Master of Chance 2.0 takes an incredible original and simply makes it easier with a more open handling.
Master of Chance is a genius effect originally by Lubor Fiedler in 1963. A triangle shaped container is presented to the spectator. Inside are 2 triangle prisms stacked on each other. The sides of the prisms have different colors and if the prisms are stacked on top of each other in the correct way the colors align on each side. However if the prisms are placed on top in any other orientation then the colors instantly become misaligned and incorrect.
The performer then covers the first prism with their hand and places it back into the container in a random unknown orientation. The spectator must now also place their prism into the container on top of the other but they have a 100% free choice in which orientation it goes.
Once the spectator places down their prism the container is lifted to show both prisms matching with colors aligning perfectly. Despite the spectator having no idea of the first prisms direction and also having a 100% free choice the result is always the same. The effect can be instantly repeated and the pieces can all be fully inspected and your hands are clean.
Assembled piece measures approx. 3" Wide x 2" High (7.5cm x 5cm)

Anthony Yap is an Australian artist with a passion for visual oddities, magical history and the esoteric arts. Influenced by a wide range of genres from mystical ancient cultures to Steampunk & Retrofuturism, Anthony’s creations are highly visual, and usually a lot more than what they seems at first glance.
Some artists naturally take to drawing, others modelling clay, for Anthony the virtual world of 3D Sculpting has been his medium of choice for over 2 decades and remained mostly contained to the virtual world until the rise of 3D Printing and additive manufacturing. Here Anthony saw an opportunity to rapidly take concepts and almost like magic to see those creations manifest over night into reality. While a big step in the right direction simply using 3D printing or CNC wasn’t enough, the result still felt unfinished and looked like a toy. Instead, a process and style was developed that uses 3D Printing & CNC as a base to start from with all of the individual pieces then undergoing a long process of hand work, assembly, hand painting & lacquer finishing to bring further quality, depth and feel to the magical creation. Through this process of mixing modern technology and classic hand crafting a unique characteristic is given to each of the items sometimes making the final piece feel as if it was just dug from an ancient tomb or discovered in the archives of some long lost traveling showman.
Due to the hand crafted nature of each of the pieces Anthony and his team can only produce a limited number of items each year with majority of the pieces going to collectors and enthusiasts from around the world.
