Hello Stranger! part 3
Hello again. This is the final part of the Head Hacking update and it concerns the products that we are launching soon.
We start off with Reality is Plastic: The Interview. This 5 hour MP3 CD is packed with content as Igor Ledochowski mines the depths of Anthony's experience with hypnosis. From his beginnings in hypnotherapy, through performance, Reality is Plastic book, The Manchurian Approach and The Trilby Connection.
This product contains the hypnotism approach that is taught on the Head Hacking training courses, plus a number of insights and revelations that don't appear in other products.
Reality is Plastic: The Interview is available now from Head Hacking.
Coming very soon will be the Head Hacking Tannen's Magic Lecture DVD. Filmed in New York City at the famous Tannen's Magic Shop and featuring Anthony Jacquin, Amit Badiani and Marcus Lewis, this lecture DVD features multiple demonstrations and thoughts on phenomena and performance. You can see the trailer here.
Another imminent release is Ripped Apart. This 80 minute audio CD is a conversation between Anthony and I describing the hypnosis scientific research that we've been reading over the last year. During our research we had an idea and made what we think is a small leap forwards from the established science and ended up with a hypnosis model of our own. The new model promises to provide a means to hypnotise more people and also achieve greater phenomena. We are very excited about this. :)
Following on from Reality is Plastic: The Interview will be Reality is Plastic: Audiobook. Everything in the book, read to you by Anthony.
Magicians and mentalists should be on the look-out for our brand new Mad Pads. Can't reveal anything more here but be prepared for a product that has impressed many brilliant minds.
And finally, don't forget the next change | phenomena conference on 16th July 2011. Line up has been confirmed and will be announced very soon!
Best wishes

Hello Stranger! part 2
Hello again. This is the second part of the huge Head Hacking update.
So, last year. We had a mini whirlwind of overseas trips: Lyon (The Manchurian Approach), Las Vegas (invited to teach Street Hypnosis on Igor Ledochowski's course), New York City (lecture at Tannen's Magic Shop), back to Cologne (another Manchu) and Edinburgh (The Trilby Connection). This year kicked off with a trip to Sydney (Trilby) and then picked up with Paris (Manchu) and Las Vegas (invited to teach Street Hypnosis on Jay Noblezada's HTG Live).
Edinburgh was during the snow but the gods of hypno stopped the downfall just before our trip and started again a day after we left. Pretty handy because my car (being rear-wheel drive and quite light) doesn't work very well in snow. A year before we were sliding around the M25 at 30MPH trying desperately to make it to Gatwick so we could get out to Cologne to teach a Manchu - I mean, London and snow doesn't really happen. Scotland and snow, on the other hand, happens all year round; but we had snow socks and a shovel so we thought it would be find - and it was! Many thanks to ace mind reader, Colin McLeod, for helping to arrange this course.
HTG Live in Las Vegas was amazing; 50 delegates, multiple trainers, a great setting, sunshine, cocktails and loads of street hypnosis. Paul Vigil's performances (on the course and also at The Mirage) were awesome; he is clearly one of the best.
We are off to New York at the end of the month to teach The Trilby Connection and we're both really looking forward to it. Later in the year we will be back in Australia, Las Vegas and across Europe. We are thinking about south east Asia, south America and Antartica, so if you live in one of those regions and are interested in training let us know so that we can register your interest.
In the next (and last part) of this update I will describe the products that we've been working on since last summer and hopefully raise your excitement over their impending release.
Happy hypno

Hello stranger!
Hello again. I bet you wondered where this blog was going; four posts and then nothing. Well, it just so happens that Head Hacking really took off last year and Anthony and I have both been really busy. This blog post is really just a catch-up to describe our journey to now.
It all started with Reality is Plastic: The Art of Impromptu Hypnosis - the book that Anthony wrote following our involvement with Hypnosurvival. For those that don't know, it teaches a flexible and effective impromptu approach to hypnosis all within 100 easy-to-read pages.
To accompany RIP (Reality is Plastic), Anthony produced Reality is Plastic: The Set Pieces and Inductions DVD. This really provides a clear and visual demonstration of many of the important concepts in RIP.
Shortly after we launched our first course, The Manchurian Approach - Hypnotism for Magicians, the best-known on-line magic shop in the UK - Alakazam - got in touch and offered to make the DVD set. Knowing next to nothing about making DVDs, we jumped at the chance and the four-disc The Manchurian Approach DVD Set was released in July 2009. It was an amazing experience and one in which we learned a lot.
Now that we'd seen behind the curtain and understood a little about how to make a DVD, we embarked on making the equivalent for our other course, The Trilby Connection - Effective Street Hypnotism. Overthrow | UK (the design company we have used since the outset) had just expanded into sound and video and presented the opportunity to make it with us. We rented a set, arranged some participants and just got on with it. It wasn't cheap to make, but the love we put into it produced, in our minds, something of particular beauty and something that we are very proud of. There are only half-a-dozen or so known glitches that couldn't be fixed and to us it is 99.5% perfect.
The other product that we launched last year was Mask of Sanity. This is a full mentalism effect that can be performed close-up, in parlour or on stage. We have had a lot of fun developing this effect and a lot of great reactions while performing it.
In our first year of running The Manchurian Approach course, we were asked to run the same in Germany for a group of professional mentalists and magicians. Following a successful course, we have since delivered the same course 4 more times in Germany and once in Austria. This pretty much brings us up to the point where things stared to go crazy, on which I will chat in the next update.
Have fun
