DETAIL
Prepare to have your brain bubbling with ideas. A decade on from Oliver's bestsellers
The Plot Thickens and Plot Twists, he's back with a new book brimming with creativity.
Expect fresh plots, streamlined methods and playful audience interaction. Several of the tricks are also 'scalable', so they can play in both close-up and parlor performances.
Discover 19 tricks and 11 ideas (mostly cards, with a few exceptions), including: - The Other Three Magicians: Give three participants their own magic powers, so they can each experience being both audience member and magician.
- Kerchunk: A selection is found using a 'tweezers card' and ends up stapled to it.
- Synesthesia: Using magical means, you simulate a participant 'seeing' colors when hearing music.
- Trick of the Months: An ingenious lead-in to Shuffle-Bored for more meaningful predictions (assumes knowledge of Aronson's method).
- Drowning in Wallets: Finally, a fun way to use all those magic wallets sitting in your drawer.
- On Point: A game spinner is used to eliminate cards and find a signed selection in a surprising way.
- Pinky Perch: A walkaround workaround for when your audience have their hands full.
- Coin Jar: A coin vanishes from a participant's hand and penetrates a sealed jar of pasta sauce, with the safety button still down.
Plus, two essays on creativity to inspire your own thought bubbles. So, pour yourself a drink (sparkling or otherwise) and dive in.
Hardback, color cover, B&W interior, US Trade (6 x 9 in / 152 x 229 mm), 180 pages.
"There's always real joy in reading a new book by Oliver Meech, and he manages to be both creative and practical, a rare combination. His tricks use unique plots, novel methods, and I really enjoyed the theory he shares about creativity too. A great book, and an appropriate title, as it will make your brain fizz!" - Liam Montier "The one word that best describes exploring Oliver Meech's books and material over the years is simply "FUN!" And it must be all in capitals to emphasize just how fun it actually is!" - Nikola Arkane "I'm a huge fan of Oliver Meech but there has always been one thing I didn't like about his material - there simply wasn't enough of it! Well, he has remedied that, and in spades. ... There is so much brilliant material to read, study and learn here that it confirms what some of us have known for a while: Oliver is a genius when it comes to creating clever, offbeat and fooling magic. Put this on your 'Buy Immediately' list." - Mark Elsdon パッケージおおよその目安| 重さ: | 420.9g |
