Same I love it, being Aussie I'd never really heard of him before until I saw him on James Corden. I so hope he come Down Under :). I'm literally addicted!
Her eyes has those round shapes. The place where the painting is has also many round shapes and huge stone pillars all over it. Derren is such a genius.
Even across the parts where he's in the museum place, the camera itself circles - amazing stuff tbf - I am fortunate I'll get to see him live in 6 days time!
genius is nothing but the art of planning ahead. i got this quote from a video i downloaded 12 years ago and watched just before this. lexx season 2 episode 19
I was in New York at the time this was uploaded, and I'm in Mexico a couple of weeks later watching it from my bedroom for the first time. I drew concentric circles, because of her eyes, and a lightbulb, and parallel lines. Amazing.
Blind people actually regularly talk about ‘watching’ a movie or ‘seeing’ a show, or went out of town to ‘see’ a friend. Just like heard of hearing/death people might say that they are ‘listing’ to you or a speech. Because you know it’s just how people say those things, using non conforming language requires a conscious effort. Most people do also listen to a movie when they are watching it. We just generally mean we have consumed it when we say that, and so the sentiment, what we actually mean is exactly the same. And it also might confuse people if you say that you listened to Derrens latest show, they might think it’s a podcast or on the wireless. That said people should actually try echolocation. It’s super cool! What he is doing in the video is active echolocation (where you actively make your own sounds) and there is also passive echolocation (where you relay on the environments own sounds). Without training you still can do more then you actually think, most seeing people just aren’t used to relaying on it or putting so much effort into it. Just from the way sound bounces around from passive echolocation in an entirely dark room with a blindfold you will probably be able to tell if you are about to walk into a wall, and be able to tell say a concrete wall from a wall covered in drapes ( like say big thick curtains). Our ears and brain is pretty great at picking up a sound landscape. That’s why those surround/3D headphone sound illusions on the internet can be so incredibly convincing. You don’t just hear a waterfall or a person talking in your headphones. You can sort of sense the shape of it and pretty exactly where it is behind you and how far away it is. It takes a lot of training like the guy in the video, but you can if you just train get this pretty astounding sense and sort of feel/sense/hear this 3D landscape around you very quickly like he does with great detail. This is not like many of the very dodgy things Derren tends to include in the shows. This is actually scientifically documented and repeatable. And can successfully be replicated in a lab environment, in a number of different way. And a relatively a common technique taught to people who are blind or have very impaired sight (but not legally blind) that wish to learn it. It takes a lot of effort, and different people lives look differently, people need different things so different people who are blind go for different solutions. Many blind people do not want or find it particularly to have a guide dog, while others find it absolutely necessary and love it for them and their life. The guy in the video is very good. He probably could bike in a new environment with quite a bit of traffic and be totally fine.
*DERREN's MICRO SMILE!* 2:04 His micro expression in the form of a smile exposes the fact that *_is_* influencing you & he has most likely figured out what the drawing is.
Discovered Derren Brown in English 111 researching a paper on Edward Bernays and propaganda in America. One of the few performers that I desperately want to see love one day. Incredible talent!
Keeping an "eye" on proceedings, immediately before the full-screen shot of Katie's eyes lit in such a way as to highlight the concentric rings...how very clever. The light they used is even circular to make the extra ring in her pupil. Not to mention the circle pattern on the railings and the circular logos on the far wall. Very clever indeed.
Yeaaa, but, you must admit if they were pulling for that they'd have already broken their set rules of not knowing themselves what was being done. I mean, Darren's ploy seemed more to be focused around the viewers at home being suggested than those who attempted to authentically remote view. Whatever the home reporting was the answer they got from those present isn't expected.
Huge fan for years. I have spent the months reading every book I can to learn the "science" behind the magic and it blows my mind how much I still don't understand. I have come to realise that knowing how you do these things is the easy part, the way you work the crowd and your showmanship in general is far beyond anything most could ever dream of achieving. You are an inspiration to me and no doubt many many others around the world.. PS: Please get down to Australia one day..
