Book excerpt: In Mentalissimo, John brings his talents to bear on mentalism and mental magic with playing cards. "I do card tricks, have a keen interest in mentalism and am a fanatic about the construction of magic tricks. For me, a book like this is just what I look for. All of the above; in one place."You can expect: Squeaky-clean revelations of truly thought-of cards. Demonstrations of psychic ability that can't be explained simply as coincidence. Clear, commercial prediction systems. Offbeat treatments of classic mental effects from "Add-a-Number" to "Out of This World."Thirty items are described and explained in twenty-one chapters. Almost all use regular unprepared cards. Two require a common gaffed card. Most are impromptu. A couple require a more-than-minimal stack. A few rely on easily-made external props. One employs a pack of ESP symbol cards. All are intelligently explained and laced with commentary and discussion. Come for the thought-provoking card effects; stay for the conversation.

Download or read book Mentalism from A to Z written by Giochidimagia and published by Giochidimagia Editore. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thank you and congratulations for buying the eBook “Mentalism from A to Z”. The title sums up the spirit of the guide, in fact with this eBook the purpose was precisely to give an overview of the art of Mentalism, talking about the techniques used, psychology, Cold Reading and much more, not getting lost in descriptions of details that only the individual performer can and must necessarily learn and refine by trying and trying again. For this reason, no room has been given to the presentations. It seems a paradox not to mention the presence of an illusionistic effect when this is probably more than 90 percent of the effect itself, but, as said little, the presentation is something so subjective and that must be created according to the character of the performer, the context, and many other factors. In this case, it was not considered to have to report presentations, leaving the reader free to create and build those more suitable for himself and the show he wants to propose. The manual also wants to clarify many controversial aspects of Mentalism. The reason is simple: to give the illusion that the effects of Mentalism are made with NDP, non-verbal communication techniques, reading of micro-facial expressions, and those who have more. The biggest mental effect of the performers in recent years, for example, Derren Brown, whose style was then taken and brought back to the individual countries by local artists, is just this. I have received hundreds of calls and emails from people who have become passionate, in recent years to Mentalism, seeing live shows, and on TV or performances on YouTube. By talking to these people, I realized the confusion that had arisen, or rather, the illusion worked and people believed it. Of course, psychology has to do with mentalism, but how will you understand it by reading the manual. With this guide, you will clarify your ideas on the "Mentalism" issue and you will have the tools to be able to create YOUR MENTAL EFFECTS! In this ebook you can find: INTRODUCTION.. 7 CHAPTER 1. 9 THOUSAND EXCUSES AND PRETEXTS, JUST ONE MENTALISM! 9 The Classic Mentalist 10 “Mental Magic” Mentalist 10 The Mentalist who proposes Real Mentalism.. 10 Mental Bending Mentalist 10 He can perform anywhere, charism is everything. 11 Magician Mentalist 11 Mentalism in Pair 11 Scientific Mentalism.. 11 The “Reader” Mentalism.. 12 The “Bizarre Magic” Mentalism.. 12 The Channeler Mentalism.. 12 CHAPTER 2. 13 TECHNIQUES. 13 The misunderstanding. 13 The step forward technique. 16 Dual Reality. 19 Writing nail 20 . 21 Center Tear 21 Accomplices. 36 CHAPTER 3. 37 MAGIC TRICKS. 37 A DANGEROUS CHOICE (Technique: magic choice) 37 I CAN READ IT IN YOUR MIND.. 43 THE IMPOSSIBLE CHOICE (Technique: magic choice) 45 TRIPLE PREDICTION (Technique “the step forward”) 56 DO YOU THINK YOU CAN CHOOSE FREELY?. 63 WHERE’S THE MONEY?. 75 THINK OF THE NAME OF SOMEONE YOU LOVED! 79 THE POWER OF NOSTRADAMUS (verbal code technique) 85 TELEPATHIC COINS (Verbal Code Technique) 86 TELL ME THE CARD (Card Forcing Technique) 87 THE PSYCHIC FORCE.. 92 INDICATE AN OBJECT. 95 CHOOSE A NUMBER (Multiple Solutions Technique) 101 BOOK TEST “MATHEMAGIC”. 103 INCREDIBLE PREDITION WITH A NOTEBOOK.. 106 HOW I INFLUENCE YOUR CHOICE!

Download or read book 31 Days to Mentalism written by Giochidimagia and published by Giochidimagia Editore. This book was released on 2020-03-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been a few years since the publication of Modern Mentalism with its 3 Volumes and little time since the publication of Mentalism from A to Z. In these volumes, techniques, psychology, tricks, ethics and much more have been explained about the world of mentalism. This world is always immense as a heritage of creativity for which I wanted to publish this new guide with a different approach: not to mention particular techniques but making available to the reader only tricks of mentalism to be carried out immediately. The aim is to create a real practical repertoire, to be performed immediately! The proposed effects are simple, effective and easy to learn and execute. This manual does not talk about psychological mentalism, or scientific, PNL, hypnosis, etc. but you will find methods that you will learn by performing the magic effects and some of which are quite unusual and therefore deserve to be known along with the more classic principles of the Mentalism. The presentations are not specifically addressed, as their importance is vital for the tricks but, in my opinion, it is too personal to be "taught" so a few indications were provided only on how to present each effect, for example on the specific topic, (mind-reading, reading non-verbal language, etc.); leaving the interpreter free to adapt or create his own presentation based on his individual uniqueness as an artist and person. The time has come to end the interminable rhetoric and to take action, or rather to tricks! In this ebook you find: Introduction Day 1: Guess what time is it! Day 2: Do you mind reading o do you magic tricks? Day 3: Subliminal response Day 4: Random words Day 5: We bet that I guess your card! Day 6: I know which color you're going to choose Day 7: I know which color sequence you will choose Day 8: I can read your mind Day 9: I know what Grandma's name is it Day 10: Bet with the spectators!

Day 14: I know which postcard you will choose! Day 15: An impossible mind-reading! Day 16: Your 10 € have this serial number Day 17: Now stop joking! Day 18: See with the mind Day 19: No, that’s not just possible! Day 20: What drink do you want? Day 21: The Book of Secrets Day 22: Burned thoughts Day 23: Non-verbal language Day 24: Capture emotions Giorno 25: Smell like victory Day 26: The mystery of the banknotes Day 27: Mental emotions Day 28: Guards and thieves Day 29: Telepathy with names Day 30: Predicting a thought card Day 31: Impossible numerical prevision!
