Experience Unrivaled Control with Dani DaOrtiz
Prepare to revolutionize your card magic with 'Symbiosis,' Chapter 3 of Dani DaOrtiz's monumental 'Force Project.' Dani DaOrtiz, a master illusionist renowned for his FISM-winning techniques, returns to share the closely guarded secrets of card forcing. This isn't just about making someone choose a card; it's about creating an illusion of complete freedom, making every selection feel honest and fair, even when you're in total control. This digital download delivers an immersive lesson designed to transform your approach to card manipulation, offering insights developed over a year-long dedicated study.
The Symbiosis Revelation: An Impossible Feat
Imagine this: a spectator thoroughly shuffles the deck. Another freely takes a packet, thinks of any card within it, and returns the packet to the deck. A third person then deals cards face-up, stopping whenever they wish. The value of that final dealt card dictates how many more cards are dealt. Incredibly, the last card dealt is precisely the one the first spectator was merely thinking of. This is the breathtaking 'Symbiosis' effect. Dani breaks down this miracle, first with a 'bare-bones' explanation so you can grasp the core mechanics, then delving into the nuanced psychology that makes it utterly baffling.
Unveiling Advanced Forcing Psychology
Dani DaOrtiz doesn't just teach tricks; he imparts a profound understanding of magical theory. In this chapter, you'll explore how to harness both your and your audience's muscle memory to execute forces with effortless grace. Discover the Spanish school's closely guarded 'Sequence Forcing,' a brilliant technique allowing you to dictate a spectator's actions without ever touching the deck. Furthermore, Dani introduces his 'Transitional Block' concept, a clever method to make the audience feel like they've handled the entire deck, guiding their actions through subtle scripting and natural transitions. These principles aren't just for 'Symbiosis'; they are foundational elements that will infuse all your card magic with a diabolical, yet fair, appearance.

Original Specs
Dani DaOrtiz is back, and this time, you don’t have a choice because this project is all about card Forces. There’s no one who makes a card selection feel more honest and fair than Dani DaOrtiz. In this year-long project Dani will share with you his favorite methods, principles, and techniques to get your audience to take exactly the card you want.
The What
Dani kicks things off by showing you an amazing card location effect called Symbiosis. The deck is handed out to the audience and thoroughly shuffled. One spectator takes a packet of cards from anywhere they want in the deck and thinks of any card in the packet. The packet is mixed back into the deck. Another spectator takes the deck, deals the cards face up onto the table, and stops dealing whenever they want. The value of the card they stopped at is noted, and that number of cards is dealt onto the table. The final card dealt, incredibly, is the exact card the first spectator was merely thinking of.
The How
As soon as you have seen the effect Dani teaches you the bare-bones explanation of what’s going on so you can start practicing immediately. This force flies under the radar using a clever sequence that hides in plain sight.
The Why
Here is where the incredible techniques of Dani DaOrtiz get married to his FISM-winning philosophy. This section is a detailed breakdown of concepts that will take your magic to the next level. In this chapter Dani explores exploiting your and your audience member’s muscle memory to make your force look effortless. Sequence forcing has been a closely guarded secret in the Spanish school of magic for years, and now Dani is sharing how he uses it to gain control of a spectator’s actions while never touching the deck. These concepts are combined with Dani’s Transitional Block. This is a clever way to make the audience feel like they have handled the entire deck, using transitional actions and scripting to guide their actions. It’s a brilliant concept that you can apply to the rest of your card magic, making it more diabolical than ever.
