    True Astonishments - Easter Eggs

    That sucks... I prefer just copying and pasting yours to a document and printing off. I'm sure his compilation of your notes would suck up more ink than necessary!

    True Astonishments - Easter Eggs

    so are those the notes that Harris put on his site? just with this guy taking all the credit for it? or are your notes still elsewhere? Either way... that's horribe.

    Paperclipped - Weighing My Options

    When I saw Mat (La Vore)perform this I had to go "shut up..." I wanted to slap him... I don't normally get too fooled by card tricks anymore... this one did it. The prediction presentation is strong, because as a spectator, you're expecting an unsigned dupe... But then the actual signed card is...

    Meaningful Magical Moments

    wow. Stories like that make all the hundreds and thousands of dollars we spend on these "silly" toys and pieces of paper, priceless. Magic is such an intimate and personal art that it's success, as most art should be, is defined in moments like this, rather than an on going show on the Vegas...

    Playing Cards in Denver, Colorado

    Bees I have seen at Walgreens. Bicycles are... everywhere... Steamboats... not so sure. I live in great ol Colorado.

    Is Thread Dangerous?

    If everything is sanitary, it should be okay. Although, thread was never designed to be in the eye so of course there will be irritation. if you have an infection, obviously something was wrong that was not a factor of the trick. Otherwise it probably wouldn't be on the market. Was it sanitary...

    Pressure?

    This is definitely an effect where you have to build some sort of credibility before you perform it. And if you have that, you will blow them away. On the other hand, if you don't have control of the situation, things could go south quickly. I highly recommend it. It's very easy move wise, but...

    t11.bulletin - WHAT TO READ with Jason England

    what a great 1-on-1. The Card Magic of Le Paul has quickly become a bible to me for card magic. I love his work. Definitely some great choices in there. and also many books I've over looked when building my library. So I will definitely start collecting. Thank you for sharing this.

    Saw

    It is an simple effect... and that's why I'm so confused as to how I'm having this problem and no one else seems to be having it. I talked with someone about it, and will try out some of his ideas. but will see what you guys think to get more variety.

    Magicians on AGT Tonight

    My main complaint with Dan's act was that I was not able to see the performance... it did seem hidden. I've seen him do this act before and it felt much more open. I have a bad feeling he won't make it through. I love his work, but felt like piers killed his chance.

    Saw

    I was looking for someone to talk privately about it to. I can't really explain it without giving much away, so, I didn't try.

    Saw

    I am having trouble creating a good illusion with this. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here, I was hoping somebody could help me. Not sure if it's the gimmick I'm using or how I'm getting into position, or what...

    What Comes Next

    according to what he said, he's only been in cardistry for a few months. I think it's too early to move on to something like Papercuts, which seems to be pretty complex. The thing to do now is to master these moves by themselves, that way it's easier when you take up bigger routines. The...

    What Comes Next

    Genesis by Andrei Jikh (not dan and dave) It's easily where I would go next. I wish it was around when I started.

    The Magician Persona

    I think it depends on how you present yourself. I've never wanted to be seen as a one trick pony... whether it be for music, magic, or... anything... yet, I don't like the term "Entertainer" because that always reminds me of Wayne Newton. I've always wanted to be seen as an artist. Whether it be...

    I actually loved watching this... the concept looks amazing... Not sure if I'll end up picking it up... Brilliant though.

I am alone in america, my family left to germany and I stayed to make my way in the world. and I struggle every day... but I get by... sometimes you have to suck it up and go the hard way. I get up at 4am every morning to stand in line at the...

    Saturday Night Contest - theory11 : the movie

    -Eleven- Plot- To Wayne a trick was just not a trick. It was survival. Living in a civilization of carnies and sideshow freaks, it was not a hobby, it was life. Unlike his kin, he was not gifted with this natural ability to amaze. For years he kept this a secret. He would be killed if found...

    Late 1-on-1 This Week?

    The longer you wait for something to happen, the longer it will be for something to happen. The fact that so many rely on Theory to do the progressing in their art is kind of sad. Develop your own visions, your own goals. The Wire, as great as it may or may not be, doesn't really hold much say...
