Magic Video - Timecard by Gordon Bean
Description & Effect
Step into the extraordinary world of mental magic with Gordon Bean's 'Timecard', a masterclass in direct, inexplicable card and time revelation. Imagine this: a spectator freely selects a playing card from a deck, handling it themselves and changing their mind as often as they wish. Then, they simply name any time of day, perhaps '3:47 PM' or '7:15 AM'. With no overt moves or suspicious fumbling, you turn over their chosen card to reveal, emblazoned boldly on its back, the *exact time* they just named. This isn't just a trick; it's a moment of pure, unadulterated astonishment.
A Method of Unassailable Fairness
What sets 'Timecard' apart is its truly bulletproof method, ensuring every selection feels genuinely free. There are no forces involved for either the card or the time – both are spectator's choices, making the magic profoundly impactful. The routine is incredibly flexible: you can have the time named before the card is selected, or the card before the time, adapting seamlessly to your performance style. The writing on the card's back appears large, clear, and seemingly without explanation, leaving audiences utterly baffled as to its origin. Gordon Bean has meticulously crafted a system that eliminates suspicion and maximizes wonder.
Versatility for Every Performer
'Timecard' is designed with the working magician in mind. It boasts an automatic reset, allowing for immediate repetition, making it perfect for busy walk-around gigs or repeated performances on stage. No table is needed, making it an ideal choice for impromptu close-up settings where space is limited, yet its visual impact scales beautifully for larger audiences. Constructed from standard Bicycle brand playing cards, the effect is durable and does not rely on traditional 'rough and smooth' techniques, guaranteeing longevity and reliability. Respected magicians like David Regal and Tom Ogden rave about its ability to generate 'NO WAY' moments and audible gasps, proving its power to captivate.
