Focus Description:

Having shown a large silk handkerchief, the performer folds his hands with his palms together and, waving the handkerchief, takes it inside his palms (see Fig. 229)

Focus Turning the handkerchief into an egg and disappearing
Fig. 229

Turning slightly to the right and left, he opens his palms and shows the audience the egg that has appeared in them (see Fig. 230, A). Then, closing the egg in his palms, he makes a movement with his hands, as if rubbing something in them. He opens his palms again - and the audience sees that the egg has disappeared.

Props:

Large silk scarf.

Egg shell with rubber band (pulling "mechanism").

The secret of the trick falls into two parts: the first is the disappearance of the handkerchief and the appearance of the egg (as described above); the second is the disappearance of the egg from the hands.

Here we again resort to the help of thin, strong, elastic rubber. The best fit is the same bicycle nipple tube, one end of which is firmly attached to the egg shell and passed through a small roller fixed in a metal clip. The clip itself is attached to a piece of leather with a safety pin. Thus, the roller can be placed where it is convenient for you, for example, on the inside of a jacket. A loop is tied at the other end of the rubber, which can be worn on a belt or fastened to a button. All simple mechanics are shown in Fig. 231.

At the right moment, turning around, under the cover of the body and waving your hands, you imperceptibly take the shell from under the floor and, pulling the rubber tightly, tuck the handkerchief into it. Show the shell as a whole egg. Using the same distractions (turns and swings), you quietly release the shell from your clenched palms. She instantly disappears under the hollow of the jacket. By continuing to make a rubbing motion with your palms, you can open your hands and show them empty.

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 ... >>

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.
