Blindsight by Devin Knight

Blindsight gained significant attention at the 2006 Mindvention, astonishing everyone who witnessed it.

Part of Devin Knight’s Psychic-Sight series, following the successful Farsight, Blindsight showcases an incredible illusion of perceiving colors and shapes that are otherwise invisible. The effect involves a straightforward experiment with four ungimmicked colored cards: Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow. These cards are placed in four opaque envelopes, mixed, and presented to the spectator, who is unaware of which color is in which envelope. The spectator freely points to any envelope, and you ask them to guess the color inside. For instance, if they choose Blue, you write “Blue” on that envelope. This process is repeated with the remaining envelopes, allowing the spectator to make their own choices each time.

• NO Two-Sided color cards
• NO Nailwriters or Boomwriters
• NO Secret Writing
• NO Switches
• NO Sleights of any kind
• NO One Ahead or One Behind Methods
• NO Gimmicked Envelopes
• NO Magnets
• NOTHING SECRETLY ADDED OR TAKEN AWAY
• Color Cards are not gimmicked in any way
• Only 4 Cards are used.

The choices made by the spectator are entirely free, ensuring a clean presentation. The method is crafted to prevent both spectators and magicians from deducing how the effect is achieved. This is another reputation-building effect offered at an incredibly low price, complete with color cards, envelopes, a marker, and all necessary components to perform.
