Banachek Lecture – South Tyneside International Magic Festival

March 14th, 2009 by Richard Morrell

Banachek started his lecture with a 30 minute show, including an ESP prediction where he influenced the spectator to pick a particular symbol.

He then passed some slips of paper around the audience asking them to write their name and some information like a number or date. Whilst this was being done he performed an Add a Number dream presentation, and then a drawing duplication using one of the slips.

A version of PK touches using a couple was very effective, followed by a spike bend, and finally a very effective divination of the information on the audience marked billets. Banachek then went on to explain this act in detail. Next he demonstrated some easy but effective ideas using business cards, including several ways to peek and reveal written information and M.I.N.D which is a quick demonstration of psychic influence.

A multiple card selection procedure was used to read the minds of several spectators, by finding their thought of cards in the pack. Finally Banachek finished a fantastic lecture with a word predicton using his ring to highlight a word in a book he predicted that word, and went on to show us the simple modus operandi involved.
