Memorable by Richard Busch

MEMOrable! is my latest work, previously available only to my P.E.A. colleagues. It is an information access device. You will have full access to anything written down, drawn, or sketched. It does the job of a gimmicked memo pad or board. The access is direct, no reflections or reversed images. No electronics. So, what is so memorable about MEMOrable!? Two words. No Gimmicks.
MEMOrable! is just an ungimmicked memo book. Positively no gaffs of any kind in any way. Just the memo book. I have identified two types of memo books and their different properties. I supply you with both types (that really are easily available) and a colored, glossy covered booklet of 24 pages of complete handlings and comprehensive text including two dozen pictures (similar in sequential, step-by-step nature to the 175 pictures in Peek Encores). If you like what Busch's Billet did to the old historical necessity of switching and tearing, then you will like what MEMOrable! will do for your collection of gaffed and gimmicked writing surfaces in your "stuff best forgotten" drawer.
Besides the different handlings via text and photos, even jaded readers will enjoy studying the ungimmicked approach, psychology, and timing. Learn to apply the "tunnel of attention" principle and how to control a participant's gaze.
Imagine bringing a memo book with you, performing, and leaving it behind (or at least let the participant remove her own sheet and find absolutely nothing out of the ordinary). Imagine borrowing a memo book, doing the effect, and returning it. MEMOrable! plays exactly like that."
