"Blomberg Laboratories is not as good as I had hoped it would be ... it's even better."
- Michael Weber
Meet Sweden’s Tomas Blomberg—he’s not your average magician. With a background in mathematics, physics, and a penchant for puzzles, he crafts magic that’s as clever as it is captivating. Esteemed magicians have dubbed him a reclusive genius, and now, for the first time, he’s letting us peek behind the curtain with this stunning oversized hardback book.
In Blomberg's universe, the method is just as intriguing as the outcome. You’ll discover an entirely new spin on the Card at Any Number routine, where the deck mysteriously—and automatically—cuts itself at the chosen number. In "Hold Your Gilbreath," you’ll use maths to figure out if there’s a sneaky sharp pin lurking under a line of cups. And in "Time After Time," spectators somehow manage to find their own selections, even after they’ve shuffled the cards like a bunch of amateurs. Tempted? You should be! The methods are refreshingly original, and trust me, they’ll have your audiences scratching their heads in delight.
Sleight of hand enthusiasts, rejoice! This book is brimming with new effects and techniques. Pay special attention to Tomas’ refined spread double lift—this gem has been a secret weapon among card magic's elite for yonks, and it’s finally making its debut here, complete with five effects that utilise it.
In total, Andi Gladwin guides you through 65 of Tomas’ most fascinating creations. In a world where quality magic books are as rare as a polite heckler, Blomberg Laboratories is a refreshing breath of fresh air. This book took three years to bring to life, and the material? Well, it’s taken a lifetime to perfect.
