Psyware by Matt Mello

The effect begins with a stranger thinking of a common female name, preferably someone whom they know. You go through a very fair and open process that allows the performer to provide a personality reading or fortune telling effect. Following this reading, the performer can accurately guess the thought-of name.

Psyware will also allow you to have multiple people focus on the first letter of a name. You go through the same Psyware process, and you can then deliver multiple personality readings before revealing the letter that each person is thinking of!

- There is no forcing involved
- The name is never written down or spoken aloud
- The performer never asks any questions

Let it be clear that while all of the above is true, there is still a process to be learned and executed, but the greatest advantage of Psyware is that the process feels natural and completely logical. The process makes perfect sense, and it really needs no justification. Nothing feels out of place or unnecessary. The effect and the method blur together seamlessly, making it one of only a few effects where you'll truly feel like you're reading a person's mind!

There are no traditional methods utilized in this system, but we want to be upfront when we tell you that there is some memory work involved. To give you a comparison, if you've ever memorized a progressive anagram or a branching anagram, Psyware will be easier than that.
