up my alley. I love mental effects that masquerade as readings. The method (with the blank backs) is definitely my preference. I don’t think I will use the ‘so fuc’ gag(?) – It wouldn’t offend many (and might amuse some). Testing the subconscious would work better for me. Thank you for sending Trialogue. I learned a new word and a very nice effect.” – Robin Gillett
