Happy Out Rings: ancient rings series by Ken Muller

A blending of Celtic myth, Irish charm/blarney and innovative effects.

This is a unique Linking Rings routine designed for a small venue or table-hopping where the audience is often unknown. While it can be a stand-alone presentation, it can easily compliment your favorite Ninja, O'Ring, Melero, 4X4 rings or others routine with 4-5" rings. What makes this different?

• it uses a three-ring chain, the imagined fourth is for Celtic Myth story and misdirection
• the actions are visual aids for an intriguing story as opposed to a skill demonstration or flurry of link/unlinking artistry
• employs Ends Myth/Loop Magic charm with ring on rope effects intermixed with linkings
• uses Reverse Rings Mystique, GapLess Techniques, and WebRing Subtlety
• it plays on well-known Irish traits and foibles
• Ring Chains are passed hand-to-hand with all rings completely visible (no finger mask)
• all of the rings and cord are placed in spectator hands
• many moves are different from the traditional approaches, yet establish patterns useful in traditional other routines
• you can be in overture/prelude mode and stop, shift or branch as needed
• it can enhance magic appreciation for later effects including a more standard Linking Rings routine, or serve as acquitment for the one presented before
