French Federation of Magic special issue

French Federation of Magic special issue

In September/October 2010, the French Federation of Magic did a special issue of their magazine on me (no. 579).

It includes an introduction by Boris Wild, an interview with Nirag, and 3 of my routines.

First, “Out of Sight, Out of Mind 4,” my version of the classic described by Dai Vernon on page 14 of his book More Inner Secrets of Card Magic, published in 1960.
(My effect is also described in my Penguin lecture.)

Second, “The Visitor Revisited,” my version of the classic described by Larry Jennings in Expert Card Mysteries in 1969.

Third, “Par cœur,” an effect based on Juan Tamariz’s Mnemonica stack, allowing you to produce every Heart in the deck, from Ace to King.
This routine was later described under the title “Kingdom Hearts” in my book Amnesia.

I also share a theoretical essay on “why and how” I perform magic.

The magazine ends with this humorous caricature:
