Christian Grace Enigma: @adamhillsphotography
Mentalism is at its best when stripped down to its bare bones. The less procedure involved, the more direct the impact. Christian Grace’s new effect Enigma seems to be the closest thing to real mind reading we’ve seen yet. The biggest names in magic are currently raving about the groundbreaking effect before it has even been released. Below are new exclusive details shared by Grace, including the price of the most hyped magic product of the decade.
Currently, a daunting countdown clock sits on Enigma’s website, ticking down to its September 4th release date. Although we don’t know the specifics of the routine, what can be gathered from the teaser and reviews is the participant thinks of two completely random words and without writing anything down or saying anything aloud, the thought is plucked from their mind as the magician or mentalist relays the words back to them. That’s it.
It would be easy to discredit this claim with speculation of many more procedures happening behind the scenes when no full performance has been released, but it’s important to note who the top reviews are coming from. Christian has been performing this effect across the convention circuit, namely MAGIC Live and 4F, where the biggest names in magic congregate. Chris Kenner, Andy Nyman, Danny Garcia, and even Shawn Farquhar are backing this product with their own amazed reactions. David Corsaro is quoted as saying, “I’ve never ever experienced anything like this in magic in my life”.
We reached out to Christian and managed to get some new exclusive details. We wanted him to summarise the trick plainly for us with no glossy trailer or fancy sales pitch. This is what he told us:
Enigma is a new system for mindreading that allows the magician to covertly decipher a word the spectator is thinking of. The spectator doesn’t pick a word from a list or write anything down and the process can be mostly in silence. The system is carried in an app although the effect doesn’t feel like a trick with an app. The phone can secretly assist the performer.
We asked how much the new product will be:
Price £149.99/$199.99/€174.99
And don't panic – it works on iPhone and Android. We've seen Grace perform this, and it's fair to say that the phone is barely in play for the routine.
If you haven’t heard of Christian Grace, you’re missing out. His wide variety of effects out on the market shows his range as a creator. Initially focusing on card magic, he has branched out to other realms of magic, with mentalism being his newest venture.
One of his most popular effects, Switch One, is a utility billet switch that can happen under intense scrutiny. Even when you watch the trailer, it’s hard to believe that there’s any move at all happening to accomplish the effect.
All of his previous releases share the same impossibility factor under simple premises. No procedures or methods get too convoluted, they’re direct and incredibly fooling magic. Enigma is only looking to extend his resume further as one of magic’s best working minds today.
If you’re well acquainted with Christian, you might also be a subscriber to his MAGIC MONTHLY (affiliate link). This subscription service offers access to two new effects monthly, along with providing his entire backlog of previous months' work. If you expect a drop off in quality for this frequent release schedule, think again. Some of the top professionals are using his routines to close their show, but for Christian, that was just his last month’s release.
Enigma has a lot of very important people in the magic industry talking, and it’s bound to make even more of an impact upon its release. If this was your first time hearing the name Christian Grace or if you’re a monthly subscriber, just know you will be hearing that name for a long, long time.
