    Cardistry

    Slow down, you're telling me that in order to determine whether Cardistry is an art or not, it has to be stripped down to its most basic form? How does that make any sense? That is like saying dancing should not be put to music, or a song be removed of vocals, or a painting should first be black...

    Cardistry

    Cardistry is an art, it is the product of human creativity, the hands, cards, and it most definitely involves emotion. Yes, performing bullet is not exactly a portrayal of emotion; however, the creation process was nothing less than a flurry of emotions. Bullet was a move created when I...

    "How did you do that?" Responses:

    I say... "I DON'T EVEN KNOW!" or "I sold my soul to the devil... and this is what I got" LAME, I make for a bad magician/comedian. :p Although I can just imagine a Mike Hankins explanation, I bet its awesome. -AJ

    Is this fan possible

    It's very possible! Here are 2 techniques: Treat the first tier vertically, the next horizontally, and the final tier vertically again. It is best to use 2-3 decks to achieve this as 1 deck is not enough for a round enough spread. Essentially, the finished product is another giant fan with an...

    Jonathan Bayme

    Without a doubt, those who have met Jonathan can all concur that he's a beast like no other. I've been very fortunate to have laid eyes on the legend and myth that was the Z-Cut. Very few have seen this rare cosmic event in person but those who have, are left in awe; myself included. He performs...

    One handed fan - Genesis

    Hey Oni, I'm not 100% certain but by the distribution of the cards in the picture, it seems like these cards are far from being tuned to doing the fan you saw on Genesis. You may have a new deck, but it must be in immaculate condition in order to be flawless. A perfectly nice round fan will...

    Thanks Inferno! Jack, sorry for the late reply but for what it's worth, they're both me, the one that's most active is the one I use the most, the other one is just idle.

    Nikon Film Festival - In The Cards : Short Film by Andrei Jikh

    Hey guys thank you so much for your comments! It was a complicated shoot! The leaning over the ledge was indeed legit, I slightly leaned over the edge and went back and when intercut with the very last shot, psychologically completed the fall which is what I was trying to aim for. I must say...

    Cardistry Dvds

    Hey SSSR, just to chime in, Genesis is far greater involved than just fanning techniques. It teaches the essentials that will help you with the plethora of other moves that are contained within the first volume. Check out Alejandro Portela's review of Genesis for the full content list. -Andrei...

    The Genesis Challenge - Essentials

    I think both ideas are great! If you want to compile a progress thread for yourself, it would be a good way to keep record of your growth and you're more than welcome to do so. The collaboration idea would be stellar, we'd need to find a designated editor who has time to put all the videos...

    Hey it's a great move and although the motion itself was very small, I feel it's an amazing piece of choreography nonetheless and worth a mention/credit! Thank you for coming up with it,

    HL Hating on TheCuso

    A few days ago, I donated to one of HL's most loyal hardcore supporters -Webghost. That money was sent through the paypal account of a member who owns that blog. In return, he thanked me by disrespecting my friends as well as myself and this was after the fact. Despite me reaching out to...

    Saturday Night Contest - Your Skills on Display

    Awesome entry guys! I liked a TON of videos. I can see the effort reflected within, some honorable mentions are: ramonfrolik post 27, wjeung21 post 33, Favio Amurrio post 44, and Cardician post 46 (although the move wasn't exactly a display, was still sweet). The winner tonight is Ryan...

    GENESIS by Andrei Jikh :: Preview Video [updated 10/23/09]

    Thanks for the kind replies guys. I really appreciate all the support and kind comments. Although I say that all the time, I don't mean it any less with each time. It seems like ages ago that I had first spoke with JB on the phone about Genesis. This is something I have looked forward to for...

    GENESIS by Andrei Jikh :: Preview Video [updated 10/23/09]

    Hey Mike, it won't have any bloopers on there unfortunately. I literally ran out of room and space. If it were a minute longer this thing would have to be two separate discs; however, I MIGHT be able to fit them into the second and third discs! :D Although there weren't very many to begin with...

    Thanks jtmorris! Wes Craun (Condition) did the music for the trailer, entirely from scratch. All the moves are taught on this DVD. It's a 4 hour instructional with 30+ moves. ALL the moves you saw in the trailer are taught on this disc in addition to much, much more. - Andrei Jikh
