I've recently been trying to take my PK to the next level. No longer content with merely spinning foil and paper vanes, I decided to move up to the next cliche rung of the ladder: cutlery bending. I used the method described at www.fork-you.com, the typical "PK party" setup except there was no party, just a bored insomniac. Pics of my first success are    Now, so this doesn't get moved automatically to the Psionics subforum, what have all of you been up to lately? What has been your project of most interest?

Eventually moved to psionics, for now it needs attention.
My response is.... "OMFG AMAZING YOU PWNZORZ!!1!1!!!11!!!!one!!1!!11Eleven!!!1!!11!11!11thirty-six!"
Keep up the good work, mate. surprised
I've mostly been up to random non-scientifical things. Self-discovery, energy works, psi-stuffs. And piano-ing. Yes, I'm learning piano. I learned the intro to Turning Japanese. The intro to Lateralis by Tool. The intro to Favorite Accident by MCST. And now I'm learning "Wind" by Akeboshi.

To me, it seem like the use strengh to bend the weak metal of these easily.. There might be some psi used to make it a little more bendable but in general it's just the person's strengh against weak metal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7ZaDV4lY-4Something like that somewhat more interesting to look at

ChiyuriYami To me, it seem like the use strengh to bend the weak metal of these easily..

Some of it is really strong and not easily bent, especially into the tight curly-cue that the fork was. Now, there are mentalists (read: stage mind illusionists) who bend spoons, but they are usually a very malleable metal that will bend with the slightest bit of heat. Work it for a few seconds, and pow! A bent spoon. Usually people who are truly attempting this endeavor stay away from those.

I figured I'd give the fork-mangling a try. Here're my not-so-great results.  My dad took the camera up to camp until next week, so I tried scanning it. >_o The fork itself really isn't all that nifty. I can't seem to bend them sideways. D:
