"Again Alex proves how to construct and present contemporary mentalism." – Marc Spelmann
"Alex's Head Wired manages that rare feat: material that's both very creative and very practical.” - Oliver Meech
What will he teach?
In this Penguin Virtual Lecture, Alexander Marsh teaches you some of the close-up and strolling mentalism that he has been using and developing for the past 10 years.
ESP Match & Tarot- First he'll teach his simple and elegant solution to the five-for-five ESP match effect. You put down your card before the spectator every single time, and at the end you have a perfectly matching row of symbols.
Plus he'll share a strolling variation that doesn't require a table, and how this simple technique can take on a new meaning when applied to Tarot cards.
Business Card Peeks- Alexander is known for his billet work and has developed multiple ways to gain information over the years, here he teaches you multiple ways to use nothing more than a stack of business cards and a pen to reveal almost anything.
Drawing Duplication- Plus he reveals his preferred way to perform the classic of Mentalism that is the drawing duplication. This is ideal for casual settings as it perfectly motivates the drawing and allows the performer to start revealing the image before it's even drawn by the spectator.
Automatic Drawing- Sticking with the theme of drawings, Alex reveals a simple and practical way to have a spectator draw an unknown image, without them ever knowing how they did it. No stooging or pre-show required, and can be used for stage or close-up.
The Mentalist At The Card Table- This is Alex's close-up version of his stage routine 'Never Play Cards with a Mentalist' as featured in his previous Penguin Live Act. Alex combines easy to master techniques and just a pack of cards, Alex proves his ability to predict and influence a spectator's thought, read their mind of a single card, and demonstrates his super power memory. He ends by showing the spectators latent super power memory skills too.
Blind Reading- Finally, because he couldn't resist sharing a stage routine, Alex shares an impressive mind reading routine that involves ten or more members of the audience, each having their mind read in a direct manner, while the Mentalist is blindfolded on stage. This routine uses nothing more than your own mind and a common mentalism item - Alex even shows you how to make it in next to no time.
