Magnificent sun, her magnificent sun. This is the cafe area. This is the place where I'll work
It's in the meditation center. Like I said, the cafe is not open at the moment
This is the lounge including that room in there, that's the lounge too
Magnificent sun, don't know if you can see it
But over there is a farm for some is a field for some sheep
Let me give you a tour while I'm here. I think I was going to go for a walk anyway
The time is 8 25 a.m
Cafe area over here. This is where I spend most of my time making coffees
Got a grand selection of teas
Hot water machine all our stuffs in here
Imagine this to be full including the other lounge. This is the view I get
Just watching people serving people
That's the shop over there
And that's the way out
See the kitchen over there. That's the kitchen
quite small quite small
We have residents living in this area. So
Everyone's just about waking up right now
I think I want to go for a walk. Oh, let's see
Drinks
Private no entry just my type of tea
David Cameron
I just I just don't want to have this
No
Here here here the problem
And it's gonna take one hour
Take mine
Oh
For you I want to try and be as brisk as possible four things on the hand
This
One down three to go
Let's try this one right before your very eyes. Let's do this
Well, let's do two aces at once. Yeah, we are hopefully the final two aces sent to Kings
now just a moment ago you saw the four Kings are under your hands and
Just right now you saw me do it briskly
Transforming the aces to Kings one by one
Might be a whimsical question to us. Do you believe in magic?
Well, I don't know if you do but hey
It's time about the hands of time because as you can see
I have all four aces under my control and if you lift up your hands if you lift up your hands
You'll find that the Kings have never left it's crazy. That is the mystery
And the Kings look at this shit
Look at this
Marco you need to wake up we need to go outside and play
You see this
Good morning, I can bitch close the door. I'm trying to get out and got the shoes for it and it's snowing as hell
That's good, man
Hey wish you all was here
We can make some snowmen have a snowball fight
Oh well love you like winter
Within the mists that shrouds me rain that reflects me
I am free in your cold mystique
Ranger Jin Lee and Ranger Scarle over there. We're reporting today's weather is fucked
The motorway has been desolated
Grandmas and grannies will stay inside no coffee for the children today
Not even ice cream snowmen on a wayward side streets getting bussed up by the weather
Snow is getting heavier by the moment on a long road like this
Three things are missing
One
A good whiskey
Two
A good pipe
A cigar
Three
People like to see good things twice. I'll show you again
I'll give you the option fast or slow Nikki
Oh slow
Do a slow
I can't see how this does
How you do this
Let's do these two rings instead because four rings is quite confusing
So with two I want to try to achieve the beauty and simplicity
I wash the bottom ring
It is a mystery it's unbelievable
The only way to get them off is by force or using a pro scissors
But give me your right hand
Like this
Right hand
You're getting confused
To get it off all I have to do is this
And it's done
Well done
Thank you
Panoramic views man
Look at this
Real snow
Absolutely wonderful
Snow, mountain, ice
Silence as far as I can see
Well as far as I can see
If only it was easier for all of us
To be able to maintain our spirit of magic
Our belief in magic
Also our capabilities to be amazed
Even for me
I must exercise it daily
This spirit of magic
Otherwise I'll lose it
I hate to think what my audiences go through
In order to experience the capabilities to be amazed
My audiences who are not used to exercising the spirit of magic
But you know
Behind the fog
Behind all the mists
The spirit of magic
It is there
Just that in some of us it comes stronger
In some of us it is weaker
But I know it's there
All we have to do
Is find it
Thank you each of us because it's very bad for your health
But if you want it to, it's on your table
Not develop, I'm sorry
Enslaved
Not develop
Separate
Not develop
What do you need to learn?
