    Wisdom needed

    Well, it obviously depends on how much of a commitment you want to make. If you're really interested in cards, I'd recommend getting Card College or The Art of Astonishment, both of which are large investments, but which both contain a smorgasbord of effects and sleights. If you're looking...

    Dude. No way. If you want good music, go for The Pixies or The Flaming Lips. Monkey Gone to Heaven--Pixies Lightning Strikes the Postman--Flaming Lips Check 'em out.

    Dribble Discrepancy Control tips

    Hey all, I've recently come across some posts about Dan and Dave's DDC (see title) and just thought I might share some things I've learned about it. Yes, I do actually use this. It's very bold, but when done right is very deceptive. Probably the most important thing to remember is to keep...

    That makes me never want to do magic again.

    The most revolutionary one handed flourish

    That was probably the most amazing thing I've seen so far (this morning).

    Kardwell

    I actually quite literally just received my order via UPS from them not ten minutes ago. I ordered 12 Wynns which, so far, are great. I also got some Aviators which I'm not liking as much, but it's probably because I'm not used to the finish. I've ordered cards from them before and have never...

    You guys (gals) play nice

    Yay, it's Brad Henderson. Good to hear you're still alive. What in particular are you performing? Is it mainly closeup? Keep us updated.

    Battle System - Cheesy?

    Well, on one hand, I do think it's a little bit juvenile (the battle system, that is), but on the other hand, that's kind of what makes it fun. It's the fact that I can get rid of any apprehensions and just go out and act like an idiot along with other people I've never met and not be judged...

    Team Revolution

    I was going to obnoxiously point out that you wrote "burrow money" instead of "borrow money," but I realized that "burrow" works quite well in that context, you freeloading mole. (wink wink)

    Dan and Dave : Coen Brothers?

    Uh, actually he's right that film and magic go hand in hand. The earliest film editing techniques were developed by magicians. Check out Georges Melies (I think that's how it's spelled). EDIT: Yeah, check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs5BBaNJ6mg&feature=related

    Gah! BAD burn/blister on right middle finger!

    You know, you didn't have to post pictures. I believed you. I guess I won't be eating anymore today. Get the one-hand shuffle down. Or try Brian Tudor 1 Hand Rev. cuts.

    Discrepancy Dribble Control

    I've actually been working on this one for a while and I've found that it's best to practice it on segments and then combine the segments one at a time. It is quite bold, but if you get the timing down, your specs won't be any the wiser.

    T11 and Mac's

    I know this has probably been discussed before, but I can't for the life of me find anything. Could anyone perhaps direct me to any information about Mac compatibility for T11 videos. I just got a Mac and am curious as to whether or not 1-on-1s will work. Thanks.

    Saturday Night Contest - theory11 roundtable : Andrei Jikh

    Could you let us in on the specifics of your typical practice session when you were just starting and perhaps comment on how it has evolved? (question #2 by the way)

    Saturday Night Contest - theory11 roundtable : Andrei Jikh

    You have some very unique flourishes that you have created. When you create, do you have a desired visual quality in mind or do you just fool around and see what happens?
