    A challenge of sorts

    I get ya. The venue is just so ripe for amazing presentations, it’s too good to pass up! But same idea but in my usual style…and I think that’s a problem for me since I haven’t made a solid statement about my style, or at least one that sets me apart from the majority of magicians. If they want...

    A challenge of sorts

    Wow, that’s a long performance for that many people! Maybe not for you, you seem like a seasoned performer and I think your style can fit that type of venue really well.…but me I would shoot for half of that time. My inexperience and style limits me especially in that type of setting. And I’m...

    Omega Deck | Mirage Deck??

    You are not just buying a prop but buying the; teaching, the nuances and routining, basically picking the brain of someone who has spent time testing and figuring out an advanced/sneakier handling. Sure you could buy the prop and spend months figuring it all out thru trial and error, but why...

    Need Book Recommendations

    The sheer heft of Dr. Rubinstein‘s book is something else, it’ll stop a bullet. If you buy this and the Jennings book at the same time alert your mail carrier🤣 I thought you had it or I would have named it. It is a decently organized book with moves sleights and techniques up front, the...

    Need Book Recommendations

    …well this is odd, usually you are answering these requests🤣 but here we go… You seem a fan of Giobbi’s work, if you don’t have it Sharing Secrets is a decent read and a concept a week is fun project if you want it to be. That book doesn’t seem to be filling a hole in your collection though, so...

    Saturday Night Contest - Resolutions for 2022!

    Oh geez…resolutions…I have a habit of biting off more than I can chew with these. I have things I want to do versus time available🤣 I didn’t hit all my magic goals from last year but this year was much better for me than the previous. Part of this was because some the things that were put on...

    Effective magic training?

    In general I would choose something to learn(this informs you what’s fundamental), break it up into smaller bits and practice those bits individually (methods, script, etc), then those bits are practiced with intent and context but usually in short form(phases usually), then put it all together...

    Answer, It's urgent!!!!

    Have you tried asking the persons idea they are building on that they tagged? Some creators will give you information on what they have read or seen to come up with their ideas. If it’s marketed I’m sure they’ll tell you the name because they want to sell it…

    How do I figure out if a trick I came up with has been performed before?

    Its the holidays in the USA so some of the usual suspects on these forums might be occupied for a bit. If you are learning on your own it’s likely you are reinventing the wheel as you go. Its a fairly safe bet that what you have discovered has been done before. You could always post a...
