Mnemonica (Juan Tamariz)

[@borissokol2958]

The last one is so simple yet so powerful!

[@KinnereyB]

Well done 👏🏻 Every serious magician should own all of Juan’s books. 5 Points, The Magic Way, Sonata, Magic Rainbow, and Verbal Magic in addition to Mnemonica. If you combine that with what Dani Daortiz is teaching right now on instant download, you will have armed yourself with much of why Spanish card magicians give Penn & Teller such terror. Their ideas and philosophies are incredible, devastatingly fooling, and incredibly constructed. The ingenuity is next level. Juan Tamariz is the greatest card magician of all time IMO (though Dani is approaching surpassing his teacher if he hasn’t already). The fact that they’re willing to share their secrets isn’t something anyone serious about art of magic should wait on. Get the material. It’ll pay for itself before you know it if you’re willing to put in the practice.

Very nice video and demonstration. I just got into mem decks and found your channel. Great work! I am starting out with Redford, wish me luck!!!

[@joshwilliams3522]

It's a deep rabbit hole, but it's so much fun. Good Luck!

[@Ejohnd1]

Great stuff! Thanks, Josh.

[@lovremrsic2696]

Josh this is great. Love Juan and Mnemonica, thank you :D

[@JohnnyNoPockets]

Woah. That's one sweet Triumph! That third one is awesome AND it's an instant reset?! Man, I gotta start working with Mem lol.

[@Lincriss]

I love to watch mem deck work. All I can do is Si Stebbins 😄 keep up the great work 👍

[@joshwilliams3522]

I love Si Stebbins. You can move from Si Stebbins to Redford in 15 seconds. If you are interested you can email me at [e-mail] I can send you a vid with some info.

Strong tricks Josh

Thank you ab! Appreciate it!

Hey Josh, This is a great video man. Keep up the good work. I have the book but I really don't read it much. I prefer learning from videos. Seeing you perform these effects makes me want to go back and read the book. Keep the videos coming. More mem-deck or stack effects, please.

[@joshwilliams3522]

Thanks Joshua! Not sure if you watched it, but my video, Jazzin' with a mem deck is a favorite of mine.

[@ahmedbasem3569]

Amazing my brother love your handling ♥️✌️

[@shaunting335]

Hey Josh, I'm currently starting to venture into the mem deck world and I really appreciate these vidoes. Do keep it up! I would like to see some more mem deck stuff!

[@joshwilliams3522]

Hey Shaun, I have several mem deck effects on here..."Past Present, Future", "Jazzin' w/ a Mem Deck", "Everybody's Lazy", "A Card and a Number" by Chad Long, "Triple Fried", "Remote Control", "Chaos ACAAN", "Card and a Number", and others. Enjoy the magic!

Great effects well done 👍👍😊👏👏

[@joeyb2946]

The triumph one was magnificent! Bought the book a while back but still haven't gotten to learn the stack😂.. still use the Bart Harding stack lol..but def 3 cool effects!🍺👍

[@Alamobe]

Very convincing!

[@4suits]

That was awesome! Was the last two selections a coincidence? Funny that it's the first and last one of the stack

[@4suits]

Oh, I thought you were using mnemonica!

[@joshwilliams3522]

Ha, yeah, just a coincidence. I'm using the Redford stack in this video. I used Mnemonica for a couple years, but switched over once I realized the power of Redford.

[@4suits]

@@joshwilliams3522 That's cool! I'm a bit of a beginner when it comes to memdeck stuff, but I know mnemonica memorised. What does the redford stack have that made you switch over to that one?

[@thomas.m6593]

Hi, these are very good effects. I just started learning Mnemonica a few days ago. I can almost recite the cards in order, but I can't yet tell which card corresponds to which number, and vice versa. How long did it take you to master it completely?

[@joshwilliams3522]

I used Mnemonica for the first 2 years of my memorized deck work. If you dedicate 30-60 minutes a day on it, I believe you will find yourself becoming relatively proficient in 7-10 days. I would find myself converting every number I saw throughout my day to the card at the number. Road signs, menus, page numbers, everything. Then, I would either go through a shuffled deck turning over cards, or if I didn't have a deck, I would go through new deck order in my head, converting each card to it's position.

Cool

[@DjZephy]

How do you know what card they cut to in the 3rd trick? If it's a random spectator cutting wherever they want? Do you have the deck memorizes so well that you can just see how many cards are in each of the cuts? I understand you have the order memorized but I can't understand how you would be able to count the exact number of cards unless they were marked cards. Tha nks.

[@joshwilliams3522]

If you study the cutting sequence you will see that the bottom and top cards after the cuts were the cards above and below the selections. A quick glimpse and you're home free. Also, since you are in reversed memstack, once you know the selection, you only need to name its position in your memorized stack. This will automatically be its location in the deck. It sounds like real magic, doesn't it? 🤜🤛

[@mjmano2560]

👍👍👍💓

[@Surlaroute22]

Great performance Josh.👏👏👏 Can it be done with any stack or is it Mnemonica stack dependent ?

[@Surlaroute22]

I think I have the answer, you gave it at the end of the video.

[@joshwilliams3522]

Yes Arno, any stack you got it!

[@pppodman]

Fascinating. Wouldn't the triumph effect work on its own w/o the deck order?

[@joshwilliams3522]

Yes it does! Enjoy the magic.

[@MsSuper1121]

Laymen’s view: 5 minutes for a single triumph effect with all the strange card dealings and strange shufflings. Rate it 3/10. Magician’s view: Fascinating, Intriguing, fun, strong effect, powerful. Rate it 10/10.

[@MsSuper1121]

Which one you prefer? Obessing with the mnemonica stack, and no matter how small the reactions are you still think it is very strong OR Amaze laymen and enjoy the moment?

[@gianlucamolinari3490]

@@MsSuper1121 agreed, too much dealing and shuffling. My favorite triumph is the one with the cheek to cheek deck, easy and effective
