Sometimes the method of a tower is as magical and surprising as its effect.
Amaze box is the best example (imagine what you feel with tenyo ... Except that you can use Amaze box in front of hundreds of people).
Simple, elegant: A box that exchanges and strengths without you having to touch it. No electronics. In fact, the method is close to origami.
"Mark Shortland has created an ingenious and diabolical solution for this purpose. A natural box, the mentalist never touches it, easy to use ... It could well be what you were looking for." Luke Jermay
You ask public members to write their favorite songs (or their first kisses, three -digit numbers, what you want!) On a piece of paper before placing it in a cardboard box that is at the foot of the scene.
The box never leaves the public's gaze and no one never touches it.
During the show, you invite a spectator to approach, open the box.
She immerses her hand in it and comes out a paper at random. Without knowing it, in the gesture of opening the box, the spectator exchanges the many papers of spectators for others that you have prepared before the show.
Use this to force a song, a number, the name of a personality. You can use the information written by spectators later during the show.
The mentalists will immediately understand the many possibilities offered by this box. It is light as a feather, can be decorated as you wish, and the effect we describe to you is only a very simple base!
The spectator exchanges tickets. You never touch the box!
You will quickly fall in love with the ingenuity of this small box, the way it is designed, and the folds that make it automatic. Impossible to miss, impossible that spectators imagine a single second that this box is faked.
"Amazebox is ingenious as a tenyo effect, so practical, and you can use it on stage!" Joshua Jay
