    Style

    Honky? The only time I've ever heard that word used was in 8 Mile. Lol but I'm guessing it's cuz of the brain-train. NOT cuz you think I'm white. HAHA! And if you actually read the whole thing: Thanks!

    Style

    I like your word choice :) huckster (never heard that one before)- One who uses aggressive, showy, and sometimes devious methods to promote or sell a product. Kinda sounds like me. For example, recently my club at school was trying to sell raffle tickets to raise money for charity and I...

    Style

    Yea!! Ok. Trick Selection: I like tricks that directly involve the spectator. their hands, their coins their thoughts etc. I like simple effects kinda like how David Blaine says in his book how you should be able to describe the effect in one sentence or less. I used to be into...

    January 2009 :: From One Generation To Another

    The way I do it is: I like the classic tricks of magic. They've stood the test of time and audiences like them. That is why we should look to the older generation. Whenever I find an old trick, I try to customize it so that it fits my performance style, not really modernizing it, but...

    Coin Under Watch with Oz Pearlman

    I like this trick. I learnt it from Peter Harrison's notes about a year ago. What I can't figure out is what's an equally impossible location if they don't have a watch? (stupid cellphones)

    Cards - What do you do with the seal?

    I also do that. But for like an invisible deck. I tear it off because it's a really simple way to tell the boxes apart and the spectator's never notice. Just an idea.

    Best Psychological Force

    You could use an invisible deck, or the thought of riffle force. They both appear to be thought of. Also there's the gag where you have the force card on top and you let them name any card and turn it over. If you hit it, just act like that is what always happens. If not just laugh it off...

    You are not an artist!

    I personally think you begin your path to becoming an artist once you start to realize how little you really know and you step back and start to look at the big picture. Sorta like an epiphany? An artist is someone who is truly passionate about their artform, respects it history, and...

    Saturday Night Contest - Resolutions for 2009

    In 2008, I was able to discover the kind of style that I wanted to perform with: a little crazy rebellious character that the audience could still relate to. I started paying attention to what I was saying and developing my patter. After some experimentation, I figured out what kind of...

    Will Thread be dangerous?

    Yea I agree. Don't own it but I'm thinking about it. This just reminded me in the Prestige when he chops off his fingers so he can do the "Bouncing Ball" trick.

    Hecklers

    People busting you is a good feeling kinda. I mean it's not as good as pure amazement but it shows you what you need to work on. Just brush it off. Maybe they're just a jerk. But if you get similar comments over and over again try reworking your tricks... "oh the one where you pick the...
