BOOK CONTENTS
REVELATION
The mind reader presents a drawing to an audience member, instructing them to keep it hidden. A participant is chosen at random to think of a letter, which they then use to create a new mental image. When the drawing is revealed, it perfectly matches their thought!
COLOR VISION
In a fascinating exploration of color psychology, the performer shows an envelope and three colored cards. The participant selects two cards, and after shuffling, a new color emerges in their mind. The mentalist accurately reads their personality and divines the chosen color, revealing their influence over the decision.
A SECRET MEMORY
The participant reflects on several personal memories, focusing on just one. The performer then reveals the exact memory, detailing its nuances!
A HANDFUL OF MIRACLES
In this mind suggestion experiment, the mentalist emphasizes an envelope’s importance. The spectator randomly transfers matches between their hands, making free choices. At the conclusion, the mentalist reveals not only which hand holds the matches but also the precise number concealed!
HAILED NOSTRUM
This innovative method for the classic ‘Which Hand’ effect relies on psychological principles rather than gadgets. It enhances the entertainment value and justification of the performance.
THE FORTUNE TELLER
A female participant selects three random objects and makes choices entirely in her mind. The mind reader later asks her to disclose her actions, revealing a prediction from an envelope that matches her decisions perfectly!
INSIGHT
The participant thinks of a color, a desired travel destination, and a celebrity, all concealed in an envelope. The mentalist writes down his impressions, revealing two correct guesses before humorously suggesting a different celebrity, which the participant confirms as accurate!
EXTRAORDINARY PERCEPTION
The mentalist displays a set of ESP symbols, allowing the spectator to shuffle and create piles. After the participant discards some, the mentalist divines the exact symbol from the final pile, showcasing an impossible feat!
