I remember a trick i saw a few years back...
where the spectator circled some numbers on a lottery / bingo sheet thing and the were transmitted to the magician who had a little led screen on the bottom of a deck of cards - and the numbers scrolled across.

does anyone remember what it was called and where i might get one??
thanks.

How do you know the method? :roll:

What you describe sounds familiar but never was a thing of interest to me (never really cared a lot for methods that could fail for which I had not "out" for.)

Tomo has one book out on electronics for mentalists, you may ask him.

the method was in the description and all the advertising material...
I guess - it's because the people looking at the adverts are magicians anyway... and they wanted you to know what you were paying for.

I know the trick you mean. The company specialises in very high-end electronics for mentalism, and advertises a lot in Magicseen.

But I can't remember the name of the trick or the company! Will get back to you if I find it.

EDIT: You got me curious enough to dig out Magicseen. The company, of course, is Fabrice Delaure, whose products are now being handled by Magikdata.

That specific trick doesn't seem to be available any more. The only effects being sold are the Psychic Clipboard and Platinum Akana.