The rest is up here
I have a friend that also has some photography
Always tell me a thing, it's three things
Light, I think it is one of them
The light is the most important element of all
However from a technical point of view
Aperture
Shutter speed
And light sensitivity
ISO
One, two, three, four, five, six
Seven, eight, nine, ten
11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20
21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27
Very good
Checking
It's not chocolate or anything
Then you're playing
Yes, I see you
I see you, I see you
One, two
I don't know if you heard
So, let's go
I think that Mike is going to have fun with this camera on the ship
So far
Then
Two
So far
There it is, and look
No, for the sake
Mike took it all
You don't have to be a girl
By hand
That's why he called me
Let's go with the first one
I don't know
And over there you were sitting down
And you were sitting in the middle
And you were sitting in the corner
It's so good that we finish it
With the light and everything
That's the end
Yeah
It's yours
Yours or yours
It's okay, okay
With most
No
It doesn't matter where it's poker
Blackjack
Once you put your money on the table
In the machine
It's not on the floor
Down to my last 50
My last 50
I couldn't believe it
The machine started shaking
My vibration
I couldn't believe it
Jackpot
In the machine
That you are going to see
There is a photo of René
With Darwin
I came to buy
I don't know
What time do you want?
If you want to sleep more
If you don't want to sleep more
What's the agenda for tomorrow?
Tomorrow
To get to Buenos Aires
And finally some tourism to you to see
To get
We first get to Buenos Aires
Do you have practice?
Yes
Sound system and things like that
I have never worked with a sound system
I mean I will be there too but
It's easy for me to put on the show
And be cocky
And be flooded with a cocky feeling
And then feel like pretty cool
Or I can
Look at all kinds of funny things
I mean blend them up
Or I can show you some really fancy movement
But
To express oneself honestly
Not lying to myself
And to express myself honestly
That
My friend is
Very hard to do
And you have to train
You have to keep your knees like this
So that when you want it, it's there
When you want to move, you're moving
This is René's mother phone
The rest of it
We might have put too much water
As you can see it's a little bit
Just flip it
That
Of course
Yeah
As you can see it's a little bit
Yeah
Okay
Thank you father
For the bread on this table
Or say it in Russian
No, it's in Russian, yes
Well, we don't
We don't usually pray
Before lunch
But you know
Thank you father
You were
A lot of no peace of the way
Hey
When did you come back?
You're doing
Like you're a magician
You know you should be agile
Isn't there a kind of championship board
As well?
Ah, that's a
Kind of
That's the jingle of
a story of the German days.
It's not a war.
Okay.
There are some other monkeys that for sure do wars.
Is there?
Over...
You can see there are war...
depends on the situation.
Well, I guess...
Over resources, right?
There are many groups that they can find each other in territory borders
because they have territories.
They need to let patriots.
Wow.
You know?
Yeah, yeah.
They surround the border.
Yeah.
So when they find each other, they kind of fight.
Yeah.
But bonobos, for example, you can mix the groups and they have sex between them.
It's a party.
Welcome to the bonobos lesson today.
We're going to learn about how the bonobos explore the genital zone.
Okay.
They do it very often.
They explore with the babies, for example, because they have sex with babies.
It's very weird, but Jin likes it because it's very similar to...
They really have sex with the babies because they're going to have sex with when they're older.
So they have to train them to explore the genital zone every time.
They have sex every time.
It doesn't matter the reason why they do it.
They always do it because they need to show Jin how to have sex.
I guess it's just not pretty close to a picture.
I tried with him the magic trick in Spanish.
So, here now.
They shuffle these cards thoughtfully.
And they stand out.
They're nice.
Thank you.
Now, I'm going to open the cards.
And you're going to choose one card out of it.
Now you have to see it.
And please don't show it to me because the goal of this trick is that I know which card you chose.
Okay?
Can you put it on top, please?
Thank you.
So now, I haven't seen the card.
You're aware of it now.
So can you please cut the card?
Very nice.
So I'm going to put here the card so that we know where you cut.
Fuck, I think I did it wrong.
No!
So, during my practice sessions, this is what I do to get the fingers up.
You see?
This is called manual dexterity.
Okay.
Since we were dealing with numbers just now, I want to take the same concept of card control
and bring it to another stage.
Okay?
Let's see how we do this.
Marvin.
Very good.
I want you to come over and cut some cards or you can lift up a small bunch, a big bunch.
Because we're not dealing with numbers, you can do as much as you want.
Take the card.
Hold it to your chest.
Very good.
Now I just want you to look at the card so only you can see and remember the card.
The name.
Remember the card, the name.
Okay.
Do what I do.
