Welcome to the wonderfully chaotic world of Sean McCarthy’s debut offering to the magic and mentalism scene! Divine Chaos is packed with a treasure trove of contemporary magic and mentalism that’ll have you pulling rabbits out of hats (or perhaps bending spoons) in no time. Sean’s got his finger on the pulse of what works for today’s performers, employing clever methods that are as slick as they are effective. From his linguistic wizardry for metal bending to the subtle nuances of each trick, you’ll quickly realise this chap has distilled some brilliant principles, all while adding his own cheeky twist.
Inside, you’ll discover 7 practical, no nonsense effects that are good to go for both close-up and stage performances. These aren’t just plucked from thin air; each effect has been road-tested over two years in the wild (no rabbits were harmed in the making of this book).
Here’s what’s waiting for you:
Trippy - A mind-boggling drawing duplication where the spectator doesn’t even lift a pencil. (How’s that for minimalism?)
ImprompCAAN - An impromptu Card at Any Number effect using a borrowed, shuffled deck. (No need to panic, we’ve all been there.)
Synister - An evolution of Sean’s linguistic metal bending techniques (previously seen in Deep Shadows by Dee Christopher).
The Gift of Giving - A stage effect where the audience gives the spectator a memory to treasure forever. (Ahhh, magic and nostalgia! What a combo.)
Hide From Me - An impromptu which-hand test that’s as simple as it is devilishly clever.
Bottoms Up - Russian Roulette at its finest, presenting a 50/50 gamble between life and, well, not life.
China Bull - A propless system that lets you reveal a spectator’s childhood memories with seemingly effortless flair. (Who needs props when you’ve got charm?)
