and in the corner some soul carved "thank God there were no thimbles"

i second that. (if you dont know what happened. then it didnt happen to you. and no apology is necessary to you)

if you read my previous posts on my own definition of art. you would understand that i consider it art.

i agree that every trick should be strong. but isnt their benefit in having one trick stronger than the one before it? theres no point in having super strong climax after super strong climax over and over. theres no story, no theater no drama to your set if thats what you do. why not...

this goes back to what art is. does something become art when it entices emotion? a Picasso entices no emotion in me. but i'm 179.45723% sure its still art.

i did notice the 'flash' where it didnt reveal the method and ruin the efftect. it did dampen the suspense. and it allowed and audience to jump ahead of you.

i'm excited to see you over here. eostresh

thats what i was saying, and quite often the cardistry becomes a supplement to the music. thats the problem. when the music fulfills that role and nothing more. yes. cardistry is an art. ever been to a concert? or listened to the radio? i find it the centerpiece there.

i see your point. but why does it need to be proven?

i'm not saying that there cant be cuts, and i'm not saying that there cant be music. cuts and music are welcome, as long as they don't detract from the cardistry.

but that doesnt say that somewhere it cant be done, when i watched andreis video, the name escapes me, on youtube i was totally caught in the cardistry, i didnt care about the music. that to me was art. (it wasnt genesis, no exposure promise)

the video does lose a lot in my eyes with out the music, what the music does is add an art, what the music does is turn the cardistry into a visual aid for the music, not the other way around. i have a hard time seeing passion and energy in his performance, probably because its cut to...

if you seriously want to study this and gain a strong understanding of how to construct a set and make it strong.. strong magic. by darwin ortiz if you make the purchase, you wont regret it. i promise you.

the way i see nothing in and of itself can be art. its the human (or divine) element that makes it art. and that allows everything to be art.

whats funnier is his name is about cards.

i didn't say baseball in itself was an art, i was just trying to get my point across that anything can be an art. if the love and passion for the activity is evident on the audience thing. its the passion that makes it art. its the love for what ones doing and the ability for anyone...

i consider music an art. i think everybody does. anybody who doesn't, shouldn't be arguing here, until they know what art is. when i play music. i don't feel any specific emotions. i dont feel anger when playing a piece like Ticelli's Vesuvius. and i don't feel a sense of peace when i play...

progression. you want your set to have a similar curve to a story. an exposition, rising action, climax, a super effective way to achieve progression is to slowly make the conditions under which you perform it more and more constricting. (daryls ACR, the last phase he wraps the deck with...

this guy knows his stuff. close up magic will give you a stronger foundation for stage later. its only a week. you can use close up more frequently. like if your just chillin with friends and they are getting bored. you can't pull out a dove and do some dove work. well, i guess you could...

thats heavy stuff ced. but i see where it comes from and i see its points. but kids are so scattered they're everywhere!!!!! trust me i'm a kid i know!! and theres only one adult magician anywhere near me. and i dont like how he operates his business and his magic is something that just...
