In May 2023 Michael Murray was invited to present his 'Experimental' lecture at the wonderful 'May Day of Magic' mini-convention that is held annually in Darlington...To accompany this lecture, Michael produced a set of lecture notes that featured many of the ideas that he presented on the day. Due to the demand for these notes from those that were unable to make this event, Michael has produced a small number of these notes and is now making them available worldwide.To accompany these notes, you will be supplied with several additional props that help to facilitate some of the ideas contained within its pages.Michael stresses that this lecture is both experimental in name and experimental in nature and as such, some of the ideas were being previewed for the very first time. Some of these ideas are still in development and will make their way into future product/book releases after further refinement.This 42-page book includes:Pause for Thought - A Simple yet thought-provoking quote designed to draw the reader's attention to an often overlooked use of language within effects.(NEW) On the Edge *(Props for this will be supplied with this book) - A simple way to create the equivalent of an electronic die for under xc2xa31.00, plus a way of forcing anything you want at any point in your act.(NEW) Trilogy *(Props for this will be supplied with this book) - Reveal three thought of words in a highly direct fashion.
