Andy Martin –
Scott Creasy created the original BIP Book c. 2003 and then c. 2005 created this second version. Both were produced and released by Peter Nardi’s Alakazam Magic.
I love this innocent looking book 🙂
When it comes to actually performing magic to real people, give me one of these bad boys over the latest electronic gizmos any day. I mean it. The BIP Book will never let you down and you will really look like you are reading their minds. One viewing of the wonderful Peter Nardi download is all you need (43 minutes) and you will look like you can read minds. This is going straight into my Christmas show.
One of the problems I have with electronic gadgets apart from the obvious cost and potential to fail, is that they are too easy to do and require no real effort on the part of the performer. “Push-Button Magic” as Ed Massey would call it. What I really like about the BIP Book is that although there is hardly any memory work (after you’ve done it once or twice you’ll be good for the rest of your life), you have to “feel” your way through to the answer which looks organic and like real mind-reading. When you are given the number on an electronic readout, it is too easy and too clinical and you need to work a lot harder to impress the audience. It can be done, but it is more work to be convincing for sure – partly because you can’t believe how easy it was to do the trick yourself!
The only potential issue with the BIP Book is that you can’t repeat all of the effects to the same audience. This is true, but I consider it a small issue for my performance needs and look forward to working a lot with this.
The BIP Book 2.0 is perfect in my book. 🙂
