Comments: Limited to 400 copies worldwide. From the product description, "“Within The Black Project, you’ll find an array of painful and funny performance memoirs and the lessons they taught me. My approach to opening a walk around set, my tips on negotiating your fees and the business of mentalism, along with the methods to many of the things I am best known for – including Influence, Enigma, A prediction which fooled the police that had been secured in their evidence room for 24hrs, The Score (heralded as the best method for the Bank Nite plot ever), Peek-A-Choo, The Subliminal Force, Cue & Hay, and much, much more. Already being hailed as the release of the year The Black Project will, in addition to the books, also include performance footage, audio interviews, mind reading memoirs, and other downloadable content.” Available from Looch: http://theblackproject.co.uk/
