“A cleverly simple yet deceptive method for a hands-off miracle. This can also be presented as a long-distance ‘Card At Number’ that’s powerful enough to conclude your show.” – Michael Weber

“Manhattan Transfer is a lie detector test featuring free choices and real magic. Max’s placement technique has me baffled even after seeing the explanation.” – Jared Kopf

“I love it! Finally, a straightforward version of a ‘Lie Speller’ routine that’s easy to perform and follow for participants. You also receive a PDF that makes any improvisation a breeze!” – Jan Forster

In today’s unique environment, magicians and mentalists are adapting to new conditions. Performances are now conducted remotely via Zoom, FaceTime, Skype, and other platforms. Creating wonder in these often limited circumstances can be challenging.

Fortunately, you have a guide who has navigated these new territories for years. MAX MAVEN has been a pioneer in interactive magic for over four decades, crafting powerful routines that engage audiences in virtual settings. Embark on your journey into the digital realm with Manhattan Transfer.

Here’s how it works:

It’s always more captivating when done with the participant’s own deck of cards. It doesn’t need to be a full pack, and everything remains unseen. The deck is shuffled, and the participant chooses their card, which is then lost in the deck—its exact position unknown even to them. They answer a series of questions about their card, spelling the answers while dealing cards. The twist? They can either lie or tell the truth, leaving the performer in the dark. Yet, they always end up on their own card!

Manhattan Transfer is part of the Virtual Visions series, where you will discover six practical routines that require no complex gimmicks. There’s no pre-show or private conversation with a single spectator to fool the rest. Nothing is sent in advance. These effects can be performed for an individual or a large virtual audience. As a special bonus, if you purchase all six together, you’ll receive them at a discounted price, plus an additional video where Max Maven discusses the History of Virtual Magic. This insightful talk is exclusively available with the complete set.
