ブレインマジックとは一体なんでしょうか
00:14
Brain magic to me indicates that area of magic
1
2000
2000
私の解釈では 心理的効果と
00:16
dealing with psychological and mind-reading effects.
2
4000
2000
読心術効果を扱うマジックです
00:18
So unlike traditional magic, it uses the power of words,
3
6000
4000
従来のマジックとは違って 第六感の錯覚を作りだすために
00:22
linguistic deception, non-verbal communication
4
10000
3000
ことばの力 ことば騙し 非言語コミュニケーション
00:25
and various other techniques to create the illusion of a sixth sense.
5
13000
4000
その他の様々な技術を使います
00:30
Now, I'm going to show you all how easy it is
6
18000
1000
人の知覚を操作するのは
00:31
to manipulate the human mind once you know how.
7
19000
3000
いかに簡単かをお見せします
00:34
And I want everybody downstairs also to join in with me and everybody here.
8
22000
3000
会場の皆さんも参加してください
00:37
I want everybody to put out your hands like this for me, first of all.
9
25000
3000
まず このように手を伸ばして
00:40
OK, clap them together, once.
10
28000
2000
一度 叩きましょう
00:42
OK, reverse your hands.
11
30000
2000
では 手を裏返して
00:44
Now, follow my actions exactly.
12
32000
2000
私の真似をしてください
00:46
Now about half the audience has their left hand up. Why is that?
13
34000
3000
なぜか半分の方が左手をあげてますね
00:49
OK, swap them around, put your right hand up.
14
37000
3000
右手に変えてください
00:52
OK, now, cross your hands over, so your right hand goes over,
15
40000
2000
右手を左手の上に交差させて
00:54
interlace your fingers like this,
16
42000
2000
指を絡ませます
00:56
then make sure your right thumb is outside your left thumb --
17
44000
2000
右の親指 を 左の親指の
00:58
that's very important.
18
46000
2000
外側に置きます
01:00
Yours is the other way around, so swap it around.
19
48000
2000
反対だから 裏返して
01:02
Excellent, OK. Extend your fingers like this for me.
20
50000
3000
このように指を前に伸ばして
01:05
All right. Tap them together once.
21
53000
2000
一度 両指をトンとしましょう
01:07
OK, now, if you did not allow me to deceive your minds,
22
55000
5000
もし私に騙されなかったならば
01:12
you would all be able to do this.
23
60000
2000
このように出来るはずです
01:14
(Laughter)
24
62000
6000
（笑）
01:20
So, now you can see how easy it is
25
68000
2000
やり方さえわかれば
01:22
for me to manipulate the human mind, once you know how.
26
70000
3000
人の知覚操作がどれだけ簡単か わかるでしょう
01:25
(Laughter)
27
73000
3000
（笑）
01:28
Now, I remember when I was about 15,
28
76000
2000
私は15歳の時 ライフ誌で
01:30
I read a copy of Life magazine,
29
78000
3000
あるロシア人女性の記事を読みました
01:33
which detailed a story about a 75-year-old blind Russian woman
30
81000
4000
75歳の彼女は盲目なのに 指でなぞって
01:37
who could sense printed letters --
31
85000
2000
活字が読めたそうです
01:39
there's still people trying to do it here --
32
87000
2000
まだ やってる人がいますね
01:41
(Laughter)
33
89000
2000
（笑）
01:43
-- who could sense printed letters and even sense colors, just by touch.
34
91000
3000
なぞるだけで活字や色までわかるのです
01:46
And she was completely blind.
35
94000
2000
彼女は全盲でした
01:48
She could also read the serial numbers on bills
36
96000
2000
しかも 硬い面に置いた裏返しの
