John Cornelius, 1983
A groundbreaking electronic utility device from one of magic’s most inventive minds. The FISM Flash allows the performer to produce a brilliant burst of light from apparently empty hands—punctuating any vanish, appearance, or transposition with a startling moment of visual impact.
Compact, concealable, and instantly repeatable, Cornelius’s design represented a leap forward in practical electronic magic. Released at a time when performers were just beginning to experiment with battery-powered gimmicks, the FISM Flash captured the imagination of close-up and stage magicians alike—ushering in an era where electricity and micro-mechanics became integral to the magician’s arsenal.
Fully tested and operational. A landmark in the evolution of electronic wizardry, bridging the ingenuity of handmade apparatus with the coming age of technological illusion. Original instructions included.
