is it possible to learn the seamless t&r?

Your question is pretty vaque. Maybe you want to ask a different question like, which source to learn from etc.

You might also want to post an intro about yourself.

Seamless was discontinued by the the creator.
It was a limited run.

The effect has been discontinued, true. But if you want a review on it, I can give it to you.

It is too angle sensitive. It shows up good on palour and camera but never on a close up audience. At some point the effect requires heavy misdirection and also other aspects are not shown in the demo clip he posted on his site and Magic Video Depot.

I strongly suggest other good T&R effects like fusion, reparation, etc. but this.

Half of a magician's dream that came true, but kind of impractical.

I'm a fanatic about the one at a time restoration type of effects. In my opinion Seamless is extremely tough to pull off convincingly, especially the final piece. Handling is awkward. Still, the 3rd piece is brilliant.

I still use Hollingworth's - in my opinion the best in terms of concept, method and effect.

I don't know about Seamless but the best piece by piece T & R I've seen so far is Huron's Making Ends Meet. It's a work of art and even has an extra 'mismatch' sequence inside that makes it that much more visual. Plus it's ten times simpler than any other piece by piece restoration you've seen. I'm sure most people who have seen it live would agree with me too.

You may also want to consider JC Wagner's version of the T&R. It may not be as fanciful as reparation but it is an excellent method for the working magician. It is also virtually angle proof.

there is also an excellent method(routine) that is part of the Ben Harris book "Quirks and Quarks" it is exceptional and quite easy to master.

Hope this helps!
