I'm going to break this up so my response is more clear.
I know I know.. "Rules of magic" but I have strong interest in sharing new ideas. I really can't imagine myself teaching another how to perform or include subtleties with an idea because I think that the magician should adapt his own style and performance to an effect and what a great way to inspire that by selling or if not giving away a seed that grows into your own.
This isn't even about subtleties yet. This is about actually fully developing something before selling it.
I would enjoy it very much if other magicians used some of my secrets and put there own spin without even being told what to do but only given the secret and where they would take it.
If someone is buying something from you, they deserve the respect of getting a finished product. Not something that's not been properly real-world tested. Would you even consider buying a car that someone knocked together in their garage and took for one three minute drive? Who knows what problems could arise when it's used regularly?
I know my ideas are ready to spread when I put plenty of thought and practice by going over the routine over n over by myself, then take it out and use it. Today was my first day out with this particular trick and it went amazing I now performed it 5 times and they all went fantastic so it inspires me more to want to share this pronto! Get it out there and let it fly.
Justin Miller worked on Silver Dream for about ten years before it was ready to release. Lee Asher worked on Thunderbird for a year before he thought it was ready to be performed, let alone released. Teller worked on the 'Red Ball and Thread' trick for how many years before he even showed it to another person?
Your idea is just that. An idea. It's not a product yet.
I don't want to be known as a go by the rules kinda magician I'm an individual who takes pride in my actions.
No worries there. You'll be known as the guy that tries to sell half tested ideas instead of actual tricks or products.
Plus I said maybe because I'm not to inclined on marketing I just want other magicians to spread illusions of all sorts and not care so much about money or standard views I've always been more infatuated with making an idea and lnowing it works, then watch them come to life and use it then to entertain people plus much much more. If the idea works who cares if I just started performing it?
Because if you haven't performed it at least a hundred times, you have little to no idea what can possibly go wrong with it. You have no concept of outs. Probably little to no idea of a real presentation of it. You have no idea of the limitations or possibilities. Basically, you know next to nothing about the idea other than it exists and it can work.
I know it's killer and want to share it, what others do with it is entirely up to them. Anyway what do you think about the trick? Is it something you would see yourself dabbling with? Thanks
How do you know it's killer? You've used it 5 times. Statistically that's not even a blip yet.
I do think it's quite an interesting idea and I could see myself developing things with it. Using it for a card trick is, in my mind, one of the least powerful things that could be done with it, though. Cards are trivial. Why not do something powerful? Something meaningful? You've got a great idea. Don't sell it short.
