For over a decade, I’ve kept the secrets tucked away in this book (seriously, it’s been a bit of a vault).
This little gem helped me snag the First Prize in Mentalism at the French National Championship back in 2008, got me into the hallowed halls of the legendary F.F.F.F. group in the States, earned me the Award of Merit at the Canadian National Championship in 2012, and has left both magicians and laypeople scratching their heads worldwide.
Within these pages, I dive deep into the Rainman routine, along with three other mind-boggling memory effects involving cards.
The book spans 150 pages of pure brilliance (in English, of course), featuring 45 photos and illustrations to keep you entertained whilst you learn.
Warning:
You’ll need to master a stack for these routines, my friend. The book uses Juan Tamariz's Mnemonica stack for all the examples, but don't fret! It also offers guidance for stacks by Aronson, Osterlind, and Rix. Once you’ve grasped the book’s principles, you can apply them to any non-repetitive stack you fancy. The routine employs special decks, and I’ll walk you through various ways to prepare them yourself, so you can strut your stuff with your preferred stack and back design.
The prep and performance aren’t exactly brain-busters, but I do throw in some original principles that’ll require a bit of mental training and diligent practice (you know, the usual magic stuff).
