Hello everyone!
I have been invited to do a 30 Minute show in a year 9 Social Studies class in about 2 weeks time, normally in my 30 minute routine I would perform reminiscence however I know that high school students would most likely figure out the d*** r****** (not sure if I should mask simple concepts like d*** r******, let me know if I need to or not) due to the fact that they will talk to the person afterwards to ask them about the trance, I have always been confident in using reminiscence in front of crowds where no one really knows anyone but with everyone in the class knowing everyone, I think the effect might be ruined. I was thinking about leading onto another effect straight after as a way to blur everyone's experience with the reminiscence but reminiscence is probably my strongest effect so I don't really want to upstage it with another effect. Let me know your thoughts on my issue/problem. Cheers, Influencologist |

Hi Influ,
Have a read of the sticky thread at the top of the Penny forum. It will give you the info you need about what's acceptable to post. When you have 50 posts you can access the secret area where these topics may be discussed. PS do you have a first edition of Pure Effect? I've been searching for one for a long time. All the best Sean |

I now wish I didn't skim over the "lift" portion of the book

I like this thread
Collectively, we are making a lot of progress..... Kam
If I speak forth, many a mind will shatter,
And if I write, many a pen will break. .....and when I consider my own self, lo, I find it coarser than clay! |

It is not a bad idea to use as an induction either.
Fism flash and a pen anyone? Also make a hilarious ending to demonstrations... Talk about heavy psychic activity... Getting more and more paranoid as talk continues... Then pull your sunglasses and neurolize them and start talking about an obvious cover up story and laugh it off with the audience... Or... (pulls out sunglasses and flashes homemade neurolizer) (matter of fact) You believe this is a BAD idea. Not only is it ridiculous but no one would get the joke and the idea of "laughing it off WITH the audience will not be an option...

Influ,
I perform primarily for teenagers. I think your concern is valid, not only because of the possible discussion afterward, but they may know enough about the person to know what places they visit and what special memories were actually like for the selected person (they may have even been present for the event you are trying to "read") etc. Imagine someone describing, say, their birthday and someone blurts out, "I was there it wasn't like that!". I also believe effects like this require a certain amount of command over the audience, and that can be very difficult in a school among teens that know each other, you are the outsider, you don't have the same power they collectively have as an audience. So you need to be wise in how you manage your audience and earn their trust. That said, with the right scripting, you can render anything said following DR pretty unreliable. I love performing for teens, it keeps you on your toes. Best to you, Mark |

After ten minutes, I finally figured out what he was hyphenating. *a** t***** has an excellent text on this subject called **e a********n *w***l*, though * ******** *** ** *********** by ********* ************ is better.

I've witnessed a Quite famous mentalist in the netherlands talking himself out of someone figuring out an Dual Reality effect perfectly.
he did a Sender/Receiver type effect, and when the spectators(who aperently spoke with eachother) met him after they confronted him about it, he told them calmly and cofidently, it was becouse of hypnotic ifluence, how diffrent people experience the sending and receiving in diffrent ways, and how memories could be warped while on stage. pulled it off beautifully |

I have a natural talent for that, even so that when I say something to my kids growing up they would turn to my wife and say " is that true?" most of the time she didn't even know. |
