Close-up magic with iPad, the new iPhone Duo and AI effects: Christoph Wilke performs live and up close among your guests – at the table, in the foyer and at the get-together.
What is close-up magic with AI?
Close-up magic – also known as walk-around or table magic – happens just inches from your guests’ eyes. Christoph moves from group to group with short, astonishing routines. No cards, no coins: he works with the devices your guests carry every day.
The magic doesn’t happen on a distant stage, but right in your guests’ hands. That is exactly what makes it so hard to explain – and so easy to retell.
Perfect for these occasions
Close-up works wherever guests should get talking: the magic runs alongside your programme and brings your brand personally to every guest.
After the stage show, guests meet the evening’s show act up close.
A show moment turns into a personal encounter – right at the table, in a small circle.Sparks conversations between guests who have only just met.

Stage show plus close-up
Close-up works best after the stage show: first, every guest sees Christoph as the show act on stage – then he joins them at their tables, live and up close, right in their hands. And the stage allows effects close-up can’t, such as pouring a beer straight out of an iPad.

Close-up FAQ
The key answers about close-up magic with AI at your corporate event.
The stage show is a set programme item for all guests at once. Close-up happens in small groups right among your guests and runs alongside the event.
That depends on the duration and the size of the audience. Together we always find a way for every guest to experience a magic moment.
