★A Wild Coin routine using three different types of coins!★A generous helping of rubber band routines!
◎This volume is split into two parts: coin magic in the first half and rubber band magic in the second.
★A Comment from Nobuyuki Nojima
This time I tried something different, with coin magic in the first half and rubber band magic in the second.
For the coin magic, I present a rather geeky routine you might call an "International Wild Coin."
For the rubber band magic, I combined several pieces I've been quietly developing for about eight years into a substantial set.
I think it turned out even more geeky than usual, but I hope you'll find something useful in it.
◆For those looking for routines beyond cards!◆
◆Recommended for anyone searching for fresh ideas!◆
Transcript Summary
Running time: approx. 1 hour 42 minutes
This lecture focuses on effects using everyday objects, coins and rubber bands, and includes both performances and explanations of the techniques.
(1) A vanish-and-appearance performance using three special coins (a silver coin, a copper coin and a holed coin). The other two coins change one after another into the coin chosen by a spectator, and in the end everything returns to its original state. It is an original arrangement building on Chris Kenner's routine and ideas from Tsutomu Watanabe. Fundamental classic coin techniques such as the Click Pass, Curl Palm and a sideways-take Retention Vanish are explained carefully.
(2) A range of rubber band effects: "Strike," in which the patterns of two rubber bands switch places; "Coth-Tentric"-style effects in which a band appears to penetrate the thumb or the fingers formed into a circle; a restoration effect in which a band is broken and restored; and the classic "Jumping Rubber Band," in which a band instantly jumps from finger to finger. The principles behind each routine, the wrist and finger movements, and the hand positions that create blind spots from the audience's view are explained in detail.
(3) The Wild Coin uses three types of coins, a half dollar, a penny and a holed coin. The remaining coins change one after another to match the coin chosen by a spectator, and in the end all return to their original state. Handling of the extra coin, switches using the Shuttle Pass, Spellbound and Thumb Palm, a structure for repeated performances, and practical performing tips such as choosing the wallet and mug to use are also discussed.
Throughout, the emphasis is not only on the impact of each effect but also on the principle of "why it looks that way" and on building covers that take the audience's sightlines and angles into account. The content is well suited to those who have already mastered the basic techniques of coin and rubber band magic and want to learn practical handlings for performing in front of an audience. The origins of each trick and related literature and performers are also touched on, so you can learn while understanding the background of the techniques.
