Here is THE section you have been waiting for to share a privileged moment with Dominique Duvivier. In a questions/answers form, he opens up as never before: you will discover the secrets of his magic, his vision of life, as well as his art. You will benefit from precious advice to make your horizon grow and become more competent in your way of doing magic. A unique opportunity to discover the theoretical aspects behind the practice!  

In a tripartite conference, no one ever agrees, right? This magic trick starts the same way: three spectators randomly choose cards and aces, which are all different. No one is connected... it's worthy of a political debate! Only there, the magic works: the fourth ace, which was not chosen by anyone, not only has the power to find the cards chosen by each of the spectators, but also to multiply himself! Here are our three spectators now in perfect symbiosis... And that's not all! The multiplied Aces suddenly lose their backs to the famous chosen cards, so that there is only one regular Ace left. Then the chosen cards find their regular back in contact with a spectator, because deep down it's normal, the spectator is not a magician! The four multiplied Aces reappear in the hands of the mediator embodied by the magician and are transformed at sight into four perfectly different Aces, while the three chosen cards are found in the deck of cards. Another little "Duvivier" madness that will drive your spectators crazy! A little gem to be discovered without further delay!  

An incomprehensible card "sandwich" effect that goes crescendo! A chosen card by the spectator is miraculously between two red kings. Twice ! Fast, efficient and very bluffing!  

Three pieces are taken out of a wallet and put on the table. The hands are shown empty. Let's go for some magic! You put two coins in the left hand and the third in the right pocket. Instantly the coin leaves the pocket and joins the two coins in the left hand! No special coins are used. Even better: you start again two or three times and the third coin you put in the right pocket will always join the two others in your left hand! In Final the three pieces disappear completely and this time they are in your pocket! Thanks to this wonderful but easy trick, you will discover manipulation techniques to make invisible the coins hidden in your hand... In a few days, with a little work and passion, you will enter the wonderful world of illusion…  

For example, how do you include the big dot of the Ace of Spades in the middle of the back of a card?  

How to make your own double facers, double backers? How do you split a card and then glue it? We strongly advise you to see all these chapters in order for an optimal understanding of this subject essential to any serious card magician.  

Tony Slydini showed me one night his fabulous pin-in-pin routine, very different from the others ... The movements were really extraordinary, but there was an open key pin and no easy change... I thought about it the next night and came up with this concept, which allows, without changing the pin, to be able to check everything at the end... A small miracle to be done very, very close !

With a simple deck of cards, you will take your audience far...very far! To begin with, it is a very surprising mirror effect with a chosen card (for example a king of clubs) whose reflection is printed on another card... Striking! Then you put this card in your pocket, but it keeps coming back: it is omnipresent! Finally the spectator suspects that the deck is only made up of kings of clubs, but no ! For the final effect, the deck is shown to be nothing but 9s of diamonds ! Very strong and visual. It's a beautiful routine.

Four cards chosen by the spectator mysteriously appear in the magician's wallet. And it's not over yet: the journeys multiply!  

"Pinch/ear twist" technique

This very useful technique in balloon sculpture was described by Roger Siegel in Roger's Rubber Jungle, 1973

"Split pinch twist" technique

To add detail to the sculpturs

"Bird body" technique

Technique probably invented by Ralph Dewey.  

A great classic revisited! There are always four aces, but not only that: you also have a deck. You spread out the cards and Aces turn over one by one, then turn into any card, then back into Aces and all this thanks to the famous "Twisting": that's the rule! As a connoisseur, you will appreciate it!  

At the beginning, this flourish by Marlo was only used to turn over a card magically and aesthetically. Dominique Duvivier adapted this move to secretly turn over a Himber Wallet. Very very useful and the applications are multiple!  

A magician inevitably leaves his fingerprints on his deck of cards. So, when the spectator chooses a card and puts his fingerprint on it, the magician will only have to locate double fingrprints to find the card! Yes, the scenario is crazy, but the result is more than baffling!  

A great trick that won't require a lot of work. Starting from a normal deck, you will be able to magically pull out the four aces from different parts of the deck. A magical moment to share without moderation with your spectators!  

This sculpture is based on a lion by Shirley Ray, which was probably inspired by the one described by Ralph Dewey in Dewey's new balloon animals (1976), and whose proportions I modestly and simply modified.
