The Journal of Psience by Michael Weber (Vol 1 – Issue 4 )

Issue Four of the Journal takes a second look at Color Match which has become one of the most favored effects in magic and mentalism. Tony Anverdi started it all back in the early 1980’s and 30 years later, Craig Filicetti revived the method and effect with a vengeance. Few effects offer the same degree of spectator freedom and participation. Even fewer routines provide the guaranteed punch of the color-based drawing duplication. This month’s bonus material moves outside the lines and reexamines the Color Match effect and procedure in an informal context. Many restaurants offer a small box of crayons to amuse their youngest guests, a practice of which the clever per-former can take advantage. Finally, be on the look out for a few select offers of items which have only been available at recent conferences like The Genii Convention in Orlando and the Las Vegas based Mindvention (where a stage performance of the Day for Any Date from Issue One generated solid applause, much positive commentary, dozens of inquisi-tive mentalists and a healthy increase in the number of Psience members.) Please remember that this material is being shared so you can perform it (as long as you do not perform it on television, cable, YouTube or any other broadcast, live streamed or recorded format. Let’s keep live experiences alive.)
