Arsenian, it looked fantastic! I loved the casual displays and seemingly out of control nature of the beginning of the routine.

You might consider looking at Ramon Rioboo's Control in Chaos in Mnemonica.

My favorite routine is to start with Aronson's Point Spread which concludes with a version of Shuffleboard. I've got a method of setting it up impromptu which allows for putting it at the end of a set.
Control in Chaos is a great recommendation.

No matter. But, these actions do remind me of the saying: "If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough".

And, a bit late now, but check out Joshua Jay's Penguin Live Lecture (the second one) for an incredible impromptu version (as an alternative to the equalizer). There is a fun way of shuffling too which involves lots of specs.

Yeah, Barry, the newbies just don't know about the "good stuff." (I assume that they think they do!)

Reading this thread has prompted me to re-read Shuffle Bored (Aronson) and Wait Until Dark (Bannon).
I have watched many performances on YouTube that involved multiple predictions, culminating in the "except for" kicker. I always assumed I was watching Shuffle Bored. But whilst Simon Aronson explored many variations, none of them had that finale. (Reading the above, I get the impression it was Aldo Colombini who added that.) In Wait Until Dark, John Bannon argues that having a series of perfect predictions is "too perfect". I.e. it suggests that the whole "random" mixing process was actually not random at all. His presentation is that he "senses" the cards - face down; red; clubs. Only the kicker finale is a written prediction. I see that Lennart Green also has a similar presentation. He makes his estimates after all the shuffling; they are not pre-written. However both of these are pretences - in reality they control the outcome; which requires them to make the first cut. Interestingly, Aronson's first variation of S-B involves the performer secretly detecting the number of cards face-down, red etc. NOT controlling the outcome - which is an idea he addresses subsequently. So if you want a presentation wherein the performer "senses' the outcomes rather than predicts them, it seems to me you might as well use a method that allows the very first cut - so the performer can be completely hands-off. This is certainly something I plan to explore. |
