Magic Video - Brainwave Redux by cntrl_shft (Digital Download)

Experience Pure Mentalism

Prepare to redefine what's possible with 'Magic Video - Brainwave Redux' by cntrl_shft, a revolutionary take on one of card magic's most iconic effects. This digital download empowers you to perform a miracle where your spectator's unspoken thoughts manifest into an undeniable reality. Imagine this: you invite someone to simply *think* of a playing card. No words are spoken, no cards are touched, yet their mental selection will be revealed in the most impossible way imaginable. The power lies entirely with their mind, making this an incredibly personal and impactful piece of magic.

A Classic Reimagined

While the classic Brainwave effect has stood the test of time, Allen Garcia, known as cntrl_shft, has meticulously engineered a version that addresses common challenges and elevates the mystery to an unprecedented level. Gone are the subtle tells or awkward handling often associated with older methods. With 'Brainwave Redux,' the deck sits innocently on the table from the very beginning, entirely out of the magician's hands. The spectator is then asked to open the deck, spread through it, and locate their *thought-of* card. The moment of revelation is breathtaking: they discover their card is the *only* one with a contrasting back color, while every other card in the deck shares a uniform hue. You never touch their card, nor do you ever know their choice beforehand, making the effect profoundly clean.

Unforgettable Reaction

This isn't just a card trick; it's an experience that blurs the lines between illusion and genuine mind-reading. The astonishment on your spectator's face when they realize their secretly chosen card is the only anomaly in an otherwise uniform deck is priceless. 'Brainwave Redux' offers a powerful, hands-off demonstration of mental influence and intuition that leaves a lasting impression. It's clean, direct, and utterly baffling, suitable for close-up performances or even a more formal setting.

Magic Shop San Diego is beyond excited to release this wonderful version of the classic Brainwave effect!

The Brainwave deck is a classic for a reason, but there are some flaws that are hard to get around. What Allen Garcia, aka cntrl_shft, has put together with this new version of Brainwave is something that I am sure you will agree completely revamps and improves this classic effect to a whole new level.

Here is what happens:

You begin by asking your spectator to IMAGINE a deck of playing cards. After shuffling the imaginary deck in their mind, you ask the spectator to think of a card. Once the spectator locks a card in mind you then point out a deck that has been sitting on the table the entire time and never touched by the magician. You ask the spectator to open up the deck, the magician still has no knowledge of what the card is, and asking the spectator to spread through the deck and find their thought of card. The card is removed from the deck and the deck is then turned over to show clearly that all the cards in the deck are red except for one card. The spectator turns over the card that they merely thought of and it is the only card with a blue back!
