Pattern of chance by Nathan Mailloux

The Effect
A spectator freely chooses a card and commits it to memory. You introduce a blank piece of paper and fold it several times in front of them. Using a pair of scissors, you begin to make random, chaotic cuts. Scraps fall to the floor, and the pattern seems to make no sense… until the reveal.
You unfold the paper to show that your random cuts have perfectly formed the silhouette, index, and value of their chosen card!

Why You’ll Love It
Easy to Perform: No complex sleight of hand required. The method is clever and reliable.

Organic Props: Uses ordinary paper and scissors. No expensive refills or “magic” props.
The Ultimate Souvenir: The spectator can take the cutout home as a physical proof of the impossible.

Angle-Proof: Perform it surrounded, in close-up, or even on stage.

Instant Reset: Ready to go again in seconds.