01:50
when they were placed, face down, on a hard surface.
37
98000
2000
お札の番号が読めたそうです
01:52
Now, I was fascinated, but at the same time, skeptical.
38
100000
4000
私は興味がある反面 信じませんでした
01:56
How could somebody read using their fingertips?
39
104000
2000
指先で字が読めると？
01:58
You know, if you actually think about it,
40
106000
3000
考えてもみてください
02:01
if somebody is totally blind --
41
109000
2000
全盲の方です
02:03
a guy yesterday did a demonstration in one of the rooms,
42
111000
2000
目を閉じると 何かが聴こえるという
02:05
where people had to close their eyes and they could just hear things.
43
113000
3000
実演が昨日ありましたね
02:08
And it's just a really weird thing to try and figure out.
44
116000
3000
指先で読める人がいるなんて
02:11
How could somebody read using their fingertips?
45
119000
3000
考えただけで変な感じがします
02:14
Now earlier on, as part of a TV show that I have coming up on MTV,
46
122000
3000
先日 MTVの番組のために
02:17
I attempted to give a similar demonstration
47
125000
3000
「第二の視覚」と呼ばれる同様の
02:20
of what is now known as second sight.
48
128000
2000
実演をしてみました
02:22
So, let's take a look.
49
130000
2000
これを見てください
02:24
(Video) Man: There we go.
50
132000
2000
さぁ
02:26
I'm going to guide you into the car.
51
134000
2000
車へと案内します
02:28
Kathryn Thomas: (Laughter)
52
136000
1000
（笑）
02:29
Man: You're OK, keep on going.
53
137000
2000
大丈夫だから入って
02:31
KT: How are you?
54
139000
1000
お元気？
02:32
Keith Barry: Kathryn, it's Keith here. I'm going to take you to a secret location, OK?
55
140000
5000
あなたを ある場所へと連れて行きますからね
02:37
Now, Kathryn, there was no way you could see through that blindfold, at all, through all that.
56
145000
3000
目隠しで何も見えませんよね？
02:40
KT: OK, but don't say my name like that.
57
148000
2000
あまり脅かさないで
02:42
KB: No, but you're OK, yes?
58
150000
1000
大丈夫？
02:43
KT: Yes.
59
151000
1000
ええ
02:44
KB: There's no way you could have seen through it, agreed?
60
152000
1000
目隠しで何も見えませんね？
02:45
KT: No.
61
153000
1000
はい
02:46
KB: OK, I'm just going to take it off. You're OK, you're OK.
62
154000
1000
じゃあ目隠しを外すよ
02:47
Do you want to take off the other part of it?
63
155000
2000
アイマスクを外してくれる？
02:49
Go ahead and take it off, you're OK. We'll just stop for a second.
64
157000
2000
大丈夫だから外してみて
02:51
KT: I'm so afraid of what I'm going to see.
65
159000
2000
何が見えるのか怖いわ
02:53
KB: No, no, you're fine, you're fine, take it off. You're OK. You're safe.
66
161000
3000
大丈夫 怖いものは何もないよ
02:56
Have you ever heard of second sight?
67
164000
2000
第二の視覚って聞いたことある？
02:58
KT: No.
68
166000
1000
いいえ
02:59
KB: Second sight is whereby a mind-control expert
69
167000
2000
マインドコントロールの専門家が
03:01
can see through somebody else's eyes.
70
169000
3000
他人の目を通して見ることを指すんだ
03:04
And I'm going to try that right now.
71
172000
2000
私が今から試してみるよ
03:11
KT: God.
72
179000
2000
なんてこと！
03:19
KB: Are you ready?
73
187000
1000
行くよ？
03:20
Where is it? There's no way ...

