Soulmate by Hide and Sergey Koller

Effect

Soulmate presents a large board that spectators can write or draw on. The magician uses this board for various routines. A spectator may draw a picture or write a word. The magician then reveals a matching drawing or word on their own board. In comedy routines, the magician might fish for a specific action like "eat" and produce a surprising reveal. The prop can also make objects like bills or cards switch places. One routine involves a drawn elephant that spectators seemingly forget. The effects range from mentalism to comedy, all using the same board.
