I.S.P by Kaleb Wade
I.S.P. is my latest take on the ESP plot and is one of only two things I perform in casual situations. You know those awkward moments when someone asks, "Can you show me and my friends something?" But you don’t have anything on you? Because you are not wearing any clothes in public… again.
With I.S.P., in less than 30 seconds, with borrowed items, you can perform a 4-phase mind-reading routine for one, or multiple participants.
I.S.P. is an impromptu ESP style routine, aptly named Impromptu Sensory Perception, or I.S.P. for short.
In essence, it’s an evolution of my Occult project. Only now it’s been to the gym, eaten all its greens, and is stronger than ever!
The only things required are a writing implement (Sharpie, pen, pencil, blood) and eight unmarked and completely unprepared blank cards or billets. Heck, you could even do some of the routines with a torn-up napkin if you wanted to!
Each phase is more impressive than the last and cancels out the methodology of the previous phase. To conclude, two shapes are freely chosen (hands-off) from a shuffled pile while the performer looks away. Yet, you ALWAYS know both participants’ selections.
This really is the epitome of the much-loved term “Everyday Carry.”

FOREWORD by Terry Tyson
“But of all things I do not know about Kaleb, I do know that he is a clever b*stard.”
* Quote taken from Terry’s foreword.
IMPROMPTU SENSORY PERCEPTION
A 4-phase impromptu mind-reading demonstration with eight simple shapes drawn in real time.
I.S.P.
The same routine as above, but with added subtleties and alternative methods to make the demonstration seem even more impressive for everyone watching.
I.S.S.P.
A 3-phase, one-person version of I.S.P. that turns the participant into a mind reader for the final phase.
MIST
Eight hand-drawn shapes are mixed, then eliminated by a participant. Even though the participant makes ALL the decisions, the performer has predicted which two images will remain. PLUS, as an added kicker, the performer has also predicted all the participants’ previous choices with 100% accuracy.
No equivoque, hands-off, and completely self-working.
MIST-IFY
A variation on the handling for MIST. This version includes a cheeky but equally baffling ending.
ACCLAIM FOR I.S.P.
“I.S.P. by Kaleb Wade is a masterclass of how applying subtleties can elevate the experiences we create. Having seen Kaleb’s work before I had no doubt that this would be a worthwhile read and believe me it did not disappoint. If you are looking for material that you can perform at a moments notice, look no further.”
— ADAM DADSWELL
“Since the term EDC was coined, I have never seen anything more truly suited to that entire genre than I.S.P.
I.S.P.... IS.Perfect.”
— BARRY FAZACKERLEY
“I.S.P. is a beautiful way to handle the “Can you show me something?” request when you aren’t set to perform. It builds on Kaleb’s Occult, a thing of dark beauty in itself, but with traditional ESP style imagery. I am thoroughly impressed.”
— ANTHONY R. MILLER
“I loved Kaleb’s Occult, and adore ESP style routines so this is right up my alley. Packed full of subtleties with multiple layered methods cleverly woven together to create multi-phase routines that could be performed totally impromptu, or in a more formal walk-around environment….bravo!!”
— STEVE CROSS
“Hands-up, I’ve read I.S.P. a few times (as editor/proofreader) but this was my reaction after my first read through - “It’s good. Very good. ‘No point having ESP cards’ good”.
So, yes, this is GOOD. Impromptu, solid, fooling. Buy it, learn it, use it. ”
