Is Distortion the Original?

I'm not sure about this, but I think Cyril took the one from 5x5 Japan (New Era Moving Pips) and adapted it so that it'll work without the box.
NO HE DIDNT THE one in five times five japan is different look at my performance of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViuheXMAXKY see its on the box Cyril is the orginal creator i already fig it out people that work at theory 11 if you have read my other post send me a message i will send you the link so you can delete the videos on youtube that reveal it there under the name djifh just an example
I had this trick months ago. well i had the four to six moving pip card. and once i saw the video it was a better version of the way i do it. I love the pip change and it gets the best reactions out of spectators. there is a four to five pip change also but it only moves 1 pip.

I couldn't imagine Wayne stealing Cyril's trick. Well, not stealing, but a little modification kind of is stealing...
How can you be so sure about that? Did you even asked Mr.Houchin?
Personally, I highly doubt it, 'cause the theory11 artists are some well-known magicians and nice guys who wouldn't "steal" tricks...
Guys,
Cyril's variation of the effect is based on the original, as credited on the Distortion DVD. We've taken every necessary step to ensure proper crediting was included.
As stated in a previous post, the origins of this particular effect go back decades. It was originally done with a jumbo card. However, Distortion is the only authorized version of the effect collaborated with the original innovator of the modern application of the effect ("Visually Yours"), Michael Ammar. In addition, as crediting is extremely important to us, all details are included in the DVD.
Hope this eases your concerns!

Shoot me the link via PM and I'll take a look.
Like stated previously, we worked side-by-side with the original innovator of the modern adaptation of the effect, which you saw Cyril perform in the clip above. There was no "stealing" of the trick. Cyril performed the modern adaptation, as popularized by Michael Ammar. We worked with Michael, Wayne, and others to release it here on video for the first time.
Does that make sense? Hope that clears things up.
Let me know if you have anymore questions I can answer guys!Shoot me the link via PM and I'll take a look.

ok check your pm in one sec
I honestly don't care if it is original or not or maybe just original but with a few tweaks from the actual effect. This is the first time I have personally ever seen somthing like this and after panic I am definetly grabbing this effect when I can.
I seriously doubt it is Cyril's own creation, hardly any of the tricks he does is stuff he creates but what other consultants or magicians create.
Taken from the product page: "There's a reason Cyril (famed Japanese magician) performed a variation of this effect on national television. Imagine being able to allow your audience to actually SEE a card visually change. Now do it."
Yeah Wayne didn't "steal" the effect at all. It doesn't even say he created it. It says featuring Wayne Houchin. Just like how David Stone didn't create "Digital Dissolve" but he's still doing the DVD.
And if you read the description on the 'Distortion' page it tells you about the issue
Many thanks
