RICHARD WISEMAN, the noted psychologist and magician, has released a new app for the iPhone called Telepath.
It’s been getting good reviews, including this one from none other than Derren Brown, who said it “genuinely triggers that ‘wow – how did you do that?’ response” which has to be a good recommendation.
It looks like the app was designed and/or programmed mainly by Sarah Angliss.
She says: “Telepath can also be used to predict numbers, cute animals, cards and dates — so can even improve your love life.”
Here’s a video of Richard and his friend demonstrating it. Note how the app works even when the spectator does not say anything, which rules out voice recognition as an explanation.
I don’t know precisely how it works yet — I’ll be downloading it later — but it looks pretty amazingly cool.
It does of course require you to install an app on your iPhone, unlike WasThisYourCard.com (/plug)
