Intuition by João Miranda and Mozique

Effect

Intuition is a magic tool that allows a performer to detect hidden magnetic items. To the audience, it appears as a regular Sharpie marker. The magician can use it to perform various feats. They can identify which envelope contains a metal object by smashing envelopes with a hammer, leaving one unharmed. They can find a hidden chocolate under a paper cup. They can correctly guess a spectator's written name among blank cards. The device works automatically, with no visible actions from the performer.
