Speaking of Flickr, this is my most recent upload.
It was a publicity stunt I performed at Melbourne Central Shopping Centre back in 1991.
I made a prediction of the headlines of 5 newspapers. My sealed prediction was notarised by then Lord Mayor, Richard Meldrum and was on display for a week, hanging above the mall in a see through safe.
The following week the envelope was opened by radio personality Liz Sullivan.
I was successful with four of the five predictions. I’m not perfect.
In 1996 I did a similar stunt, predicting the results of the first Melbourne Grand Prix, which got me some good T.V. coverage at the time.
Predictions were a feature of my mind reading/hypnotism show, The Mind Illusionist.
Predictions are a great way to promote a magic show or get extra publicity for events. At a fete or festival I could predict the winner of a cake bake-off, the result of a sporting event, or even the winner of the three legged race at a corporate picnic!
I predict in the future I’ll be performing a few more predictions.
