I was sitting in a lecture the other day and I decided I wanted to do some magic for my freind sitting next to me to brighten the dreary time up, even though she hadn't asked.
I don't carry anything magic orientated on me, so if someone asked to see something I probably couldn't (other than maybe the arm twister or a little coin magic).
Anyway I noticed her bag down by my feet, which gave me the idea. I very sneakily removed her Switch card from her purse. I own the exact same switch card myself. So now I had two switch cards, I aligned them both to make them look like one. I showed her the back of my card and explained how I'd mucked up the signature a bit and did she think it mattered? After that I took the card and threw down, face-up, in front of her and copped away my card that had previously been at the back of hers. Now she was seeing her name printed on the front of a card that she had just seen my signature on the back of! She turned over the card quickly in shock to reveal it was now her signature on the back of her card and it actually was her card. I though this was a pretty cool imprompru credit card type trick.
What other kind of effects do you think you could perform with no props but otherwise time to think about it?
As a magicians (if we are in the mood) maybe we should always be looking at the situation we are in, thinking: how can I do something with this here?
Cheers
