Full FAQ
Can they really pick any card?
They have a free choice of a bank of 12 cards, the first 12 of the Mnemonica stack.

No, the book does most of the work. This is an easy trick, and we provide a few completely sleight free variations. Just need to be able to turn pages in a book.
Can I use this on stage?
Probably, but it's built for casual use and not designed for stage. Tables, bars, living rooms.
Does it repeat in the same room?
That’s the point. It gets stronger on repeat, probably peaks at around the 3rd time.

Secret Wisdom of Magicians
It took me years to realize that everything I learned from magic (how to read what’s really happening, how to practice until it’s natural and how to stay in control when things go sideways) was exactly what made me succeed in real life. In Secret Wisdom of Magicians, I share the inner game of magic, from “Reading the Code” to “Punk Magic Ideas,” so you can stop overthinking, start doing, and make your life more creative and joyful.
