    Magic Collecting

    I don't collect too much. When it comes to books, I'm just gathering what I can to learn from, when I become more established in the art I will probably start collecting better versions of the books, etc... but right now I'm just dissecting the material and it's getting worn. I do have a 1st...

    Mentalism/PK Effects

    I don't know much about Downfall, don't own it. It hasn't gotten the best reviews, but I'd still like to check it out to further my knowledge. Spin, just received it. Still toying around with it... but it is well worth the money. Incredible. do not hesitate to get it. Powerword fall is great as...

    Control - Reactions?

    You are stopping your pulse... Can it get more powerful, when performed correctly (that's the key part). Now, one of the more interesting aspects of the technique is that not only can you slow your heart beat to a stop, you can also speed it up.. you have full control. So the possibilities of...

    The Transition from Newbie to Amateur

    I think a lot of it has to do with vision. When you're starting out, there's a lot of getting your feet wet, whether it's buying dvds or buying books. or both. You're learning about what makes what happen. Getting familiar in this unfamiliar world. Then when you've established a lot of the basic...

    The Transition from Newbie to Amateur

    Could just be my opinion. I think you're still of the naive newbie mindset if you use EITHER as a crutch. I think a smart magician will use all possible options to learn as much as they can. A lot of outstanding material has come out on dvd. A lot of this material can't be found in books. The...

    How do you become a con man ?

    I think a lot of Con relies on experience and acting. But if you're interested in this for entertainment purposes... or whatever purposes you might have, I don't care... You can always start with Modern Con Man: How To Get Something For Nothing by Todd Robbins. I've read it a time or two, and...

    I cant make up my mind!

    So, you are meeting this girl for the first time...

    It sounds like a broken record, but impressing a girl with magic is just as corny as with music. I'm a musician... and I knooow girls have a thing for it... but you won't get any further than an initial 10 second impression if you don't have personality to back it up. So what, you do your trick...

    What exactly does Derren Brown do...?

    how would I describe him? God.

    Are there things too strong to do?

    Audience and environment selection plus presentation, presentation, and presentation. The end.

    Best learning tool?

    This has nothing to do with being a follower of any certain person... I actually was pretty unfamiliar with Jikh. But Genesis is much much better for the beginner than The Trilogy. I own both and XB and prefer this. I've had so much trouble getting started in cardistry, Genesis is the only thing...

    51 Seconds to Impress

    51 seconds? invisible deck might take up most of that time. If this were me... and I wanted to showcase both juggling and magic in 51 seconds. I would juggle balls then do some magic with the balls... before or after the juggling. I wouldn't wasted time putting the cards away etc...

    Black Tiger or Shadow Master?

    I honestly don't think the audience will think it's a trick deck... That'd only happen if you suck. Everytime I've used a black deck, they thought it looked cool. Now, the problem I have with them, Shadow Masters anyway, is that after a lot of practice my hands turn black. And they wear very easily.

    Inside - Daniel Madison

    yeah, I'm in Colorado and mine arrived yesterday. and I got copy 96 out of 100. So, I'm assuming anyone who ordered around the same time I did, will be getting there's soon.
