Avis perso : Sur le thème 4DT ou Fourth Dimensional Telepathy, si vous avez adoré comme moi la version de Arcole alors celle-ci va vous faire trembler de bonheur. Une merveille ! Tout est simple, bien pensé et a un impact maximum avec un matériel très réduit. C'est le final de Jan Forster et ça se comprend ! La routine utilise plusieurs principes combinés de manière très ingénieuse par ce brillant mentaliste ! 

L'effet décrit sur le site vendeur : 

Back to School is a beautifully printed set of notes that were originally printed for the 4MINDS conference in Newcastle. There are only 24 copies of these notes remaining and once they are gone they will never be reproduced again.

Anyone who knows the work of Jan Forster knows the level of thought and attention that goes into every piece that he performs. This 30-page book contains the real work behind his show stopping routine "School Days" (printed in English for the VERY first time).

School Days has been a staple in Jan's act for over three years and still features as one of the closers to his show and features no less than half a dozen principles which have been beautifully woven together resulting in a routine that will defy explanation for even the most sophisticated of audiences.


THE EFFECT:

Three spectators - one lady and two gentlemen are asked to come on stage. Each of them received a pencil and a coin envelope with each containing a small folded filing card.

The spectators take the cards out of the envelopes and are asked to jot down a thought related to their school days: spectator one visualises a phrase his teacher once wrote upon the chalk board and then secretly decides on any word from that imaginary blackboard which he writes down.

The second spectator (the lady) is asked to revive the moment of her first ever kiss, to remember maybe her age at the time, but most importantly the boy's name which she then notes down.

Finally, the last spectator draws a simple sketch like they would have done in an art lesson. All participants themselves fold their filing card and put them back into envelopes which they immediately seal.

Whilst all of this is done the performer stands far away, touching nothing. In fact, only three pencils, envelopes and filing cards are in play, all regular and all unprepared in any way.

Lastly, the envelopes are labelled with the names of the three participants for later identification before being handed over to a fourth participant for safe keeping (no switching takes place).

The performer then reads one mind after another, recording his impressions on a large sketchpad. Upon opening the first two envelopes one after another, it is proved that the performer was indeed correct so far. The corresponding spectators leave the stage, the lady even takes the envelope, card and performers notes with her so that she will be able to show it to her first love - should the opportunity arise some day.

However, the last spectator's envelope is left shut; having consented to replicate his drawing once again, the third envelope is left on the table and the spectator stands next to the performer, back to back, and simultaneously they both start drawing...

When the pads are turned around and revealed, the sketches match perfectly. Finally, both sketches are autographed by the 'artists' and exchanged between the performer and the spectator as a lasting memory of the event.
