Is this an original video or a piece from another performer? It was difficult to tell, as the quality and production of the video was done extremely well. Let me know either way. Thanks for your patience!

There were so many amazing submissions - that we decided to choose two winners for this one. The winner in the 'magic' category was magicman1212 for his submission here. Great performances. We could tell you were having fun. Our winner in the 'cardistry' category is RyanOchs for his...

Amazing submissions guys! Just a note that our team will be reviewing all entries over the next 12 hours, and will announce a winner tomorrow (Monday) morning at 11:00am EST. Thanks again to all who participated.

Anyone else see the irony in this thread? ;) We'll definitely take this into consideration, Chris. In the future, feel free to shoot me a PM with any comments, concerns, and/or suggestions. Appreciate it guys!

Perhaps 'copyrighted' wasn't the correct terminology here (and you would know better than I). Just edited my post so it reads 'protected'. To my knowledge, there are a number of ways you can 'protect' a series of moves that achieve a desired outcome - in this case, the exact methodology behind...

Not to stray too far off topic here, but this is a common misconception in magic (as well as several other artistic fields). Ideas can most certainly be protected - via intellectual property rights: Intellectual property (IP) are legal property rights over creations of the mind, both artistic...

Mitchell, I agree completely. As magicians, it's obviously extremely difficult to view an effect without your creativity engine revving up. But a line is crossed when you repeatedly view a video demo for the sole purpose of figuring out the methodology behind an effect - so you can add it to...

Always. Doug and I were simply posting our thoughts on the topic. ;) Looking forward to hearing your own.

Your missing the point - would you have developed the idea, concept, and / or effect on your own? Probably not. Just because you know the working behind an effect doesn't give you the right to perform it. In fact, that's partly what artists are marketing - permission to perform the effect as you...

Well said Shane. One thing that is undisputed about David is how genuine, honest, and humble of a person he actually is. To claim he uses trickery in his 'endurance stunts' is ludicrous. Wouldn't take much endurance, would it? To my knowledge, Guinness records operate under test conditions.

Taking shots at individual members / the community at large is not permitted. That said, you are free to express your opinion(s) in a positive manner. We're all for thought provoking posts, but your complete lack of respect for our members will not be tolerated.

The way you boast leads me to believe you know less about the art than any other member here (especially since your 'assumption' about Pressure is completely false). Your posts have displayed nothing but a complete lack of respect for artists and magicians everywhere. As a magician of over 13...

Just finished deleting a number of posts from this thread that were completely uncalled for. That said, here are my thoughts: I find it highly ironic that the same members who complain about various effects not being shown in their 'entirety' via online demos will sit here and, essentially...

As the original inquiry has been addressed, I'm going to go ahead and close this one - before it gets too off topic. ;)

Our 1-on-1 schedule has been postponed over the last couple of weeks, due to a few other projects we've been working on. That said, there will most definitely be a 1-on-1 this week. Be here on Friday at 11pm EST for full info. Appreciate your patience guys!

As this thread pertains to a site that... well, isn't theory11 - I think this would better be suited for D&D's forums: http://community.dananddave.com/

I second this. Also, be sure to check out his Breakthrough Card System. Good stuff.

Because this appears to have been taken from a copyrighted production, I went ahead and removed the link. It can certainly be classified as exposure, as well - so I'm going to go ahead and close the thread. That said, I absolutely love Jean-Pierre's work and highly recommend picking up anything...

I'll second everyone's thoughts here. Looking forward to your return Steer. God speed.

As stated previously - more information will be posted when we are ready to speak publicly about it. For now though, just stay tuned... Rest assured, the.Wire is still in development, still in the works, and will be fully uncovered in due time. And it is well worth the wait. ;)
