Has anyone heard of this effect by Gary Sumner?(I think) The review is below: I wonder if it uses IT??
Susceptible - The spectators eyes are covered with your fingertips. Despite them being able to feel your fingers, they feel touches on the back of their neck and head. Relax - A spectator sits down and closes their eyes, you are watched by a group of other spectators. You stand well away from the spectator on the chair and you ask the spectator to remain quiet and in a moment you will ask them a very important question. You silently stroke your shoulder a few times. You then ask the spectator if they felt anything, the comments that they felt you stroke their shoulder, despite you being nowhere near them. Distant Touch - Standing well away from the spectator, you gesture towards them and they feel you touch them. Focus - One on One, the spectator feels something pushing them from behind, despite your hands being in full view. Routines: Connected - An ‘experiment' in paranormal communication that takes an unplanned turn. A lighthearted attempt at making contact with the spirit goes off on a diagonal as things leave the performers control. The Crying Child - A disturbing performance, centered around the spirit of a young girl. Visual occurrences - not effects on their own, but ideas to weave into existing routines. Burn on - A dead match lights just by willing it to. Ghost Glass - A borrowed finger ring is placed inside a small glass as an impromptu spirit bell. At any time the ring is seen to move and shake inside. Unaware - Events occurring that you are not aware of. The power of ignorance. If you like this kind of magic, you WILL like Shivers!

Almost every effect uses IT. So just buy it if you have no problem with using IT.

Thanks for the link Neil:-)
PS: Any new ideas that we can expect from you in the near future? I know you were talking about releasing an Xpert DVD??

This has very clever thinking and application of ideas to spirit theater and seances for smaller crowds. The reviews on this were from the perspective of performing it for larger crowds and stage work. It can be adapted to those formats. Those experienced in spirit theater from the stage will have no trouble improvising with these fertile concepts. A lot of fun to read and to think about. If you like seances, you will like this book.
