who doesn't accept that we can't know everything?

such a ridiculously broad question.

I think performing for magicians is actually quite useless, and the only practical reason I see for doing so is to check technique. But, if they're being complacent, and I want them to advance their horizons: -Diplopia by Paul Vigil -Triple Coincidence by Juan Tamariz (I'm not sure if it's...

go have a look at the ellusionist forums. they have a LOT of threads about this.

Well they shouldn't be looking. Misdirect them. Btw, visualartist, I love your signature.

oh yes, because obviously fanning is everything in cardistry.

Far out, I love Australians. Cricket > Baseball. and boxing day shopping in Melbourne. craaaazy stuff.

i was thinking that the performer could choose what he wanted, but i was going to use: -a coin -a coin (with a different retention) -a card -a spongeball -a cigarette or something similarly shpaed

Do you really need a 1-on-1 for that?

nothing on memorized/stacked decks? Mnemonica - Juan Tamariz ^^

any sympathetic card routine.

I just got mine 2 days ago, and I already have the stack memorized. And I have a terrible memory. The way that it gets taught is incredible. But apart from that, yes, it is so very worth it. If you want to stand out as a card magician, get it.

David stone does a really nice one in "real secrets of magic vol. 1". I'm not sure if it has a name.
