I joined here for the same reason - to incorporate some memorization into my magic.

I use Mnemonica for a few routines, and have my own stack memorized too, but have a new routine which needs real in-the-moment memorization to work. It is based on Pit Hartling’s great “Unforgettable” routine (in Card Fictions) but using a borrowed, shuffled deck.

I’m trying to get 13 cards memorized in under 20 seconds, which is proving to be quite difficult! With a lot of practise I got down to under 40 seconds, but still a long way to go. Also, for the routine PAO won’t really be practical, so I’m doing one card per loci (locus?) but then only need to use 13 for the routine.

If any magicians are curious about the handling then let me know. I think it will be very fooling when it’s finished 🙂

It took me a while to look at it! Sorry. That’s a lovely snap change. So clean! I love colour changes. I haven’t yet incorporated one into anything I do. One day.
