EFFECT #1:
A pocket calculator is shown to the spectators and a brief description is given on how to enter numbers, to add numbers, and to clear the calculator display. The performer demonstrates this by adding some numbers and pressing the = button, the proper total shows up on the display. Thus the spectators are taught how to add on a calculator. The performer then writes a secret prediction, folds it, and gives it to someone to hold. The display is cleared by pressing AC. Four spectators then add numbers to the calculators as follows: The calculator is given to (spectator #1 who enters any three digit number and presses the + button. Spectator #2 hands it to spectator #3 who enters another three digit number. Spectator #3 then hands it to spectator #4 who presses the = button the prediction is red and it matches the total that is on the display. The effect can be repeated over and over with a different prediction each time.
EFFECT #2
The performer talks about “psychokinesis” — the ability of the mind to control, change or move inanimate objects. Examples would be using mind control to lift chairs, bend keys, repair watches, move a glass of water, etc. the performer attempts to demonstrate psychokinesis by using an everyday household item – the pocket calculator. A brief demonstration of the workings of a calculator is given (similar to that used in Effect!). The display is cleared by pressing AC. A spectator is then given the calculator and asked to enter any four digit number. The spectator closes the case. The performer gives the calculator to a second spectator to hold (use secret move #2 – described later). The performer concentrates and attempts to use mind control to change the number on the display to another predicted by the performer. After some strong mental concentration, spectator #2 looks at the calculator. The number on the display has mysteriously changed. It matches the performer’s predicted number.
EFFECT #3
A brief demonstration of the workings of a calculator and how to add and subtract with a calculator is given (similar to that in Effect #1). The display is cleared by pressing AC and a black screen is placed over the display so that nobody can read it. A spectator is told to keep adding and subtracting three digit and four digit numbers on the calculator. The performer, who has his back turned, suddenly calls out “STOP”. The spectator then presses the button marked =. The black screen is removed and the display matches the number stated by the performer.
You receive the gimmicked, timeless calculator and the detailed instructions. Easy to do but unbelievable for the audience!
