Ok guys, I haven't been on this site as often as I hoped. Pete's STEM System was brilliant. There's techniques that cover hypnotic phenomena, pre show, and bits and pieces of what I called conditioning. It's not just blatant pre show, it's techniques that kinda create a true dual reality. It means the spectator experience an awe moment and your audience experience an epic moment. Both are completely fooled and yet only you, know what has taken place. They all think they experience the same thing.
Pete is great at being bold. He shows us how to do so here. I would have to disagree with Pete on one thing, this is not just for planned video. This is also impromptu work as well. Many times you are filmed by onlookers. When doing the actual preshow, the onlookers will only film when they see something amazing in the works. So it's like it can be done right under their noses without hiding anything. Some of the techniques, Pete shared years ago with me via casual conversation over SKYPE and I continue to use them today. Without going into much detail, Pete teaches what he told me years ago on how to gather and reveal information. It was so valuable to me that I always seem to credit Pete with showing me how to do it and use it. I think what you are going to get from this work is: 1. Peter is brilliant. 2. I'm an idiot for not using this sooner. 3. Peter is psychic, no way he should know some of his hits. 4. I might need to rethink my approach to mentalism. In those particular order. Well maybe not in that particular order, but I'm the mentalist. My prediction. My rules. Haha.

I was absolutely not disappointed in this.. I recently was performing in a casual performance at work. I had a chance to apply some of these techniques before a small group surrounded.
I was performing a drawing duplication for a girl, and one of my more skeptic coworkers took my business cards out of my hand. He handed her a post it note and told her to go all the way across the room to draw the image. He expected me to be sweating at this point from nerves, yet I was totally calm because I was a million miles ahead of him. Not only was I able to replicate the image, but I was able to divine her Star Sign as well. So this can definitely be used for non-filming situations.. Definitely one of the most informative DVDs I've ever seen. -Dustin |

Here's a rather long (23 minutes) video review:
https://www.facebook.com/MagicWorldUK/vi......6410953/ Unfortunately, it seems to be one of those reviews that uses way too many words to convey relatively little information. They're so reluctant to reveal anything, instead repeating broad generalities over and over, that you may not come away with an appreciably better idea of what the DVD set is all about.
Now appearing nightly in my basement.

When I first got these DVDs I have to admit I thought they were a bit Emperor's new clothes. The whole marketing ploy of implying, and even directly saying, that the potential buyer would only be able to get something from this if they were pros or experienced performers. This had the feel of psychic healers telling someone if the cure didn't work it was because they weren't believing enough; that if you didn't like it, it was because you simply weren't an experienced or good enough performer. Who's going to put their hand up and say I wasn't good enough? Well, I didn't rate it at first. I felt there was an awful lot of mates chatting for the price tag and not enough hard core goods on offer. But then I came back to it a couple of weeks later and watched again. I've since watched it a third time and have to largely revise my initial harshly negative opinion. There is a fair bit of useful stuff in here and one or two clever ideas that I my well employ, but nothing that really blew me away with its startling revelations. Yes, I ultimately enjoyed it and have found some rather useful techniques, but is it worth the price tag? I'm not sure. When you consider the price of some of the Penguin Live lectures and the great value they represent, this feels at times a little cheeky to be asking this price tag. And unfortunately that's where any review of a product like this falls down; if this is, as they say in their marketing, aimed at workers, then it has to become about value for money.

I was into his stuff when I got into magic about a year ago but have moved on since then and I reckon a lot of other people have done too

I've been into magic since 1967 and 90% of my close up set is material from Pete
Your intuition simply overlooked Bold Pin unlock Star sign PA Isobella's star Getting to know you (or my own adaptations of it) Wish you were here. I also use his PK touches on occasion. When you have a lot of experience you don't simply move on to whatever is new, if something is workable and practical you use it. All but getting to know you can be performed completely impromptu and I have my own propless version of that which is impromtu. Mark |

Not at all, Pete's style and my style are very very different, but the material is very solid and for the purposes, completely impromtu I have yet to find stronger material. I use several of my own effects in my close up set too but those are not impromtu namely
Melt Push First date Second date Getting to know you from memory Pictures Free lunch 3 course lunch 3 phase RPS However if I am in a pub etc and not expecting to perform so not set up for any of my own stuff I am likely to start with your intuition, then perform iunlockyourmind along with one of the two phone unlocks the star sign PA and isobella's star. Whilst using a lot of Pete's stuff in there it is a million miles away from the way Pete uses his stuff. Although having seen Pete do that stuff for laymen many times rather than magicians I wish I could deliver it the way Pete does with all of his extra little touches. Mark |

But nonetheless this release seems to have lost its steam for whatever the cause.

This has a somewhat limited market by the nature of its content. I don't have this because I don't make videos and the price is too high to get it just for a look. Mind you, this was released almost a year ago and most things released around that time have gone off the boil forum wise.

I love everything from Peter but this project. Then again, just not for me and where I work my gigs.

Bumping an old thread...
I've wanted to pick this up since its initial release but was hesitant because the principle technique discussed isn't something I make a habit of using. Vanishing Inc. has a flash sale going on and this is included - sale price $64.40 https://www.vanishingincmagic.com/magic/......edition/ I placed my order and look forward to finally seeing Peter's (extended) thoughts on the topic. Best, Drew

As you know way less than 700 ppl have it, and many of them [as with all items] won't be using it. |

I just bagged it for 25% of the original price! I'd be sore if I'd paid full price only to see it sold for this much now.

But do buy it soon, as it’s Limited to a total of 700 copies… I’ll wait until 2023 when they will be selling the last three or four hundred copies at $5 each |
