I don't remember where I read it, but I read somewhere a method of doing it with a regular rubber band. Very simple, yet very good.

Hey everyone. I remember there were places you could download the T11 music, all the different compositions and all, for different video contests etc, but I can't remember where. Can any one direct me to where I could download all of the T11 music? Thanks Glenn

Yes, it is a play on words, a pun, but it does not make sense as one. There is no reason for the play. Usually a play on words is only clever, and appropriate if both meanings have a logical connection to the use. For example, although not the best, but it is just the first one that comes...

I don't think the effect will be diminished so much. that is, you will not have an effect that is lacking. Of course producing a hand full of hundreds in itself has an added impact, but your audience does not know that is what is supposed to happen, and seeing any change is startling. Going...

Your notion of respect seems to stem from the notion of basic respect of other people just for being. They are people too, that is. This warrants treating people with respect, yes, BUT this does not mean people should be immune to criticism. I respect peoples rights, and that they should be...

This is good to hear, and I am sure we all appreciate it. I am kind of surprised that you did not realize how using his name like that would come across. You made a video advertising an effect you could purchase and sold it with the line that it looked exactly like DM's effect. You...

I am 25. I know that you did not mention audience size, I brought it up as an example of how what Blaine did could be considered different from busking. Focusing the camera on spectators is not what defines "street magic." Yes, it was a brilliant move on his part, but it is not a...

Any who, how's 'bout I actually say something on topic, lol. My "favourites" would be; Slydini, incredible work on timing and misdirection Vernon, and I'm not just saying that because he's the "in" name to drop Tommy Wonder, outside of his intracit(sp) work, he was like a modern Slydini with...

Even if it's not like his, you CLEARLY tried to sell your product with Madison's name and effect. You say right in the video that it is based of his work, and by the way, mentioning someone's name in no way, "crediting" them means dick all if you are ripping them off and don't have their...

Um, not really. all he did was bring it to the mainstream. He started nothing but a new found interest and fad focused on something that has been around fro a long time. If you are really splitting hairs around the "presentation" of walking up to only a "few" people, instead of gathering a...

Well, this isn't disrespectful, unethical, and inconsiderate at all, now is it . . .

Um, "First street magic," no, I'm sorry to say, well, not really sorry, there's nothing wrong with saying this, but "street" magic predates Blaine by quite some time, and I mean even predates his birth my friend. Look up Busking, or just "street performers."

It is a set up that is confined to one location, so it is not transient. However, it allows for some incredible feats with levitation. It allows you to float an object straight up above your head even, with nothing above you. IE, you could do it out side, with nothing above you but open sky.

I must agree on the current phase of camera work. The MTV generational influence. As for the Outjog Hermann Pass, it is a great move. Although I did not purchase the 1 on 1 for it, as I own The Paper Engine where it is discussed in detail, I have been using variations of it for years. In the...

For FS, most coke bottles, even filled with water, would not work. For FS you want a bottle with a reltively flat bottom, ie, not all bumps like Coke bottles, curved edges is normal, and fine, but not bumps. And the coin needs to fit in the mouth, those are the only real requirments.

I think the two posts above show the truly justified feelings about such people. There are those who are jealous and that alone is why they don't respect them, something that, with many of todays younger crown, started with Blaine. They all saw a guy doing tricks they knew, but he was making...

Now what was inappropriate about my Fire in the Hole question?

Respect should not be directly related to accomplishments. Someone can accomplish a hell of a lot, but if they lied cheated and stole their way to the top, shoudl we respect them? Not that I am saying that is what the people in question did, I am simply saying that respect is not based on just...

Essentially this is what is meant by "Suspension of Disbelief." I believe Ortiz sort of separates this from that colloquialism, but essentially, this is what they are trying to say when they use the term "suspension of disbelief." This is not something your spectators have to do on their own...

Ask him where he got the idea for Fire in the Hole :D
