The Gadget Manuscript

    This manuscript is all about performing magic over the internet. It contains 6 mentalism effects that are to be performed in chatrooms and over webcam. These effects are EXTREMELY STRONG. Here they are:

Pre-Mail - A game of intuition is played with your spectator and they end up correctly guessing what image you had saved in your photobucket account!

Aneurysm - You hold a balled up piece of paper in your hand on webcam and ask your spectator to name someone special to them. You unfold the paper ball and the same name is written on the paper!

The B.N. Book Test - A long distance book test (This is the only effect in this document that will not always work. In fact, the chances of it working are pretty slim. However, it does work from time to time, it's an interesting concept and when it doesn't work it doesn't really matter because you built it up to be something that might not work. It is REALLY STRONG when it hits.)

Target Practice - You hold a playing card back toward the webcam in full view and ask the spectator to try and remote view the card. They will be surprised when you show them that they are correct!

The Audio Swindle - You have a video you want to show someone over a chatroom? Send them the link but before they watch it ask them what their favourite genre of music is. When they watch the video, it has that genre of music playing!

Notepad and Dreamer. - You send someone an audio file on msn but ask them not to accept it just yet. Ask them what they would name if you asked them to name absolutely anything. They answer, accept the file, listen to it and it's a recording of you predicting what they would name! Don't have a microphone? Don't worry! Use Window's Notepad to send them a written prediction. Dreamer (the audio prediction) is simply a variation/improvement on Notepad.

Note: Alan Rorrison has come up with the same effect and method as Dreamer. We both created the effect independantly and we are in harmony with the situation. He calls it Digital Divination.
