    Hi... from a confused layman...

    There is no such thing as "real magic" like Harry Potter does, and what you describe would be very achievable to most somewhat studied magicians. So to answer your question, it was not something supernatural. Like has already been mentioned above. In the future, I predict that you will be much...

    Magic Souvenir for sponsors

    I did a small run of coffee mugs that were black and changed color when the cup got hot. The mugs had my logo and website on it.

    People Who "Kill" The Magic

    A bit of both. Sometimes we play with an idea, show it to a few people and decide if it's actually deceptive. Often it's our skill level, or performance and patter choices that make it deceptive. Sometimes, it's just a good or bad trick. At one point in my favorite card routine, there is a...

    Aberdeen Thread Patter Suggestions

    Life can seem chaotic, unfair, challenging, or difficult, yet our perspective matters. It's those very challenges that wholly make us who we are. Once we can see that each of those events have shaped us, we can see how they actually don't break us, but weave together to form the tapestry of our...

    App for magicians (Magic Manager)

    That's an interesting idea. If there was say, 5-10 public domain simple magic tricks preloaded, Then people could see how it works, what it should look like, and filling it up might not be so daunting. The tricks need to be public domain, not just exposed on youtube.

    App for magicians (Magic Manager)

    Just downloaded. I notice that hierarchy is spelled wrong in the tutorial slides., just fyi ;) Also noticed (Nexus 6p): -Search feature doesn't seem to work, nothing happens. (I would love for it to search all the text, rather than just titles and tags) - Is there a way to add a feature to...

    J. B. Bobo signature?

    It does look the same as the other signature. The first Bo, the top of the B is pointed, and the o looks like an a. The last bo in bobo look the same as well. The b's are done the same style and the o's finish the same direction. I'd wager that's legit.

    Annoying Spectators

    Heh I once did tossed out deck and one lady didn't sit. I asked what card she had seen and she named a card that wasn't even in the deck. So awkward because you can't exactly call them out for lying.... Now I always have a clear box in view on the side of the stage with a deck of cards...

    Is it too late to seriously get into magic?

    Whoah there. Careful with that chipotle talk. You might get JB fired up... (I didn't really start learning until I was 20-21)

    Gig Tips

    Ha ask all the questions! I'm more worried about the people who have it all figured out and don't want to learn anything! Tons of great advice here. Also, I know nothing about kids magic or marketing to that demographic. I only do corporate clientele and private parties. I'm a minimalist and...

    Welcome to the forums! I'm a fan of Bobo's Modern coin magic myself. A great resource to work through.

    Now here's a good question! (Magician Origin Stories)

    Thanks for sharing! I've always picked up tricks as a kid and in university I attended a university staff party and there was a deck sitting on the table. I started showing people some of the tricks I had accumulated and was so surprised how much they enjoyed them. They talked about them for...

    Have you guys seen Chris Ramsay's new series of videos?

    That's actually very close to how I respond. I usually say something like, "No, but keep talking like that and she might make YOU disappear!" Then I laugh which makes it passive-aggressive and that usually gets a good laugh from the table.

    Broke Aspiring Magicians

    This is a great question. It’s great because I think many people ask it for all different reasons! These are my general thoughts on the topic. With regards to this question, the most important answer is ‘work’. This is important for a number of reasons, but mostly because it is important to...

    Ugh, this one is the worst. I feel so bad for the wife when some foolish guy says this.
