PDF

These were the notes from a lecture by Darwin Ortiz at the International Magic Convention in London in 2007.

The lecture notes contain 4 effects:

Beyond Collecting -.. Three cards are selected and lost in the deck The four aces then magically appear face up in the deck A moment later, the selections materialize between the aces Perfect faro required..

Passing Through -.. For of a kind are lost in one half of the deck which is shuffled by a spectator The performer turns the other half face up He then shuffles the two halves together, pushing on half through the other the four of a. kind are now found together, face down in the middle of the face up half, h *** ing been caught in the process.

Hard Target -. Two spectators select cards and return them to the deck (Both the process of selecting the cards and losing them in the deck is exceptionally fair.) The performer shuffles the two red jacks into the deck and traps the selection between them. He then tosses the jacks into the deck and catches the second selection between them.

Test Your Luck -. A spectator names any card She then inserts a random card into the deck In the process, she locates the card she had named..

The "Ephemeral" in the title refers to the fact the notes were *** ailable only at the lecture.
