In 1992 Mark devised
the original 'Chaos & Order' triumph routine, based on a
self-shuffling deck idea that was shown to him by a
Chinese magician when he was living out in Hong Kong. A
little while later Michael Weber suggested the actual
'Chaos and Order' patter theme, which was incorporated
immediately. For a decade Mark performed the routine to a
great effect, in all kinds of working environments.
Recently, several possible improvements occurred,
including a way to increase the number of selections and
make the selection process a lot cleaner. One thing led to
another.. This new version is a substantial improvement on
the original and the assimilation of the "Chaos Machine"
into the card case is, we think, the finishing touch.
Effect
Two spectators each select a card which they hold onto.
The deck is cut in half and placed face-to-face. The deck
is temporarily placed in the "Chaos Machine" (otherwise
known as the card case). The 'CHAOS' button is pressed...
and the deck is immediately removed and spread to show
that all 52 cards are now interlaced face-up and
face-down, in a truly chaotic state. Both sides of the
deck are shown to be in this condition. The spectators'
cards are replaced into the chaotic deck, one face up and
one facedown. The deck is once again placed into the
"Chaos Machine" and this time the 'ORDER' button is
pressed. The deck is cleanly tipped out of the case and
spread to show that every single card is face-up except
for two - the selections.
