Argon by Mark Lemon

Turn a borrowed phone’s calculator into the center of a mind-reading mystery with Argon by Mark Lemon. Participants enter numbers and reach totals you reveal or predict, even when you never handle the phone. The project includes routines for borrowed phones and bonus ideas for your own iPhone.

Perform for people gathered around you, over video or voice calls, or on video and TV. In The 10K Odyssey, spectators can enter the same numbers on their own calculators and follow along to the final total.

• The Atomic Code: Reveal a total generated on a participant’s phone without peeking or handling the phone before or after; it also works on Android phones.
• The 10K Odyssey: Use audience-named numbers on a borrowed phone, with spectators following along on their own calculators.
• Bonus iPhone routines: Sum Duo, Echo Logic, and The Entropy Force add predicted totals, shared calculator sequences, and audience-entered numbers to your repertoire.
• iOS 18 project: The routines are designed to work with iOS 18, with bonus shortcut-based routines for iOS owners.
• Printed booklet and tutorials: Study the material with a printed booklet and over two hours of video tutorials, including alternative handlings, scripts, and advanced ideas from Mark Lemon.

With routines for borrowed phones, your own iPhone, and remote audiences, Argon gives you several ways to bring calculator magic into your next performance.