Bring your face down like this.
Okay.
Take some cards from the bottom and then put it on top.
So basically now you've buried your card, right?
Lift some cards up here.
No, no, no.
Lift some cards up here and now put this inside.
Put that on top.
So basically you've buried your card twice now, right?
Now the only way I can find your card is by looking at the card's face up
but that'll be cheating.
But what we can tell by the principle of estimation is that his card is somewhere in the bottom
lower region.
Because we're not dealing with the number, we're dealing with the location of your playing
card.
Now do I know what your card is?
No, right?
For the first time I will try to cut to his card the location.
But before I do that, tell me what your card was.
It was Nine of Spades.
The Nine of Spades.
This one?
No.
This one?
Nine of Spades.
It's the same principle as before.
The first one was estimation with numbers.
The second was the location.
But however, let's try to bring this whole concept full circle.
Blow it totally out of proportions, okay?
Sophie, could you do me a favor?
Of course.
Could you cut, make a cut for me?
Okay.
Yeah.
Very good.
I will mark the location of what you've got.
Now let's recap.
The first thing we did was estimation by numbers.
The second thing we did was estimation by location.
These have a similar thing.
We were using bunches of cards.
But what if we were not using bunches of cards but instead focusing on one single playing
card instead?
That would be very, very difficult because now we are manipulating one card out of
fifty-two.
That is very difficult.
So first, I will have you see what card you cut to.
The card you have a look.
Yes, please.
Yes, please, yeah.
Have a look.
You can show the people there if you want, just to be sure.
Okay.
Pull it back anywhere you want.
Now if you notice the first two times when the cards were returned, nothing was done
to it.
Let's blow this out proportion.
Could you shuffle the cards for me?
As long as it's face down, of course.
Now if you observe the way she's shuffling, this is the normal way to shuffle.
Now what I'm looking for is how she shuffles and how many times she shuffles.
So she's done about four shuffles right now, very thorough.
Not even I know where the card is.
I don't think even she knows.
I have absolutely no idea.
If you have no idea, how do I know, right?
Can I ask you to shuffle as well?
Now this is totally crazy.
This is nuts.
Shuffle the cards.
Like so many shuffles.
Hey, don't worry, we're back.
And whenever you feel like you've finished, you're all back.
Okay.
So we are totally playing blind now because now the cards were shuffled twice.
And we are now dealing with the thickness of one single playing card.
That's our 52.
Now how long would you think it would take for me to find your card?
How long?
How long, yeah.
Not more than five seconds.
You have such belief in me, brother.
Okay, since you've done about four shuffles and you've done about two shuffles each,
I will try to reverse the shuffles one by one.
But I know a shortcut, so I don't have to do about six shuffles.
So here's one, two.
Okay, I'm going to commit here.
I think I'm going to do one more.
Okay, let's see.
Okay, I think I've got your card here.
For the first time, what was your playing card?
Oh my God.
It was your rate?
Nine of...
Carrot?
Carrot.
Nine of Carrots.
Nine of Diamonds.
One card out of 52.
This is what I'm going to commit to.
The Nine of Carrots.
How would you feel if this is the Nine of Diamonds?
Confused.
Confused?
Let's see, let's get confused then.
You know what, do me the honest.
Wow.
Thank you very much.
You know, playing cards have a life of their own.
You know what?
Could you sign this card for me?
Just sign your name all along the card please.
Yes, thank you.
It will come apparent in a minute.
Playing cards have a life of their own.
To a normal person, this just looks like pieces of paper.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
Pieces of paper with different colours and symbols and things, right?
But to me, every single time I shuffle the cards,
it just feels like they are talking to me.
You know, the cards have a language.
I don't know if you understand when I tell you this,
but it feels really alive in my hands.
Like someone who plays an instrument,
they say that the guitar almost sings,
or it can speak to me and knows the emotions, you know?
Since we have...
Anastasia.
Anastasia?
Yeah.
I know a good singer, Anastasia.
Is it killing me softly?
Is it Anastasia?
No idea.
That's not the sound.
Since we have Anastasia's Three of Diamonds,
now, because it has your signature,
we can confirm that this is the only Three of Diamonds
with your signature on there, right?
