Versatile!
For example, a spectator is asked to think of a symbol, a number, or something similar and write it down on a piece of paper for review. They are then asked to fold the piece of paper and put it in their pocket.
The performer now draws a "receiver" on a piece of paper and holds it toward the audience. The audience is then supposed to transmit their imaginary symbol (etc.) to the receiver through mere concentration.
After a short time, the performer looks intently at the "receiver" and then draws something on the back of the receiving paper. When the spectator and performer hold up their papers, the symbols match.
A pocket-sized impression device from Paralabs.
Already exists? That's right! We're not the first to construct something like this—and certainly won't be the last. So why another one? Well, it's quite simple: none of the blocks available on the market met our requirements in the areas that mattered to us!
So we were neither the first to come up with the idea of constructing a pocket writing pad as an impression device, nor were we the first to use the "carbon copy" technique to create the "copy" in this context. So what's so special about it? So what are the differences?
We'll be honest: It's "just" the little things that make the difference. But there are many little things – and they're the crucial ones! Taken together, they characterize the ParaPad as the very thing that enabled us to meet all of our crucial requirements. It's our pad, designed for our needs.
Included in the set:
- An elegant yet unobtrusive pocket-sized writing pad (A6).
- A handling by both the performer and the participant that is completely natural.
- No complicated or unusual movements or manipulations should be required; neither during the subject's writing or drawing, nor during the withdrawal or during the peek!
- No restrictions for the contributor as to where to write on the pad!
- So there is no need to force a specific position on the sheet more or less subtly.
- The test subject can use every square millimeter of the sheet and we always get our peek!
- A peek that happens right before the viewers' eyes in seconds.
- A handling that allows the ParaPad to be used completely around the circumference and still retain the peek!
- A copy of the writing/drawing that is neither reversed nor too small and therefore difficult to read!
- A reset option within seconds; so that the pad can be used again before the information obtained by the first peek has even been presented!
- The ability to integrate replacement paper into the pad without the hassle of threading and knotted fingers. Refill in seconds!
We were able to meet these self-imposed demands with the design of the ParaPad. We certainly didn't reinvent the wheel, but it's the sum of the small details and subtleties that make the difference!
Included in the set:
- The ParaPad, format 13 x 7.5 cm - ready to use
- An online manual that – in the usual full-color illustrations – discusses and illustrates all aspects of handling (bilingual German/English)
- a special pen
- Replacement paper in the form of a block for refilling the ParaPad
An indispensable tool for the mentalist.
