The Algorithm
An effect this good is almost unfair. Almost.What if you could access a piece of technology so advanced that it can instantly determine what card a spectator is thinking of?
A routine so deceptive that by the time you’ve completed the first phase, you’re already five moves ahead of your audience?
A hidden principle so powerful that you’ll actually fool yourself… even when you know how it works?
THE ALGORITHM is all that — and more.
THE ALGORITHM is not just a routine. It’s a four-phase act that’s always ready to go.
Imagine the following:
– The audience shuffles a deck and pulls out any five cards at random.
– You load up The Algorithm on a borrowed smartphone.
– The spectator enters any four of the chosen cards into The Algorithm.
– The Algorithm processes the data and reveals the unknown card… with 100% accuracy.
That’s interesting enough on its own, but to really demolish the critics, you’re gonna need to do it again. So you do.
But this time, you up the odds:
– The audience chooses any four cards this time.
– The spectator enters any three of the chosen cards into The Algorithm.
– The Algorithm processes the data and reveals the unknown card… with 100% accuracy.
It really is that straight-forward.
But it doesn’t end there. You repeat the feat yet again, with just three cards. Two of them are entered… and once again, the third is revealed with 100% accuracy.
What your audience just witnessed has now left the space of statistical improbability and entered a realm of downright impossibility. And just as their brains begin to catch up…
The Algorithm predicts the location and order of every single card in the deck… with 100% accuracy.
“Yves has built a quick, strong, and entertaining piece of magic
with one of 20th-century card magic’s most surprising methods at
its core. I liked it so much that I contributed an alternative way
to perform it that’s 100% self-working. Use any regular deck and
any borrowed phone, with no pairing or apps to download or update.
The Algorithm is well designed, fooling, and fun to perform.”
