I'm with Essa. I don't get it. It's just another bunch of hype words and ad-talk. Hey, it could be a unique piece of visual magic, but I simply can't say based on this video. They should follow the famous writing adage. "Show! Don't Tell."
If you fell for Real Secrets, then certainly you'll fall for this. Shell out your money for something that you have no idea what it is...That's the magic business model these days.
Magic teaser trailers are about the dumbest thing in the world. Unless there's someone whose name and previous work you deem beyond reproach, then a trailer that shows nothing is just pointless. Helder Guimaraes did the same thing for the Ontology Project, but at least that had the benefit of being shot amazingly well and having a song I really liked playing over it. I think Guimaraes has a reputation for creating solid magic, I admit to not knowing anything of Nefesch so can't make a judgement call on whether his name is enough. The number of people I would give that implicit trust to is very very small inded.
