jamesbond Loyal user 249 Posts	Posted: May 23, 2015 10:16 pm 0 Hi guys, I am looking for any ideas that have to do with the theme of time travel. (going back in time, slowing down time, stopping time, synchronicity,etc.) Any ideas greatly appreciated. thanks! Bond Vancouver Magician Vancouver Magicians Magicians in Vancouver
ddyment Inner circle Gibsons, BC, Canada 2501 Posts	Posted: May 23, 2015 10:59 pm 0 Tom Jorgenson contributed an excellent plot idea to my R2-D2 book that has subsequently become one of my "go to" impromptu effects; I generally do it close-up, but it could be a platform routine if you substitute an index card (which is the way Tom normally does it). It involves having the participant travel back in time to reconstruct the destruction of a message written on a business/index card, and includes some great imagery (and a credible plot).

It was published in his "Experimente in dem Uberraum." (Loosely translated as "Experiments in the Fourth Dimension.") The booklet was translated into English by Bill Palmer and is well worth finding. It was first released in German in the late 1970's. Bob Cassidy Professional Consulting Sessions for Mentalists The Workshop

CThomas Loyal user 272 Posts	Posted: May 27, 2015 12:56 am 0 Since Alain Nu is on my mind from the other day, he has an ambitious time-travel-themed effect called "Psycho-Chronetic."
DT3 Inner circle Hill Valley 1920 Posts	Posted: May 27, 2015 07:18 am 0 You might do well to take a dive down the rabbit hole that is Bruce Bernstein's effect "A Matter of Time." It's in his book Unreal, and within the book are 13 variations. Good stuff. -Don Theo Mind Blasters USA
Mysteryos New user 28 Posts	Posted: May 27, 2015 04:40 pm 0 Hmm, How about the effect Timekeeper by Matt Mellow, you could adapt the storyline and/or let the watch go backwards...?
