How does the “liquid to silk” magic trick work?

Question

Here is a YouTube video for reference which shows the trick itself, but does not explain how the trick is done.

I’ve searched Google (which is how I found the video above) but all I can find are videos of people doing the trick, or magic websites where you can buy a kit to do the trick, but no explanation on how it’s done.

Answer 1

That glass has two chambers. He pours the liquid into the chamber facing the viewer.
At the 25s mark, you can see him fixing a lid on to the glass before flipping it (note HOW he flips the glass).
He then pulls the silk from the (now) back of the glass.
