Magic Review - DEQODE by David Jonathan & Kevin Aust

Magic Orthodoxy delivers a thorough review of DEQODE, a groundbreaking magic app created by David Jonathan and Kevin Aust. This isn't your typical trick; it's a versatile platform leveraging QR codes and barcodes to create a wide array of effects. The app, purchased directly and accessed via download (with a free trial available), allows magicians to link virtually any barcode or QR code to a pre-programmed outcome, opening up incredible customization possibilities. David showcases several impressive effects, including a Magazine Reveal, Receipt Reveal, Social Media Reveal, Terrace Cafe Trick, Any Card at Any Number routine, and a Free Will Plot. He highlights the extensive three-hour tutorial, the ability to use a spectator's own phone, and the app's potential for creating unique and personalized routines. David Jonathan himself is clearly enthusiastic, calling it 'the app effect that I’ve always wanted,' and emphasizing that the demonstrated effects are just the 'tip of the iceberg.' Overall, DEQODE is presented as a robust and innovative tool for magicians seeking to integrate modern technology into their performances, offering a compelling blend of versatility and engagement.
