The Journal of Psience by Michael Weber ( (Vol 1 – Issue 5)

Performers are on a constant search for value. What is the maximum impact possible for the most reasonable amount of total investment? There are many effects that offer a lifelong return, but the time and money required to achieve them make them cost prohibitive.

The current marketplace is brimming with cheap and easy “quick fix” effects or methods but the performance value is usually insubstantial, fleeting or both. So what’s worth it? What lasts?

One time-tested source of value is the incidental wonder. A demonstration relying on everyday objects, and as few of them as is possible, is a good place to start. This issue’s offerings are a foundational mind reading effect and an optional supplementary add-on which both use the most common of everyday objects: the cash register receipt.

While we have developed material around this object for more than 20 years, we feel that this particular approach offers a new, stronger, underlying structure which allows you to describe the characteristics of a thought-of object, and conclude by correctly naming the actual object.

Happy Shopping.