109
282000
2000
ありがとう
04:56
By the way, two days ago,
110
284000
1000
余談ですが2日前に
04:57
we were going to film this
111
285000
2000
このマジックを収録するために
04:59
down there, at the race course,
112
287000
1000
レースコースにいたんです
05:00
and we got a guy into a car,
113
288000
2000
ある男性を車に乗せて
05:02
and we got a camera man in the back,
114
290000
2000
後部座席にカメラマンがいたんですが
05:04
but halfway through the drive, he told me he had a --
115
292000
2000
半分 走ったところで 彼が
05:06
I think it was a nine-millimeter or something, stuck to his leg.
116
294000
2000
足にピストルを装着してるって言うんで
05:08
So, I stopped pretty quick, and that was it.
117
296000
2000
急きょ そこで終わりにしました
05:10
So, do you believe it's possible
118
298000
2000
他人の目を通して
05:12
to see through somebody else's eyes?
119
300000
2000
見ることは可能だと思いますか？
05:14
That's the question.
120
302000
1000
そこが問題です
05:15
Now, most people here would automatically say no. OK,
121
303000
3000
大多数の方は自動的にノーと答えるでしょうが
05:18
but I want you to realize some facts.
122
306000
2000
これだけは事実です
05:20
I couldn't see through the blindfold.
123
308000
2000
目隠しは透けていなかったし
05:22
The car was not gimmicked or tricked in any way.
124
310000
3000
車に細工はされていない
05:25
The girl, I'd never met before, all right.
125
313000
3000
あの女の子とは初対面でした
05:28
So, I want you to just think about it for a moment.
126
316000
2000
ですから ちょっと考えてほしいのです
05:30
A lot of people try to come up
127
318000
2000
何が起こっていたのか論理的な説明を
05:32
with a logical solution to what just happened, all right.
128
320000
3000
探し出そうとする人は多いけれど
05:35
But because your brains are not trained in the art of deception,
129
323000
3000
皆さんの脳は騙しの技を仕込まれていないので
05:38
the solutions you come up with
130
326000
2000
皆さんの推測は
05:40
will, 99 percent of the time, be way off the mark.
131
328000
2000
99％の確率で当たらないでしょう
05:42
This is because magic is all about directing attention.
132
330000
4000
マジックとは どこに意識を誘導するか ということです
05:46
If, for instance, I didn't want you to look at my right hand,
133
334000
2000
例えば 右手を見てほしくなければ
05:48
well, then, I don't look at it.
134
336000
2000
私が見なければいいし
05:50
But if I wanted you to look at my right hand,
135
338000
2000
右手を見てほしければ
05:52
then I look at it, too. You see,
136
340000
2000
私が目を向ければいいのです
05:54
it's very, very simple, once you know how,
137
342000
2000
やり方さえわかれば非常に単純ですが
05:56
but very complicated in other ways.
138
344000
2000
さもなければ とても複雑なのです
05:58
Now, I'm going to give you some demonstrations up here, live, right now.
139
346000
2000
では ここで実演してみます
06:00
I need two people to help me out real quick.
140
348000
2000
2人 お手伝いが要るのですが
06:02
Can you come up?
141
350000
1000
あなた こちらへ来てくれる？
06:03
And let's see, down at the end, here,
142
351000
3000
そこの端に座ってる方
06:06
can you also come up, real quick?
143
354000
1000
あなたも来てくれる？
06:07
Do you mind?
144
355000
1000
迷惑？
06:08
Yes, at the end.
145
356000
1000
あなたのこと
06:09
OK, give them a round of applause as they come up.
146
357000
2000
拍手でお迎えください

