Focus by Joel Dickinson

A participant merely thinks of an image. Seconds later, you reveal exactly what they are thinking. Your participant can either think of any image entirely in their mind within a category… or freely focus on an image from your gallery. No writing. No typing. No awkward procedure. No AI and no internet connection required during performance. Focus is a professional performance system built for magicians and mentalists, designed to create impossible thought-reading demonstrations using a completely natural photo-gallery. “This has become a go-to for me. It’s incredibly user-friendly to perform, and the reactions I get are absolutely insane.” — Joe Bainbridge Unlike many digital effects, Focus is built to feel casual, organic, and genuinely natural in performance. The interface mirrors a real photo gallery, allowing the experience to unfold without suspicious handling, strange processes, or awkward procedure. Whether your participant merely thinks of an image in their mind or freely focuses on one from your gallery, the thought remains completely hidden. Use your own photographs, create custom galleries, and reveal thoughts in the way that best suits your performance style. Focus comes ready to perform with a built-in “Who Is It?” gallery, allowing you to start performing immediately straight out of the box. Built for real-world performance with instant reset, flexible handling options, optional smart watch notifications, and completely offline capability. Perfect for close-up, walkaround, social media, casual performances, content creators, and professional magic and mentalism routines.

REVEAL MODES Focus is designed to reveal your participant’s thought in any way you want. If you simply want to secretly discover what your participant is thinking and reveal it later in your own way, Focus allows you to do that in seconds. However, Focus also includes several powerful built-in reveal systems… Live Peek Secretly obtain the thought-of information with invisible handling. Reveal it naturally away from the screen, or also receive the information through an optional notification system on your phone or compatible watch. Mosaic Zoom out from a single image and watch the entire gallery visually transform into a giant mosaic revealing the participant’s exact thought. Falling Tiles The gallery dramatically shatters apart tile by tile, exposing the single image the participant is merely thinking of beneath it. Polarise Shake the device and watch the gallery visually morph and blend into one clear image, the exact image held in the participant’s mind. Recently Added Sometimes the strongest methods are the simplest. Quietly identify the participant’s image using a deceptively innocent reveal process that feels completely genuine and impossible to backtrack. Turnover Appear to arrive at the wrong conclusion before the image unexpectedly transforms, revealing that you knew the participant’s thought all along. Focus is designed for performers who want mentalism that feels impossible, natural, fast, and real.
