Dare to be Bold by Peter Turner

Peter Turner – Dare to be Bold

PDF

THE BLURB:


If you are looking for a variety of of hard hitting effects


presented in a fresh fashion this ebook is for you.

Drawing/word duplications that require no pre-show work or


the need for the subject to write anything down, subject to


subject mind reading, data extraction methods, versatile


utility switch methods for envelopes and other objects, fun


and games with fingers, invisible forces that can be applied


to many of your own effects, Peter's thoughts on performance


and much more!

Imagine being able to have a subject verify an envelope is


opaque, then sign it so it cannot be switched and the only


clue you give them as to the contents inside is that it is


an image, (which could be any image in the world). The


subject invites any second member of the audience onto the


stage and the second subject draws an image and when the


envelope is opened the images match!

"Peter is a genius when it comes to creating; he approaches


ideas boldly, solidly and whole heartedly. His methods are a


construct of many hours of thought and testing. His


Mentalism is hard hitting, impossible to figure out and yet


simple for audiences to follow. His presentations are


contemporary and most importantly…interesting. Get your


hands on anything with his name attached to it whilst you


can, you won?t regret it. Enjoy this book of strong


Mentalism and then get out there and perform it! If you


don?t, you will be missing out".


- Chris Rawlins (Author of Mind Experiments with Kenton


Knepper)

"This book is for you if you want pure effects that look as


clean live as any edited tv performance, the subject thinks


it and you guess it with as little compromise as possible,


Another outstanding book from Peter Turner!"


- Eric Ostresh (Real world performer)

MY COMMENTS:


Peter Turner is a new face in the mystery arts world. His


enthusiasm for the art form is certainly apparent, but I


have to admit to being a bit biased by much of the material


within this book, Turner's second after DEVIOUS REALITIES.


Most of the routines use a very risky and controversial


method that many mentalists, including me, won't use.


Magicians and mental magicians may have no problem with it.


Unfortunately, I can't be more specific without tipping much


of the material within the book. For this reason, though, I


have a hard time recommending this, but will definitely


concede that it is because of my bias and personal style.


This material may very well inspire and serve you well. And


quite a few performers have already deemed this material as


brilliant.

Also within the book are a few essays on mentalism, though


with these I will say that most of the advice has been said


before. Also, in comparison with other articles on these


subjects that Turner discusses, it is obvious that he is not


as experienced as others who've written on these subjects.


However, the information presented is certainly not wrong or


misleading or invaluable.

Despite my feelings towards the techniques of this material,


if you liked much of the what was in Peter's first book,


DEVIOUS REALITIES, or Chris Rawlins' MIND EXPERIMENTS, then


you'll like the material in this
