I've thought of a method to accomplish this, but it would require performing this effect for the same spectator at a subsequent performance after some time has passed. That's obviouly not very practical. The card signing instructions would need to be very specific for that to even have a chance to work. As commented the spectator reaction in the demo is killer! I don't mind a lot of set up since I'm not a paid professional, and perform for friends and family. Is the effect really practical for the restaurant and hospitality suite worker etc? I was willing to gamble and purchase this "tool", but would love to hear a simple "yes" or "no" from someone who already knows the modus operandi. I think that would be fair, and helpful for those pro workers on a tight buget. Thanks, Allen

Ah I just noticed that Cameron Francis had previously commented that it is practical! That's very cool! Do others agree? Thanks, Allen

Based on the price, I'm guessin it's only possible to do with a signature, drawing, & other stuff with ink....but for those who do have it, is it possible to "copy" entire card designs & make it appear on other cards? (i.e. no duplicate cards whatsoever)
I'm also very interested in how well built it is & how long it would last if it can get worn out over time. ps. I apologize in advance if my Q sounds too much like 'fishing', but it'd just help me decide based on the versatility of the gimmick Regards, -Steve |

There is no gimmick.
While I think this is very workable, keep in mind, I have not performed it myself. But would if I took the time to study it.

I think you already have an inkling of what is going on... so... just get it FAX will teach you the tips and tricks that Loki has honed over years doing this. Anyone wanting to take their ambitious routine to another level entirely will probably love it.

Personally after analysing (Camerons and Saysolds Comments )which I respect I think this is very unlikely to be a big hit . I can tell by all their previous posts on things that they have reservations on this one .The price puts me off as too cheap IMO for a miracle .

Oh I forgot to mention: this method was told to me by ''Berk Eratay'', inventor of biokinesis, who showed me this method at the fism in blackpool.

Are you saying that you take the time and trouble to replace the ‘innards’, as it were, of a Sharpie into another off brand pen and if so... why? There is nothing written in stone that a Sharpie must be used when performing a magic trick that involves something being signed. With that said, save yourself the time and trouble and use whatever pen/marker you wish to use as a spectator could care less.

The DVD comes with no gimmick. It's a well produced DVD. And since other folks have said this -- there is no gimmick involved. It's all method. Would I do this?
No. |

I haven't had this long, but some things I'll add to the mix:
Despite what others have said, to my knowledge, this HAS been put to use in magic before, but it is ingenious nonetheless. Saysold is right - this is ballsy, and it isn't for everyone, but I do think this is practical and workable given some time put into it. I won't be doing this all the time, but I like the idea and I'll be playing around with this for awhile at least. If you like self-working, gimmicked magic - this is not for you. |

He's using a Sherpa pen which is basically a fancy pen shell that you may put a sharpie or other compatible pens in. They are really sharp looking and only take a few seconds to replace the pen when they go dry. |
