Matthew Wright's clever and entertaining coin effect is a storyteller magician's dream!
The Artefact is more than just a magic trick. It is that rare and wonderful piece of magic that allows you to not only amaze and entertain but to also open your audiences eyes to a whole new way of thinking.
It is incredibly easy to do, requires no sleight of hand and (excluding one simple "move") is completely self working. The props have been designed to do all the work for you. All of the secrets of the routine are contained within the expertly crafted props.
THE ROUTINE: A deck of 25 "symbol" cards are completely and freely mixed by the spectator false shuffles, no controls of any kind. Five cards are chosen from the deck by the spectator. It is a completely free choice- no forces and they can even change their mind. The spectator guards the deck. The magician at no point in the entire routine ever touches the deck! The cards are dealt face down into a circle by the spectator. Again, the magician doesn't touch them. The spectator secretly looks at one of symbols on ANY one of the cards- no force. The magician "reads their mind"! To prove it, a blister of the chosen symbol appears on the magician's finger! Then, the five selected cards are turned over to reveal five symbols. The Artefact coin (which has been on full display throughout) is turned to show it has the EXACT matching five symbols in EXACTLY the same order as dealt by the spectator. AND THEN- the remainder of the deck (which the spectator has been guarding/holding/in their pocket) the entire time is shown to be completely BLANK. There are no symbols on any of the cards. To repeat- the magician has never touched the deck. Everything can be examined and you end completely clean.
The Artefact truly is a wonderful trick. Not only is it easy to master and very clever, but it gives you the opportunity to add an incredible story presentation to it. Ancient lost civilizations, cataclysmic floods, alien technology... Whatever tale you want to tell, the Artefact gives you the opportunity to weave your story into this compelling presentation. Creator of The Artefact, Matthew Wright, goes into great detail on the included download about how to create your story and why The Artefact could be the most entertaining magic trick you ever perform.