EmotionIce Because It would cost thousands of dollars for Aaron to go to the UK just to see one show, which is ridiculous when Derren could put on a show that thousands of Australians would benefit from, for minimal cost.
the thing with the remote viewing guy where he said "wet like" was just a spot of genius. he spent all of 12 seconds looking up the weather and realising this is england everything is wet
Wanted to draw a circle first, but knew it's what Derran wanted - as evident by the close up shot of her eyes with circular lights reflecting off her circular eyes.
Did anyone notice that there were a lot of circles in the background of the picture and even parts of the foreground? The yellow-orange background wall has red circles, sort of concentric, on it with pictures in them, even the zeros in the 100 are circles with pictures in them. The banister in the foreground has circles in it also.
zarkoff45 there are also pi shapes everywhere when you realize what derren is doing with suggestion...circles and pi for days haha...quite successful tho!
Good call! That must be it. He did say that he would hopefully get a more precise result than the US remote viewer, but said with confidence it would not involve anything supernatural. Also I’m rewatching right now. A box on top of a circular wooden stage with “bricks”.
I remember being 9 and drawing a house and being proper gutted it didn't work. But we were all impressed when we got our newspaper out and saw the classified ad in the paper!
So we're zoomed in on her (lovely) eyes when told to draw, and he does say "draw rings" rather than "drawings", suggesting concentric circles. He also calls the event "great big" and the chaps carrying the white case "big and strong", suggesting Stonehenge. But jeez..... I'm still miles off how this is done!
To add on to this, here is what I think explains the audiences choice, listen to 12:30 where he talks about the light in her face and then also watch at 14:24, you can clearly see there is a circle light that is lighting up her face and it his shown in her eyes. When people look at her face to get some kind of clue they see the set of concentric circles because they look at her eyes. The very long and close shot on her face, along with the music was very dramatic and it's kinda obvious now after the thought. At 14:33 it is a big closeup with her ring eyes and the words "Draw Now" are on the screen, which cues people to draw her ring eyes. That explains why some people were spot on and some werent even close, because some people picked up on the cue from the eyes. Also watch at 15:50, you heard the phrase "Big and Strong" but did you also notice the very strange way that they picked up the box? The way the two men held the boxes resembles the stone structures. But they pick up the box after the crowd that was there put their drawings in. So my only guess as to how he got some of the people in the mueseum audience to think of Stonehedge was at 14:05 when he mentions the British Isles and makes a series of remarks about locations which get smaller and smaller leading to the location of the painting, which also gets people to think about circles again. As for Katie picking Stonehedge and the circles, Stonehedge is a series of concentric circles, look where they meet at 10:10, right behind them is a bridge that looks like a piece of Stonehedge structure. Also notice how you dont get a good view of Derren's hands too much in the shot when he is explaining Katie what to do? I think he was drawing the image in the air. Also the water ripples in the river might have something to do with it. All in all, there was A LOT of work put into this and there are probably more suggestions in there.
designerstuart, "draw-rings" in an English working class pronunciation of "drawings." No posh Englishman who attended Eton or Cambridge or Oxford would be caught dead saying "draw-rings."
@@nickcarback1413 also 14:20 the way 'Draw Now' appears and fades makes the O (which is the only round letter there) draw a circle, plus in a slower motion As you say there must be a lot more also, the font in the staff's shirts was quite roundy... I might be gettin paranoid here tho
@@stonesforlife4267 Technically he wouldn't, but that doesn't mean he didn't implant the idea in her head. Also he's a magician: lying is part of his trade. If you've seen any of his other work it's completely plausible that he went above and beyond to insure Katie went home thinking of concentric circles and stonehenge. Watch the Toy Store bit or the Advertisers bit, the guy will go to insane lengths to achieve an illusion.
Very simple why 35% drew concentric circles. Darren himself says at 13:25 "we are going to focus very in on your eyes..." and if u take a look at her eyes they ARE concentric circles. Especially when her face takes up the entire screen! This IS THE POWER OF SUGGESTION, plain and simple.
