Mike you have a good point. Even the best at the height of their game will throw in a cover. I want to a Lady Antebellum concert and the sang Aerosmith, and I've seen Sugarland sing Michael Jackson. There is great power in performing the familiar. That's why David Copperfield still performs...

I like to look at magic and its similarities to the other arts. One thing that gets me is the idea of a "cover band". These are the bands that play nothing but other peoples material. They don't write any of their stuff they regurgitate what has already been written with very little...

if you show just a packet of cards, say 15, mixed it may work. You keep the deck in new deck order and have a short card at the top. Then you use a random set of 10 or 15 cards for the trick. At the end of the effect find the short card and palm off the random cards.

I think he's doing it with 2 hands though, with the rubber band between the two. Here's a picture of Marcus Eddies "Stairway"

Sounds like some really neat stuff :) There's not a lot in the coins section so I hope you do well. Welcome to the forums I lived in Montreal for a little bit. There are a couple great brick and mortar magic shops in the area :)

It sounds unique. To find out you could post a video and have some of the forum members tell you what we think. Or you could film a trailer and tutorial and submit it to the wire. You might be able to check out the originality here http://archive.denisbehr.de/index.php

It looks a lot like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nSB7d8VrhQ I'm not sure if linking one strand at a time is enough of a change. I did a quick search and didn't find anything though, it might be just different enough to make the cut but I don't know.

MARCO TEMPEST!!! NO WAY!!! Which did you become interested in first magic or technology?

Hey I've been playing arround with the effect and I have done it exactly as you show 10 or 15 times. It has really worked out well. I haven't have any problems with the switch or the spectator turning the card over before I'm ready. The trick here is to put the card aside and not to hand it to...

The Derren Brown lecture available ant vanishing inc and penguin has 2. One for the 3 of diamonds and one for the 7 of hearts. I don't own it but I believe Rich Ferguson has something on This is Mentalism Volume 1

Totally sweet! I love stuff like this hehehehe

I'm with Craig and Randy. In a simple theater class you learn what it feels like to be onstage have a good script, or heaven forbid MEMORIZE lines. Try out for a local play. You learn how to improvise when someone forgets a line or when a piece of scenery doesn't get into place on time. It...

Just like in dance, or theater you need motivation. In an effort to make the concept clear we have broken it down into character and scripting. Not everyone tells stories when they do magic but the best always have some motivation.

Andrei Jikh looks like Ryan Marshal from Walk off the Earth. Second from the right, I'm pretty sure this means Andrei has a secret life as a musician :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9NF2edxy-M&feature=channel

In your creative career what effects are you most proud of?

I agree with Asher these guys will help you out. Don't hesitate to contact the theory11 team.

It's a totally cool effect. It is going to be even stronger if you put some presentation into it. I'll ask you the same questions Paul Draper once asked me. 1. What is your character? 2. Why are you performing? 3. What is your power? 4. Why should we watch you? A good presentation will help us...

He's teaching it for free this week, but Jay Sankeys "Outsider" from Secret files uses a double backer. http://www.sankeymagic.com/detail.aspx?ID=48451

Yeah I understand, I'd hate for him to get in trouble with his employer. I'm sure he wishes he could talk about more but that's life I guess. I'm still totally excited for this interview :)

Awwww mannnnn! But RoooOOOOooob anybody can talk about their creative process, or what inspires them but only a few can talk about what it's like working with "The greatest illusionist of our time" :)
