Trinity by Mark Lemon

Created by: Mark Lemon

Trinity is a modern mentalism and close-up magic trick created by Mark Lemon, designed for use with borrowed iPhones. The effect involves the magician performing multiple-out predictions directly in the spectator's Notes app, covertly peeking at information not displayed on the screen while the phone is in the spectator's hands, and secretly monitoring real-time Google or Wikipedia searches without leaving any trace in the browser history. This creates a highly deceptive and interactive experience, as all actions occur through genuine apps and websites, making it appear as pure magic. It is ideal for mentalists and magicians seeking a versatile, commercially viable routine that leverages everyday technology, with no installation required on the spectator's device and support for multiple languages including English, French, German, and Spanish. Buyers should note that it requires both the performer's and spectator's phones to be iOS devices and may need the free Bridge app for full functionality.
