Psi-Kalc
by Banachek and Gene Protas
Effect
A random number (several digits long) is arrived at by members of the audience. A pocket calculator is used to ensure that the magician could not have known the number in advance. A member of the audience is asked to concentrate on each of the digits in the number. The magician proceeds to "read the audience member's mind" by correctly revealing each digit of the final result.
In performance, a pocket size scientific calculator is displayed and shown to work normally. Simple calculations are executed which demonstrate that the calculator keys function correctly (addition, multiplication, subtraction and division). If desired, scientific functions can be demonstrated to work normally as well (e.g. square root).
BIG ADVANTAGES:
No Stooges Easy to Do No Sleights Required Complete illustrated instructions with bonus tips and routines by working magicians Perform Any Time, Anywhere Can be performed for an audience of one to hundreds Can be immediately repeated with different results Performer can use it as regular calculator when not performing the effect Hard shell protective caseWhat Magicians are saying about Psi-Kalc:
"The best calculator I've ever seen!"
-Bill Palmer
"It's so good I use two."
-Mike T
"So good it should be illegal."
-Trevor Duffy
"A virtual Tour de Digits!"
-Brian Nordstrom
Comes complete with scientific calculator and instruction booklet.

Psychokinetic Silverware
by Gerry And Banachek
If you really could bend metal with your mind, Psychokinetic Silverware is exactly how it would look. Watch as cold, hard steel melts like butter...bending, twisting, breaking and moving seemingly on its own. Tines on forks twist like spaghetti and spread apart like a blooming flower. Silverware moves and bends in the spectator's hand!
Banachek's metal bending is so amazing and so realistic that he has often been accused of being and doing 'the real thing.' In fact, after studying Banachek's metal bending the McDonnell Laboratory for Psychic Research proudly announced to the scientific community that they had discovered someone with genuine psychic abilities! The National Inquirer and other media have also heralded Banachek's psychokinetic talents.
On this videotape, Gerry and Banachek finally reveal the real secrets to these amazing routines. Not only will you get to see how everything looks in performance, you'll also learn the real inside work, the fine points and psychology of metal bending. These are secrets which have been very tightly guarded...until now.
What People Are Saying:
"Psychokinetic Silverware is a terrific source of information. If you have a desire to add a metal bending routine to your repertoire, this DVD, should be your first stop."
-Michael Close "Wow! This tape has great information on bending silverware, from guys who do it for a living. I just became interested in learning this aspect of our art. Thank you Gerry and Banachek!"
- Lance Burton
"This is the best metal-bending tape I've seen. It deals with the psychological touches and misdirection needed to make this effect really work. Too many performers approach it as a magic trick and look for novelties and clever gaffs-but this is the real stuff, discussed and considered in rewarding detail. Certainly of immense interest to the professional as well as the novice. Excellent work, and congratulations."
- Derren Brown
"Banachek is BY FAR the best I've ever seen at bending metal! No one comes close!"
- Mac King
"Banachek's work with metal bending is the state of the art. This is the real work, the psychology and the little touches that make for miracles!"
- Ben Harris, author of Gellerism Revealed
"I am proud to say that Banachek is definitely one of the top in the field of metal bending."
- Guy Bavli
"Metal bending remains the finest psychic illusion of all, and Banachek remains its finest exponent and teacher."
- Ian Rowland, author of Full Facts Book of Cold Reading
"Banachek is unlike any metal bender I have ever seen. He just seems to be nearby whenever forks and spoons take on an unexpected life of their own."
- Richard Busch, Psychic Entertainer, Master Hypnotist, author of Peek Performances
Make metal bend with your mind...or so it will appear.

Banachek s Psychokinetic Time Trick Do you remember the stunning magic effect that Master Magic Man David Blaine used to open his "Street Magic" TV special?
In effect, he borrowed a watch from a man sitting in his car and checked the correct time. He placed the watch back in the man's hands and then asked him to think of a number to move the time. The man said "24" and after a few seconds of mental hocus-pocus, the man opened his hands and saw the watch indeed MOVE AHEAD 24 MINUTES! The reaction was incredible!
Now, you can learn the original method and forcing techniques used for this amazing effect in Banacheck's 26- page manuscript Psychokinetic Time. After being long out of print, Banachek has re-released this monumental effect. Psychokinetic Time comes complete with nine clear photos and descriptive text that details the ultimate impromptu method for altering the time on a spectator's watch while held in their own hand!
Other effects and concepts with watches are also discussed using the secret principles. No "gadgets" or difficult handling.
This is for the serious magician, mentalist or conjuring enthusiast - but can be mastered by anyone!
