21 - Magic by Sweden (2 Disc Set) - DVD

Ten inventors and performers of magic took siege of the magic bar in stockholm to record project 21, but it proved impossible to hold a strong fort against the proprietor who opened the doors and laymen flooded the premises. Could they continue their secret work, just a few feet away from the unsuspecting guests? The following takes place between 10 am and 11 pm:

Axel Adlercreutz:
• The Self Bending Straw - A drinking straw bends by itself as you hold it lightly.
• Circle Vanish - A very visual coin vanish.
• Two rope & ring moves - Fast, clean and super visual linking and unlinking of a ring and rope.

Erik Nordvall:
• Memoradix - After three increasingly impossible card locations, the deck ends up in new deck order.
• The Real Green Shuffle - Lennart Green's false riffle shuffle with Erik"s addition.

Johan Ståhl:
• Sleeveless Sleeving - A pen appears, disappears, appears and transforms, a crash course in sleeving!
• Sleeveless & Purseless - Bonus sleeving.

Jonas Ljung:
• Forced Will - An impromptu prediction of how the spectator will place random objects on the table.

Joachim Solberg:
• JS Card Control, Double Lift and Top Change, adapted into three short and powerful card tricks.

Anders Modén:
• Cherry Blossom - Not suitable at the dinner table. Regurgitation, sort of...
• Suction - Impromptu, designed for dinner seatings.

Tim Star:
• Ace routine - Includes Ace Production, the Turnover Muck Switch, Vanishing Aces, the Breakaway Case.

Micke Askernäs:
• Display Bend - Cheeky and visual spoonbending.
• Askernas Retention Pass - Utility coin vanish.

Tom Stone:
• Redneck Remedy - An innovative twist on the multiplying bottles.
• Gap Drive - You will love to practise this magician fooler.
• Clink Catch - An eyecatching stunt. Start with coins, turn them into anything you like.

Tomas Blomberg:
• Time After Time - An amazing principle. Three spectators, a shuffled deck and a series of random events leading to three impossible card revelations that will probably even fool the performer.
