Hi to you all,
just one simple question.
is there a plan available for this illusion to build it on my own?

No

You will have to contact Bill or Willy.

Michael

Just for clarification, that is Bill Smith In Las Vegasor Willy Kennedy In California. Bill Smith's website is : http://magicventures.com/ and Willy Kennedy's is: http://www.wkmagic.com/ .

Nick Fox

I was understanding that only bill build(s) Osmosis...

On Willy's site he has this picture: http://www.wkmagic.com/gallery/set05/osmosis.html . So at the very least he has been involved with Osmosis on some level. I don't know whether or not he is involved with it currently. The Osmosis pictured looks to be of the first generation, so it is possible that he no longer builds it. Anyone know the facts for sure?

Nick Fox

Ah I was thinking of the other thing that goes along with osmosis whats that called? where the lady comes out of his head?

That illusion is called Incubus.

Kevin

P.S. Ryan how ya been?

Incubus is performed only by Rick Thomas Right??

Michael

Willie does build Steinmeyer's Osmosis. Your probably looking around 9-10,000 for the piece complete with rights paid. It's a VERY large, bulky prop.

I know of at least one other person performing Incubus.

Hans Klok from the Netherlands and Jan Rouven from Germany perform also the illusion Incubus.


You can find some information of development the Osmosis in Genii - volume 66 - Number 11 - November 2003 - page 50.

Check out the book, "The Seven Basic Secrets of Illusion Design" by Eric Van Duzer here-

http://hamiltonholtinc.site.yahoo.net/sevbassecofi.html

It's a great book and the method used in Osmosis is covered in here, but used in a different illusion. I can't say enough about this book. Great for the begining illusionist.

Take care, Bry

This is a huge prop .. not really made for trouping .. unless of course, you're David Copperfield. This one is only built by William Kennedy or Bill Smith .. both excellent builders. It's mostly made of metal .. lot's of it .. so it's got some weight going on too. The size is all part of the illusion .. but as I remember, it was over twelve feet tall .. and the base is even longer than that. This one won't fit in the back of Dad's Country Squire station wagon .. with the wood grain side panels ..

Thanks for the answers