Thank you for full episodes so I can watch in the USA. With James Randi old and retired, I need to watch somebody keep the rip off artist on their toes.
It took me just a couple of minutes in until I figured out what Derren wanted me to draw. LOL I thought of a circle pretty much straight away. Then I couldn't stop seeing them everywhere in the program. XD
Good catch! I can't explain why the vastly different color but I took screen prints and even the pleats in her blouse lines up in both shots. I doubt that could happen if they reshot the scene. Look again.
@Time Warp so youre saying it could happen to you ? If you were having coffee by yourself on random days outside.. that literally can happen to you? I know the hes fascinating but for a second have you thought thats its still a TV show afterall and im not disproving his other acts im only saying this particular act.. not a single skepticism hit you? And i do regard him as world best hypnotist/magician/mentalist. But come on...
When the program just started and he said for us to participate to start drawing what she painted. I drew the exact bridge they met at and even the water and trees to the exact little bit of building peeking from the top of the trees on the left side. FYI
When this started i was thinking along the lines of a boat. Starting with the triangles of the hull and sails. Then i got the idea of a window, classic rectangles. I thrn thought of the window on a boat, classic porthole, a small circle within a big circle with other circles inside the outer ring. Not concentric circles like the picture but just like the window of the box the lady was sitting in at stone henge
I started with a boat too. He starts the episode by the docks where there is a boat and a bridge with triangular designs. Then there were plenty of circles throughout the episode. Pretty good guess though with the porthole.
I would love for Derren to do something to me, as I have seen every programme and show he has done, but some of the things he does, especially hypnosis, I am a little sceptical. I would totally believe it if something like that were done to me. I love Derren Brown's work and I can't wait for his next project. The 2 shows on Netflix were brilliant!
Hypnosis seems to need willing participants. Like children being commanded into a fear state where they feel like they have to obey for self preservation. You don't think; you just follow orders. Society leaves us with a lot of anxiety and a kind of guilt. And hypnosis allows the participants to surrender control to an authority figure. Some might even slip into a dream like brain pattern, and that may be why they cannot consciously recollect the hypnotic experience. I have a feeling this is the same sort of state for music concerts, dance, sports, religion, political rallies, and self help seminars.
10:48 Asking her to change her mind a few times seems to be a phrase that he often repeats when telling people to draw things that he is later able to guess. Any ideas about why it might be important? I think it eliminates logical reasoning from the decision making process which makes it more likely that you will let your subconscious mind in which a suggestion has been planted by him to be the part of you that is making the final decision about what to draw. I am not 100% convinced by my explanation and am willing to entertain other possibilities.
Yeah it's hard to think of new ideas quickly so once you start changing from your initial thought you're more likely to go with something that has been suggested. Putting pressure on yourself to come up with something 'new' after what you first thought of is more likely to end up in some suggestion he planted.
10.37 Derren says "draw the curtians" Which resembles stonehenge. Camera zooms in to Katies eyes, Derren says "focus, draw rings". Also Derren constantly says "see". Both men removing the box of drawings also resembling stone henge. Refers to the british isle and other landmarks that have stone henge.
On second quick viewing: Circles on the wall behind the painting... circles on the metal barriers... painting wrapped in newspaper... "hidden design" and points upwards... 1st trick with box of bricks (stones)... supper zoom in on the curator's eyes (3 circles)... persisting on reading her mind which probably reinforces looking deeper into her eyes.. instructions: imagine image of British Isles (eyes?) on a sheet of paper, like a "newspaper", next image of south of England, next sheet .. (forcing the mind to adopt a birds-view image and also getting pretty close to the location of the Stonehenge) ... see through the eyes ... we flew him over... Dr. Carr: "gazing circular stones on top of each other" > DB: "this lead to Dr. Carr entering her body in an act he calls blending".. . the picture Dr Carr picks out also looks vaguely like Stonehenge ... DB: you can take any landmark in London or any historic city and you can kind of make it fit.. . ... and lots of weird words and ways to pronounce certain words but I couldn't figure out what he's trying to do
There were also concentric circles scattered all across the science museum (on railing + pictures on wall + wheels of hanging motorcycle), including the zoom in of her eyes which are obviously concentric circles.
