Thanks for your status update.

When you say performing on the street, do you mean like a busker putting on a show or do you mean more like David Blaine?

1. Can you actually do any magic, Christen? 2. Rob, have you done any acting classes? 3. Rob and Christen, what has been the single best moment in magic for you so far?

Blue Crown released a nice looking bill switch in the last 24 hours. I don't know if it's easy to do or if it's practical but it looks good.

You're still young. Meet a girl, get your heart broken, have some fun....and when the time is right magic will give you a call.

I agree with you, it is definitely more fun to have at least one person to talk to. Personally I had all of the above. When I was in school a teacher was a magic hobbyist and all these years later we meet occasionally. I have a handful of good "magic friends" that are great to bounce ideas off...

How very.......American. The card artistry idea is cool but not a fan of the presentation.

Arnold Shwarzenegger's second rule: "Break the rules. We have so many rules in life about everything, I say break the rules, not the law but break the rules. It is impossible to be a maverick or true original if you're too well behaved and don't want to break the rules." "The only way I ever...

I understand your disappointment. The more experience you get the more you will learn about coping with situations like it, whether it's a technical of showmanship solution. Personally, when I'm performing for friends I keep all of the patter and showmanship to a minimum because they don't...

You need to tailor your magic for friends. Friends are more comfortable with you than strangers so a friend will pick up your deck of cards without asking when a stranger would either say nothing or ask to look. Strangers will rarely have a casual attitude towards your magic but friends take...

And so long as people choose to see magic as mere tricks, magicians can't present most effectively either. I don't think there is as much difference between magic and mentalism as you make out Craig. At the end of the day, people are fools if they genuinely believe either of them are real...

Penn & Teller seem to be doing fine and they are completely honest about magic just being tricks.

Judging from your second design I'm struggling to believe you created the first design. Also, the first design looks a lot like a very well known desktop wallpaper. My suggestion, spend more than 4 hours before deciding to get these cards printed. My second suggestion is that you ask advice on...

Thanks Casey, more than enough to convince me to sign up. great videos to reflect on.

Equally Rick, I've had people ask me if I've seen that thing Dynamo does where the coin jumps up from one hand to the other. It does impress people but it's not a trick in itself, it's an offbeat oddity or something that may capture someones attention in an every day scenario.

Don't try to be more than you are and put more focus on the cards, that's my advice.

I think Michael Ammar teaches this. It's in his lecture notes from years ago anyway, so that's a good starting point.

On top of what Rick suggested, storing them in a flat, cool, dry place when not using them is a good idea too.

Looks cool to me. So far it seems they are selling an average looking deck of cards, a card clip and possibly a ring. Revolutionary? No. Possibility of more variety in the magic world, yes.

Insane video. When is v4 coming?
