00:00:03.180 --> 00:00:08.980
In 2011, I wrote my very 1st
book to share with you, my ideas

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:13.720
about a 100-year-old principle, allowing
you to perform self working miracles with

00:00:13.740 --> 00:00:18.940
cards. I used these effects to fool and
entertain lay people and magician all over

00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:23.920
the world for years. I even performed
these routine when I went to the famous 4F

00:00:23.940 --> 00:00:26.435
convention in the U.S.
for the second time.

00:00:26.455 --> 00:00:28.540
The book is now available in a fully

00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:30.300
revised and augmented version.

00:00:30.780 --> 00:00:35.440
As the title implies, multitude is a book
collecting a multitude of effects. The

00:00:35.460 --> 00:00:40.960
name comes from a principle revealed
by Val Evans in the mid 1930s. He explains a

00:00:40.980 --> 00:00:45.700
devastating concept that then inspired geniuses,
like Juan Tamariz, Michael Weber,

00:00:45.720 --> 00:00:50.860
and Pit Hartling. This idea has so much potential
that it continued to inspire many

00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:56.440
creators for decades, and it allowed me to
imagine more than 15 routine. Impossible

00:00:56.460 --> 00:01:01.780
coincidences,
gambling routine, card to wallet without palming, a version of Out of

00:01:01.800 --> 00:01:06.580
this World where the spectator is the
hero, predictions, sandwiches, divinations,

00:01:06.600 --> 00:01:10.900
and so much more. The majority of these effects
are completely self working, making

00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:15.295
them accessible, even for beginners
of card magic and mentalism.

00:01:15.315 --> 00:01:16.600
In this new revised

00:01:16.620 --> 00:01:21.940
and augmented version, I added a multitude
of details on the script I'm using, tips

00:01:21.960 --> 00:01:27.160
on presentation, psychology, as well
as new techniques and variations. The

00:01:27.180 --> 00:01:30.892
2011 version contained
about 40 illustrations.

00:01:30.912 --> 00:01:32.920
The new augmented version

00:01:32.940 --> 00:01:36.073
contains more than 150 illustrations.

00:01:36.093 --> 00:01:38.800
The 2011 version contained about

00:01:38.820 --> 00:01:41.257
80 pages. That's about 10,000 words.

00:01:41.277 --> 00:01:44.260
The new augmented version
contains more than

00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:47.540
250 pages. That's about 26,000 words.

00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:50.200
The book also gives you access

00:01:50.220 --> 00:01:53.068
to one hour and a half
of videos in English.

00:01:53.088 --> 00:01:55.480
By streaming them online, you can see

00:01:55.500 --> 00:02:00.460
the effects performed in real conditions,
then watch the explanations. If you

00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:04.840
approach this project like a series of miracles
to add to your repertoire, it will

00:02:04.860 --> 00:02:09.580
be a good start. But the true secret is
to understand the basic principles explained

00:02:09.600 --> 00:02:13.427
in the book, then to exploit
them for your own creations.

00:02:13.448 --> 00:02:14.980
Now, it is your turn to

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:19.740
explore the definitive edition of this book
and to imagine a multitude of effects.
