Not to bump, but I'm just curious. Ian

Well then it's the Vado for me. Ian

Well, budget is involved in a lot of cases. And the Vado is amazing. Ian

http://devilsadvocateproductions.com/Play.html Is it still available? I know DAP redirects to DM's site, but this was up so... Any thoughts on the book itself? Ian

I'm planning on getting a Creative Vado HD. $100 on Amazon.com, and incredible quality. Way better than most cameras five times the price. Ian

Now I understand. The Cardini snap change, which is taught in Card Manipulations, is different from the Cardini change. I believe the change we know as Cardini is found in Card Control by Arthur Buckley. I did a little bit of research and found out that his Color Change (Instantaneous) is...

Snap Change - Back of left hand to front of card area, eye level, no instant clean up technique Click Change - Before cleanup, front of card area, eye level, after cleanup, surrounded Yes, the Click Change has instant clean up, but it does take a second or two, so it's really not...

First, this should go in the Card Magic Forum. Second, there was way too much thumb action. I think you may be performing it incorrectly in that way. The fade was too long as well. Otherwise, it was fluid and smooth, which is what counts. Ian

Everyone, This thread can make some good points, and I think it has value. Let's not get it closed. Ian

Also, if the effect is too easy to figure out, it is the magician's fault. It's not the viewer's for being too intelligent. Ian

Guys, Let's get on topic here. Personal issues can be discussed via PMs. Getting back to the OP and some comments that were made, do you think that magicians rehashing old ideas every day is the same thing as figuring out a trick and performing it? Glad to see it's a hot topic, but...

From a guitarist here - epic win. Ian

I learned it from Justin Miller's Silver Dream. Pick that up if you haven't learned it from there already. It also teaches the Basketball Vanish, Himber Vanish, sleeving, and a gimmicked version. Superb effect as well. [/PLUG] He goes over retention of vision. As soon as the ball of the hand...

Jtmorris, I agree, it is obvious, but I wanted to hear some rebuttals and points. I personally think it is morally wrong, but it's a personal choice. Ian

In today's cash-strapped world, what do you think? If you figure out an effect, do you have the right to perform it? Of course, one could make the comparison to laymen, saying that if they figure something out, then they can perform it. But as magicians, we have a respect for the art...

Wayne Houchin's French Kiss comes to mind. Ian

Yeah, I'd die to go Friday, but darn school...ugh. Ian

I want to. This would be my first magic convention. Friday's schedule looks great. I have school though. I want to catch the Danny Garcia lecture though. Ugh...is he doing Saturday too? Ian

MINDFWEEK!!! Ian

No. Honestly. Fame can do such bad things...it's rarely positive. It can be, though. What if you tried to copy Malini and carried an ice block on your person...then forgot it was there and wondered why you were leaking? Ian