You might want to use the stairs, there.

階段を使ってくださいね

Now, it's very important for everybody here to realize
149

2000
この2人とは 根回ししてないことを
06:18
I haven't set anything up with you guys.
150
366000
2000
皆さんには伝えておきます
06:20
You don't know what's about to happen. Is that agreed?
151
368000
1000
そうですよね？
06:21
OK, would you mind just standing over here for a moment?

10:40
make an upward gesture, like this,

296
703000
2000
飛行機から投げたコーラの瓶が
11:57
and it landed on the ground, and it didn't break?
297
705000

11:59
Now, see, that's because Coke bottles are solid.
298
707000

コーラの瓶は硬いからです
12:01
It's nearly impossible to break a Coke bottle.
299

305

For some magicians or mentalists,
306
726000

マジシャンや読心術者が
12:20
sometimes the spoon will bend or melt, sometimes it will not.
307
728000
4000
スプーン曲げや テーブル上の物体を動かしますが
12:24
Sometimes the object will slide across the table, sometimes it will not.
308
732000
3000
成功しないこともあります
12:27
It depends on how much energy you have that day,
309

2000
日によってエネルギーの蓄積量が
12:29
so on and so forth.
310
737000

Now, have a look at the Coke bottle.
314
743000
2000
穴が一つある普通の―
12:37
Make sure it is solid, there's only one hole, and it's a normal Coke bottle.
315
745000
3000
硬いコーラの瓶だと確認してください
12:40
And you can whack it against the table, if you want.
316
748000
2000
叩きつけてもいいですよ
12:42
Be careful.
317
750000
2000
気をつけてね
12:44
Even though it's solid, I'm standing away.
318
752000
2000
念のため ちょっと離れます
12:46
OK, I want you to pinch right here with two fingers and your thumb.
319

ここを つまんでください
12:49
Excellent.
320

12:52
I want you to examine the shard of glass.
322
760000

よく観察してみてください
12:54
Be careful, because it is sharp. Just hold on to it for a moment.
323
762000
2000
危ないので気をつけて
12:56
Now, hold it out here.
324
764000
2000
ここで持ってて
12:58
I want you to imagine, right now,

2000
さぁ 別れた昔の恋人を
13:00
a broken relationship from many years ago.
326
768000

327

being imparted into the broken piece of glass,
329

その男の代わりとなるガラス片に
13:10
which will represent him, OK.
330
778000

エネルギーを入れていきます
13:12
But I want you to take this very seriously.
331
780000
2000
これは真面目にやってくださいね
13:14
Stare at the glass, ignore everybody right here.
332
782000
2000
ガラスを見つめて 周囲は気にせずに
13:16
In a moment, you'll feel a certain sensation, OK,
333
784000

334
787000
2000
その感覚を感じたら
13:21
I want you to drop the piece of glass into the bottle.
335
789000

そのガラスを瓶の中へ落してください

13:31
OK, and when you feel the sensation --
339
799000
2000
感覚を感じたら
13:33
it might take a while -- drop it into the glass.
340
801000

ガラス片を瓶の中へ落してください
13:48
OK, drop it in.
341
816000
1000
落していいですよ
13:50
Now, imagine all that negative energy in there.
342
818000
2000
瓶の中に入った否定的エネルギー―
13:52
Imagine his name and imagine him inside the glass.
343
820000
2000
彼の名前 彼自身を思い出して
13:54
And I want you to release that negative energy
344
822000
2000
瓶を横に振りながら
13:56
by shaking it from side to side.
345
824000

否定的エネルギーを解放してください
13:59
(Laughter)

彼の名前を考えてください
14:13
Have you got his name?
351
841000

いいですか？
14:14
OK, think of how many letters in the title of his name.
352

彼の名前は何文字でしょう
14:16
Think about how many letters in the title.
353

14:18
There's five letters in the title.
354
846000
2000
５文字ですね
14:20
You didn't react to that, so it's four letters in the title.
355
848000
2000
反応しなかったから４文字だ
14:22
Think of one of the letters in the title.
356

その中の１文字を考えて
14:23
Think of one of the letters.
357
851000

１文字を考えて
14:24
There's a K in his name, there is a K.
358
852000
2000
彼の名前にはKが入ってる
14:26
See the way I knew that, because my name starts with a K also,
359
854000
2000
私の名前もKで始まるからわかるんだ
14:28
but his name doesn't start with a K, it starts with an M.
360
856000
2000

Tell Mike I said hello, the next time you see him.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Keith Barry - MagicianThink of Keith Barry as a hacker of the human brain -- writing routines that exploit its bugs and loopholes, and offering a revealing look at the software between our ears.
Why you should listen
As Arthur C. Clarke told us, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." So think of Keith Barry as a technologist, an elite software engineer of the human brain. Witty and direct, he celebrates human cleverness even while he's hacking it.
Barry's repertoire ranges from outrageous stunts -- driving a car at full speed blindfolded -- to mind control, including hypnosis and mindreading. The Irish magician's relaxed style has made him an audience favorite worldwide, both in live shows and on his European television series, Close Encounters with Keith Barry, which aired in 28 countries. He's had specials on MTV and CBS, and tried his hand at acting as a murder suspect on CSI: Miami. There are rumors of a Las Vegas residency later in 2008.
