Alain Nu's (with David London)
NU SECRETS & REALITIES (Sold out!)
THE BLURB:
A satisfying collection of material taken from Alain Nu's
personal notebooks of original mental routines, premises
and concepts, mixed with an impressive collection of 13
essays on mentalism theory, performance, creativity, as well
as some unconventional opinions.
The reader is taken on a journey into the subtleties of Nu's
methods and madness, as each of the seven chapters unfold
into a truly comprehensive understanding of both mentalism
and mentalist. Alain reveals his most human concerns for the
craft, while contributing much of his most diabolical work,
suitable for stand up, close up, impromptu, and even a
killer over-the-phone routine.
Highlights of Nu Secrets and Realities also include:
- Alain's cutting-edge system for the impromptu divination
of one's zodiac
- An uncanny prediction of a randomly drawn picture
- A unique manner for divining the serial number on a
borrowed bill
- The surprise perceptual appearance of a watch on your
wrist.
- And an unusual metal-bending anomaly submitted for your
approval
All this, and many other solid, audience-tested, and proven
effects that span over 20 years of Alain's performing
career. Some of this material has been uncovered and brought
up-to-date from past contributions in periodicals such as
Stephen Hobbs' Labyrinth, Mary Tomich's The Altar Flame, Lee
Earle's Syzygy, Jeff McBride's Mystery School Book, Alain
Nu's 6, and Joshua Jay's column in Magic Magazine. The
majority of the material in Nu Secrets and Realities,
however, has never-before been in print, but rather has
remained in Alain's personal repertoire for years as closely
guarded secrets.
Anyone who is familiar with his widely sprinkled body of
published work knows how xAlain's style of mentalism
utilizes unusual techniques to create off-beat
presentations. Those who have seen him appreciate his gift
to conjure an experience that is both genuine and
entertaining. Nu is also quite gifted at being able to play
big with a minimal amount of props or even set up (in most
cases), always allowing for maximum focus to be put on one's
style and presentation.
