Thought Space

My 158-page book contains the following:

**WHAT IS THOUGHT SPACE?:**My introduction explaining the title and purpose of the book.

**KILL BILL:**In which a word written on a randomly selected piece of bill perfectly matches a prediction written by the magician.

**CHARMING REDUX:**My handling of Troy Hooser's "Charming Chinese Challenge" using just one coin instead of three.

**SALT, STRAW, SPECTACULAR:**A borrowed drinking straw penetrates through an ungimmicked salt shaker.

**A GRAIN OF SALT:**A shaker vanishes from between a participant's hands and reappears back in the condiment holder.

**SHAKER-THRU-WINDOW:**A salt shaker is magically pushed through a restaurant window, to be found on the ground outside directly beneath it. Unsigned, initialed and signed variations included!

PIGMENT STACK: A special stack that allows you to do some killer effects!

**THE COLOR OF MEMORY:**This one hits laypeople AND magicians hard. The performer uses his intuition and memory to not only correctly divine the colors of freely cut-to cards, but also manages to separate the deck into red and black cards without looking. No markings of any kind.

**THE PADDLE MOVE - A BRIEF DISSERTATION:**I walk you through how I believe the paddle move should be accomplished in order to make it as deceptive as possible.

**POLYCHROMATIC CONNECTION:**My full Hot Rod routine that elevates this classic prop from a toy to a tool of mental destruction.

**OCULAR FORCE:**A highly deceptive optical illusion-based sleight that allows you to cleanly force one or more cards.

**OCULAR ACES:**Four participants choose "lucky" cards from a shuffled deck. The magician deals down cards in the deck according to the values of the selections, locating the four Aces!

**SO IT GOES: AN ESSAY:**A short essay on how Kurt Vonnegut influenced my magic and why you should let him influence yours.
