Cd Matrix

The guy with the CD's - the guy with the hair! I think I will call him 'The guys with a visual and easy to do matrix for all the beginners and small handed magicians out there" from now on. Yep, this is fun. If you do a coin matrix then you know what I mean. Here is an effect that uses the props and patter to have it make sense.

You show four pieces of a broken CD. You place 4 jumbo cards (yes, jumbo cards...now you can't complain about someone seeing you steal that coin anymore!) over the four separate broken CD pieces. With the simple moves explained in the instructions all four pieces move across to come into one pile... a la matrix! Then you show all the pieces are fused back into a solid CD!

What I like: It is visual, it makes sense, uses jumbo cards - so you can't really screw this one up, and has a great ending. Basically everything. However, the instructions did refer me to pictures that I seem to have been missing. Could just be my set. All in all, I think this was well worth it. Recommend!
