Do you do a patter for the card warp, or do you just go through the motions? Eugene Burger has a great patter but if you want to do it short(er) and sweet, what is your favorite patter. I don't do this trick very often and haven't developed a good routine for it yet.

For the non-Brits here, the clocks changed last weekend from GMT to BST.
I know that it's six months until you can next use this patter for Card Warp, but here it is anyway. I usually waffle on about a warp in the space-time continuum. If it's somebody's birthday, or whatever, I say that that causes the WITSTC. On Saturday, I was performing (including Card Warping) to quite a few friends, and I said that the change to BST meant that at 02:00 there'd be a warp in the time continuum. But that'd cause a warp in the space continuum too. And through that warp..... I then showed them the BST card, warped it back to the GMT card, warped it to the BST card again, and finished as normal. The next day, whenever anybody else mentioned that effect, I told them that they should have got up at 2 o'clock to try it. It went down quite well. Dave

I patter about the Twilight Zone..."which allows us to go back to the beginning of all this, back when this face-out card was...face-in."
At the very end of the routine, just as the two spectator helpers are touching the pieces together (one spectator has the face-in half, the other has the face-out half), I silently produce a small portable tape deck that has an abbreviated version of the "Twilight Zone" TV show theme song looped on it. The sudden playing of the instantly-recognizable theme song surprises everyone and gets a great reaction.

I like the short and sweet presentation like the one on Mike Ammar's Card Miracles Vol. 2. It's about the different ways to fold a card.

Anything about time, turning cards over, etc. You can also do Twisting the Aces before card warp for an added bonus.

Check out Jeff Pierce's "The Cardwarp Tour." There are several scripts from real workers as well as tons of very cool variations on the Cardwarp concept.

If you can find it, there was a great presentation in Tannens Magic Manuscript, which also used the Twilight Zone theme. I believe the year was 1983.

I talk about duality - how we tend to want things to be one way, but that life provides moments when the "just one way" theory doesn't hold up and we are forced to recognize that inside and outside are sperated by thin lines of distinction..etc..
