Focus Description:

On the table is a piece of paper rolled up into a tube. The magician takes it, unfolds it and shows it to the audience. Viewers see that it is a blank sheet of paper. The magician rolls a bag out of it. Holding it with his left hand, he shows the audience with his right. There is nothing in the hand. The artist makes a movement, as if he caught something in the air and puts it in a bag. Having invited an assistant to the stage, he overturns a bag into her tray, and bright flowers spill out of it. The magician unfolds the bag and again shows the audience a blank sheet of paper.

The artist repeats the trick again and again.

Focus secret:

To demonstrate this trick, you will need a sheet of whatman paper the size of a newspaper page and 60-70 paper flowers. This number of colors must be divided into three parts. Put each part in a pack. Put one pack a little away from the left corner of the paper sheet, the second - away from the right corner, and the third - in the middle of the sheet. Now you need to cut three paper strips. Lay each paper strip like a belt across the petals and glue the ends to the paper sheet with patches of plaster or glue.

Thanks to this, all packs of flowers will fit snugly against the paper sheet. And this makes it possible to twist and fold the sheet as you like.

Having prepared a paper sheet for demonstrating the trick, roll it into a tube so that the bundles of flowers are inside, and place it on the illusion table. You will unroll the tube by holding a sheet of paper with both hands and turning its clean side towards the audience. Then make a bag out of the sheet and, turning it upside down, twist the corner. This will especially convince the audience that there is nothing in the bag.

Making a movement with your right hand, as if you were catching something in the air and putting an imaginary object into the bag, you put your right hand into it and quickly tear off the paper belt from one of the packs of flowers. Freed from the belt, the flowers open and fill the bag. Having invited an assistant, pour the contents of the bag onto the tray. Then do the same movements a second and third time.

The production of flowers deserves special attention. They are made from tissue paper like paper balls for the Christmas tree. The shape of flowers can be any - both spherical and elliptical. The outer petals of each flower should be made green, and the inner petals should be of different colors, but always bright. Flowers should be easy to fold when "charging" and quickly open at the right time. They achieve this with the help of an ordinary clock spring from a damaged alarm clock. Such a spring is a thin plate twisted into a spiral.

Unwinding it, cut off pieces 4-5 cm long from the spring. Each of them is bent in half. There should be as many segments of the spring as there will be colors.

Put each bent plate on the middle of the petals and seal with other petals. The outer petals of both halves of the flower are double, and the plate is laid between them. Thanks to this, the flower can be easily folded and attached to a paper sheet. Now you just have to release the flower from the belt, as it will instantly open.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Successful control of hot qubits 19.04.2020

Intel is one step closer to realizing practical quantum computers. The chipmaker, together with his partner QuTech, were able to successfully control "hot" qubits (that is, at temperatures above 1 Kelvin), which are also coherent and dense, which simplifies the placement of qubits and control electronics on a single chip and thus allows the implementation of more advanced quantum computers.

Until now, quantum computers have had to operate at temperatures in the millikelvin range, or just above absolute zero (about -273 degrees Celsius). This is even less than the average temperature in outer space (about 3 Kelvin or about -270 degrees Celsius).

At the same time, the demonstration of the capabilities of Intel and QuTech can be called relatively modest. The companies completed testing using two-qubit logic, although modern quantum computers are capable of handling dozens of qubits, and a fully functional computer may require more than 1 million qubits. This is "just one step" towards scalable quantum computers, according to Intel. However, this is an important step, demonstrating that the technology is more viable than it seems today.
