My Lecture Notes by Julio Montoro

My Lecture Notes is the most crazy project EVER launched by Julio Montoro. As if you are having a lecture in your home, you will receive a gorgeous book with all the gimmicks to learn 18 impossible creations by Montoro that will blow your spectators’ minds.

You will acquire all the cognitive processes and psychomotor skills to understand magic from the inside, learning how your brain works when creating magic thanks to the theory section of the book.

Each one of the 18 effects are explained in more than 3 hours of video tutorials and performances that will help you to understand how each magic works and how to use each one of the included gimmicks to construct all your creative stuff.

The project is divided into four main sections:

• Creativity Theory: in which Julio Montoro will introduce you to his Creativity Dissociation theory, which will help you to understand how to make your brain work towards creating new magic tricks.
• Everyday Carry Magic: in which Montoro will explain 7 effects using high-quality gimmicks to carry with you in your pocket all day.
• Impromptu Magic: as every good Spanish magician, Julio will show you how to smart impromptu magic using cards and objects.
• Social Media Magic: in this section you will learn how to create highly visual gimmicks to do top social media magic that will also be used in real live situations.