Spoilers: 1:55 Here he says "something to rest on". An odd way to say "a flat surface" unless you are hinting at Stonehenge. When both start lifting the box, they formed a structure like Stonehenge.. then he mentions it comes crashing down.. reading too much into that? 8:10 "circular" belief. 8:52 look at with a different perspective After 12:10 we start hearing "eyes" frequently. "Eyes" and "eyes-olation tank" (duping delight on his face the first time he says that one). Throughout the video i hear the word "bearing", like to bear weight. Possible suggestion: 13:28 "We'll focus closely in on your eyes.." "..thinking of things it looks like or resembles" At about 14:10 he asks everyone to imagine the British isles. Stonehenge. As mentioned by others, he often says "draw rings" instead of drawings. I'll stop there. I think we see how this goes.
The big box with "bricks" is put on a false stage. So they used magnets to make it feel heavy and most likely reverse polarity to get it to be extra light. I saw how this trick was done in another show. The French could pick it up but the other country could not. So the didn't go to war based on the French being stronger. I wish I knew how some of the other stuff was done. Great show.
usually when i watch Derren Brown's shows and when he primes people using language it doenst work on me (english isnt my my native tongue) but it s the second time i watch this episode and the both time, i got trick to see a circle from the very start ^^ so i guess i was receptive to the visual cues used for mister Derren Brown in this one
37:39 Daniel is truly amazing! He is like the real Daredevil! I am speechless! (good thing I can wright :D) To bad, he can´t read this comment. But if someone get the chance to tell him how awesome he is, please do!
Many blind or low-vision users have screen readers, so he can probably read comments (via his computer software) just as well as anyone else. (Faster, even, my blind friends usually kicked theirs up to 4 or 5 times the speed sighted people read. They can fly through information very quickly.)
I haven't watched to the end yet so maybe there's a subliminal purpose, but the last woman to be eliminated fromthe guess who game had a pink vest in the close up then a grey vest on the far shot.
They focus in on the eyes when told to imagine what the drawing might be. This to me explains why people came up with circles. As for the Stonehenge part, i have no idea.
If you remember Derren was getting people to visualise a place, and the. Take you to the museum, if people are thinking of circles then thinking of places it might connect the two, there also might of been other things in the museum pointing people to that, and at a guess Derren has somehow planted the idea of Stonehenge into her mind before she drew
The remote viewer was such a joke lol. If I was in London, I could draw words and shapes on 100 pages too and find something to fit. I'm surprised he didn't say she was near windows, doors, and cars, lol. Funny though, he never brought up being "in" her body with her legs dangling.....hmmmm.. forgetting the misses there?
SPOILER ALERT COMMENT: Luvvin the subliminal visuals. The old USSR flag, the necklace with the circles with the big circle in the middle, the spotlights, the words '...OO' in the background.
Kind of adds to the credibility in a way, they have access to good actors and resources, but some bloke under the effects of subtle manipulation's as likely to act like a bad actor as a natural one.
Well, doing this at home on t'internet three years after it was posted and I drew....lots of circles. For some reason, wanted to turn them into oranges and draw an outside scene.
All the foreground and background at the museum are concentric circles, even the barriers, and the live people had to concentrate on the closeup of her very unusual dual concentric eyes. easy......
I'm in atlanta, GA and did not see the paper. I drew concentric circles, triangles, and diamonds. My circles had 4 columns drawn on the side. I wrote the word BIRD at an angle to the bottom right corner of the circles, exactly the same direction Katie wrote her capital letter initials. Woah.
What I drew is probably best described as "Abstract of woman ascending escalator with lens flare" The parts of the lens flare are non-concentric circles 🤷♀️
Amongst other things, his podium was a circle. And the crowd surrounded him in another circle, too. They also had a close up of her eyes (iris and pupil firm concentric circles) though tbf that was quite late in the show.