There can't be another one.
Playing cards are like people.
They are alive.
When I say I cut the cards and complete them,
like this, I do neither one.
When I say I cut the cards and complete them,
nothing happens.
I always have the Three.
Even if I do it sincerely, with total honesty,
I don't know what happens,
because the Three is always there,
and it's like the cards have a life of their own.
They want to do their own thing, you see?
And if the cards say they want to do that,
hey, who am I to say no, you know?
Which reminds me, as I was saying,
cards are like people.
People, you cannot force them to be who they are
or what you want them to be.
They are who they are, right?
Playing cards remind me that everyone is different.
Everyone has a story,
and everyone's story must be found.
Well, since we have the Three of Diamonds,
hey, let's try something here.
Three of Diamonds goes over here,
or maybe I put the Three of Diamonds here.
You see that? Boom.
And then the rest on top.
Or perhaps you already know what's going to happen.
Well, the Three of Diamonds is still here.
Hey, what if we place the Three of Diamonds here
and then the rest on top?
Well, I don't know.
Maybe perhaps you already know
that the Three of Diamonds is still here.
And we can confirm that this is the only one, right?
Stay with me now.
Since we have the Three of Diamonds,
let's try to give this whole,
I call it a diversion,
a dignified ending.
Marenka, are you good at shuffling?
Yeah.
Can you shuffle these cards for me?
Yes, please.
But face down, just in case I don't.
Face down, please.
Now, to have control of one playing card,
that is very difficult,
but now the cards are in her hands.
Damn.
Just to confirm,
her card is not on top.
Also, her card is not on bottom.
Damn, this is messed up.
So, of course, your card is somewhere in the centre here.
OK, or somewhere.
My friend, can you give me a number between,
let's say, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Give me a number.
Nine.
Right.
Nine.
Yeah, nine.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Seven.
Eight.
Everyone has a destiny.
Also, I like to believe.
And because everyone also has a story,
destiny and the person's story ties real close,
real close to our lives.
And this short story I'm going to tell you right now
is called Dool of the West.
Set in the American Wild Wests
where there's no law,
where anything goes.
And it's so free over there, you know?
And the story goes like this.
Legend has it in the Wild West,
on a sinister night
where the moon appeared crimson red.
A dool was destined between two individuals.
The first was a revolver
and the second, a pack of playing cards.
In reality, it was between a gunslinger from the Wild Wests
and a gambler.
The gunslinger, knowing that he cannot afford enemies in life,
confronted the gambler because he heard
he was a legendary cheater.
He confronted the gambler and said,
they call me the fastest gun alive in the Wild West.
So fast that I can shoot you three times
before you even notice what hit you.
And for the kill shot,
I'll land it right where your heart is
if I wanted you dead.
And the gambler ever so coolly responded,
my friend, I don't gamble with my life
because I love it too much.
And besides, there's better ways to play this game of life,
you know?
And I only play to win.
But on this night, Friday the 13th,
I think it's a very peculiar and special night.
And so we can change the four bullets of your gun
that you wanted to use to kill me to these four aces.
How about that?
Could you please sign your name on this ace for me?
Thank you very much.
Very important.
Because I won the signature of the most famous gunslinger
of the Wild West.
Thank you.
Here's what I propose.
If you can detect whenever I cheat and deal the aces
from the bottom, then tonight symbolically
I will be the dead man.
Nobody has to die.
But if you cannot detect when I cheat and deal the aces
from the bottom, then you must promise me
you from now on will live an honest life.
Can you do that for me?
Yes.
And so the gambler ever so slowly
started dealing cards from the top in this fashion.
Hold it, said the gunslinger.
Man, I saw you cheat.
And the gambler ever so coolly responded,
it's been of no use that you saw me
dealing the aces from the bottom.
Do you know why?
Because you've already missed the three aces
that I had the already.
Maybe this game has made you nervous,
or perhaps you already know
that you will be losing to this game tonight.
But since you've signed your name on the final ace
it's impossible to run away.
And so legend has it that in this way
a duel was settled in the Wild West
in the land of the free
between the gunslinger and the gambler.
Thank you very much.
