Good morning. So magic is an excellent way for staying ahead of the reality curve, to make possible today what science will make a reality tomorrow. As a cyber-magician, I combine elements of illusion and science to give us a feel of how future technologies might be experienced.
早安。所以魔術是個讓你超越現實的完美方式，讓科學將未來才會實現的事，在今日就變得可能。身為一名高科技魔術師，我結合了幻覺和科學的元素，帶給大家一種體驗未來科技的感受。
You've probably all heard of Google's Project Glass. It's new technology. You look through them, and the world you see is augmented with data: names of places, monuments, buildings, maybe one day even the names of the strangers that pass you on the streets. So these are my illusion glasses. They're a little bigger. They're a prototype. And when you look through them, you get a glimpse into the mind of the cyber-illusionist. Let me show you what I mean.
你們可能都聽過Google的Project Glass。那是新科技。透過它們，你所看到的世界是加上資料的：地名、紀念館、建築的名稱，甚至可能有天在街上與你擦肩而過的陌生人都會有名字。所以這是我的幻覺眼鏡。它大了一點。它是個原型樣品。當你從眼鏡望出去，你會一瞥高科技幻術家的心思。我來告訴你我是什麼意思。
All we need is a playing card. Any card will do. Like this. And let me mark it so we can recognize it when we see it again. Alright, a very significant mark. And let's put it back into the deck, somewhere in the middle, and let's get started.
我們所需要的是一副撲克牌。任何牌都可以。像這個。讓我做上記號，這樣當我們再次看到時就能認出它。好的，非常明顯的記號。把它放回牌堆，在中間的某處，然後我們開始吧。
System ready. Acquiring image.
系統就緒。讀取圖像。
For those of you who don't play cards, a deck of cards is made up of four different suits: hearts, clubs, diamonds and spades. The cards are amongst the oldest of symbols, and have been interpreted in many different ways. Now, some say that the four suits represent the four seasons. There's spring, summer, autumn and...
給那些不玩牌的人，一副牌由四種不同的花色組成：紅心、梅花、方塊和黑桃。這些牌在最古老的符號之中，被以許多不同的方式解讀。現在，有些人說這四個花色代表四季。有春、夏、秋還有...
My favorite season is winter. Well yeah, mine too. Winter is like magic. It's a time of change, when warmth turns to cold, water turns to snow, and then it all disappears. There are thirteen cards in each suit.
我最喜歡的季節是冬天。嗯對，我也是。冬天就像魔法。是改變的時刻，當溫暖轉變為寒冷，水變成雪，然後全部消失。每個花色中有十三張牌。
Each card represents a phase of the thirteen lunar cycles.
每張牌代表十三個月亮週期中的一個階段。
So over here is low tide, and over here is high tide, and in the middle is the moon.
所以在這裡是退潮，那裡是漲潮，在中間的是月亮。
The moon is one of the most potent symbols of magic.
月亮是最具影響力的魔法符號之一。
There are two colors in a deck of cards. There is the color red and the color black, representing the constant change from day to night.
一副牌中有兩種顏色。有紅色和黑色，代表白天黑夜的持續變化。
Marco, I did not know you could do that.
Marco，我還不知道你會這招。
And is it a coincidence that there are fifty-two cards in a deck of cards, just as there are fifty-two weeks in a year?
一副牌中有五十二張牌，就像是一年中有五十二周，這是個巧合嗎？
If you total all the spots on a deck of cards, the result is three hundred and sixty-five.
如果你將一副牌裡的所有點數加總，結果是三百六十五。
Oh, three hundred and sixty-five, the number of days in a year, the number of days between each birthday. Make a wish.
喔，三百六十五，一年的天數，每次生日之間的天數。許個願吧。
Don't tell, or it won't come true.
別說出來，不然就不會成真了。
Well, as a matter of fact, it was on my sixth birthday that I received my first deck of cards, and ever since that day, I have traveled around the world performing magic for boys and girls, men and women, husbands and wives, even kings and queens.
嗯，事實上。我在六歲生日的時候收到我第一副撲克牌，自從那天起，我就環遊世界表演魔術給男孩女孩、男人女人、丈夫妻子，甚至是國王和皇后看。
And who are these?
那這些是誰？
Ah, mischief-makers. Watch. Wake up.
喔，小丑。看好。醒醒。
Whoa. Are you ready for your party piece? Ready! Let me see what you've got.
嘩。準備好你的派對表演了嗎？準備好了!讓我看看你的本事。
Presenting my pogo stick. Uh...watch out. Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh!
表演我的彈簧單高蹺。嗯...看著。嘩，嘩，嘩，喔!
But today, I am performing for a different kind of audience. I'm performing for you.
但今天，我要表演給不同類型的觀眾看。我要表演給你看。
Signed card detected.
偵測到有記號的牌卡。
Well, sometimes people ask me, "How do you become a magician? Is it a nine to five job?" Of course not! You've got to practice twenty-four seven. I don't literally mean twenty-four hours, seven days a week. Twenty-four seven is a little bit of an exaggeration, but it does take practice. Now, some people will say, "Well, magic, that must be the work of some evil supernatural force."
這個嘛，有時人們問我：「你如何成為一名魔術師的？這是份朝九晚五的工作嗎？」當然不是!你必須二十四小時都要練習。我指的並不是字面上的一天二十四小時，一週七天。二十四小時是有點太誇大了，但它的確需要練習。現在，有些人會說：「嗯，魔術，那必定是一些邪惡超自然力量的產物。」
Well, to this, I just say, no no. Actually, in German, it's "nein nein." Uh... Magic isn't that intense. I have to warn you, though, if you ever play with someone who deals cards like this, don't play for money.
嗯，對於這個，我只說，不不。事實上，在德國，是叫「nein nein」。啊...魔術並沒有那麼極端。雖然如此，我還是必須要警告你，如果你曾跟一個像這樣發牌的人玩牌，不要賭錢。
Why not? That's a very good hand. The odds of getting it are 4,165 to one.
為何不？那手牌非常好。得到這手牌的機率是4165分之一。
Yeah, but I guess my hand is better. We beat the odds.
對，但我猜我這手牌更好。我們勝過機率。
I think you got your birthday wish.
我想你的生日願望實現了。
And that actually leaves me with the last, and most important card of all: the one with this very significant mark on it. And unlike anything else we've just seen, virtual or not. Signed card detected. This is without a question the real thing. Bye bye. Thank you.
而那實際上留給我最後一張、而且是所有牌卡中最重要的一張：有著非常醒目記號的這張牌。而且不像是任何我們剛剛才見到，虛擬或非虛擬的東西。女聲：偵測到有記號的牌卡。這無庸置疑地就是事實。再見。謝謝你們。
Thank you very much.
非常謝謝你們。
