Improving the World... One Interaction At A Time. A Performers Guide to Cultural Interactions By William Draven As an actor at a major motion picture studio, and theme park in Hollywood, as well as a magician I frequently get the opportunity to entertain for from all over the world. A year...

Rick, I'll chime in on that one. The wife wants to have kids and the one major reason why we've not done that yet is because I'm at a very transitional point right now in my personal life. I travel a lot, at least 4 months out of the year, often in a row, and you're absolutely right...

Benji is just one example and he's a new one at that, had it not be for this message board I wouldn't have known about him. Most people I know have jobs that they rely on the side for. Stay in school get an education, and get a job. Work on the magic a little bit at a time until you find a...

You draw some intersting points in your post The Now, and I'd like to counter a few of them with some of my own insight. I can't say that I completely agree with your statements, and I'll address as specificly as I can the points that I contest, and in no specific order. You say in reference...

I certainly believe that anyone has the ability, and should for that matter, to learn how to do magic. However just because one has the capacity to learn and execute a sequence of moves doesn't mean one possesses the same competency for presentation or performance. To that end I believe that...

From Left to Right my cards are: Five of Hearts, Queen of Hearts, Jack of Clubs

By standard what do you mean? Riffle, Table, Over Hand, Slop...?

Craig, While I appreciate your knowledge and experience, why not produce this as a PDF for the Wire? The amount of information and experience you put into your work is certainly worth a buck or two. Thanks for providing us, once again, with another quality educational resource! Kindly...

Props man. I lost my old man to Cancer it's a nasty disease. Since you can't just make it disappear or a cure appear this is an acceptable alternative. Keep up the good work!

This contest does look amazing JB. I think I'm going to play for the shot at a camera, I just don't want to win the backstage pass. Should be fun!

Rick, And that there in lays the biggest obstetrical that I am trying to overcome! You are absolutely correct, the carpet doesn't match the drapes, and that is something that I've had repeated issues with. I've been struggling to overcome it. DannyT, I understand you are echoing above...

I'm surprised Benji hasn't jumped all over this thread yet. This is usually the sort of thing he's attracted to on the forums. Edit: Never mind, he did reply. For some reason my browser just wasn't displaying it.

Goldmos, Thanks for the complements. I have to ask you though, are you seeing the slip because you are a magician and it's blatantly obvious to us what I'm doing, or are you seeing the slip just because it's not covered well?

This video is taken from a 60 minute stage show I performed for my home town on Oct. 16, 2011. This show was considered "demonic", and "not fun" by one person who wasn't even there. Fortunately all outstanding issues with that person was resolved with minimal incident. Of course I would...

Rick, It sounds to me like you flat out killed it! Third time up, and you're handling yourself like a seasoned pro! Stage magic is a different animal, but it looks like you've got it well tamed. I love how you had certain music/audio cues playing in the background. Audio really does...

I love performing for people, be it a paid gig or not. The one thing that does tend to irritate me is when people just assume I'm there for their personal entertainment. Asking me to do magic is one thing (and often I will), but just because I'm a magician expecting me to do something usually...

Bwahahahahahahahaha!

Oh? Free pre-release monarchs? I'll play for that! Here's mine. http://vimeo.com/31665570
