The Science of Surprise Unveiled

Liam Levanon masterfully transforms the familiar Ishihara color blindness test into a dazzling display of visual deception. You introduce a small packet of seemingly ordinary grey-backed cards, each adorned with a pattern of green and red dots forming distinct numbers. Explaining the premise of the color blind test – that seeing the numbers confirms normal vision – you establish an immediate connection with your audience. Everyone confirms they can see the numbers, perfectly setting the stage for the impossible. With a simple, magical gesture, you promise to alter their perception of color. Initially, nothing seems to change, leading to a moment of delightful confusion.

Witness the Chromatic Transformation

This is where the magic truly explodes! You slowly turn the cards over, and before their very eyes, the drab grey backs have miraculously transformed into a vibrant, full-spectrum rainbow of colors. The contrast is astonishing, and the visual impact is immediate and profound. Best of all, these stunning, multi-colored cards can then be immediately handed out for complete examination, leaving no doubt that a true miracle has just occurred.

Effortless Execution, Unforgettable Reactions

The 'Ishihara Test' is a testament to ingenious design, ensuring maximum impact with minimal effort. Liam Levanon guides you through incredibly simple sleight of hand that makes this effect convincing and utterly surprising. The secret lies predominantly in the custom-printed, high-quality cards themselves – there are no cumbersome flaps, no awkward sliding panels, just vivid colors that seem to pop right off the surface. Designed for the modern magician, this wallet-sized wonder is perfect for impromptu performances, making you ready to deliver a spur-of-the-moment miracle anytime, anywhere. Get ready to test their vision, challenge their reality, and secure an unforgettable reaction with Liam Levanon’s Ishihara Test.

Clever quick trick to carry in your wallet. It has a unique and well motivated plot that's guaranteed to get a scream!" - Oz Pearlman

"Liam showed me that trick the first time we met at the Ruskin in Blackpool in 2022. I LOVED IT and urged him to release it! Unlike most color changing card effects, It has an emotional hook and is so logical. I will be carrying this one in my pockets right now and will probably use it right after Color Monte (yup, it's that good!)" - Michel Huot

"This is more than an effect - it's a conversation piece with a great hook. The punch is so strong because they never see it coming..." - Lior Manor

The standard color blind test becomes a surprisingly colorful effect. Liam Levanon has taken a piece of science and used it as an engaging presentation for a color change effect that catches every audience by surprise. See the world in a new color when you perform Ishihara Test.

Here’s what happens:

You introduce a small packet of grey-backed cards with odd green and red dots in patterns that form numbers. You explain that this is the standard test to check people for red/green color blindness. If they can see the numbers in the patterns made up of the dots, then they are not color blind. On the other hand, if they can’t see the numbers, they should have their eyes checked. Upon confirming that everyone sees the numbers, you make a magical gesture and change the way your audience perceives colors. When you display the cards again, the audience is momentarily confused because everything looks the same. That’s when you turn the cards over, and the grey backs have transformed into a rainbow of colors. The cards can then be handed out for immediate examination.

Ishihara Test is instantly engaging to any audience because it’s based on the actual color blindness test. Liam Levanon shares with you extremely simple sleight of hand that makes this effect convincing and surprising. The custom-printed cards do almost all of the work for you. There are no flaps or sliding panels, and the vivid colors almost pop off the cards themselves. This one is perfect to carry in your wallet for when you need a spur-of-the-moment miracle. Get ready to test their vision, and their reality, when you perform Liam Levanon’s Ishihara Test.
