    New Trick

    Pardon me for asking, it sounds great, I was just wondering, what part of the trick is "new" per se? Is it the instantaneous bending of a coin or something else? My knowledge of coin magic is nada, admittedly.

    How to Write a Response in a Thread...

    Dylan, I agree based on a Utopian principle, but honestly, most people are just hanging out here and don't take posts terribly seriously - help when they can, otherwise can't really be bothered going through all that. I definitely didn't read your post three times. Part of the T11 atmosphere is...

    Gaff Decks

    Morgician certainly brings up something to think about... frost, I think just the one key thing here is that you do need to know sleight of hand for gaff decks - unless you're buying the DVDs that teach tricks and sleights along with the deck, if you just have the deck, you'll have to rely on...

    Gaff Decks

    The routines around those are all stuff like moving the angels one by one into one corner. If you have a look on YouTube, the performance videos from the Ultragaff DVD's are on there for many of the tricks, so have a look around - I stumbled upon them a while ago, so I couldn't tell you how to...

    Thread Through Stomach

    Funny you should mention that. Wayne has just sent an email around regarding the release of Thread, a thread from mouth through eye that was performed by Criss Angel in 2005.

    Gaff Decks

    Hrm, tough to say. You would at the very least need duplicates, but aside from that, you could probably substitute different sleights for the ace vanishes - whether it would lose the visual aspect is another question altogether, though, I don't think it would be as nice. I can't see it happening...

    Gaff Decks

    Tricks with gaff cards come in all shapes and sizes, limited only by what you can create! For example, with gaff cards such as blank cards, you can have many effects that involve a disappearing card. With a card with a different coloured back, you can have changing colour tricks. Other gaffs...

    An Open Window on Chicago

    Hey guys... I wanted to show you something I've been working on, and admittedly am rather proud of. It's a crime fiction short story I've been writing involving a magician, hence my posting it here, though it is much more than a story about any single crime. The concept of this short story has...

    A bit of "art" with Centurions.

    Hey man, I love what you've done here, nice work :) From a purely artistic point of view though, the shade of blue on the pips feels a little weird, and that vein in your left hand looks a little strange... I'm not sure about this final comment but the dark edges of the hands (not the...

    Playing with Ideas

    Keep in mind that that's your perspective as a magician, though, not as a flourisher :) Name... Requiem? Everything rolling around one last time before settling seems appropriate.

    Criss Angel Believe :: The Reviews Are In

    People can be defensive perhaps... The staff do try very hard to be neutral though, so meh, I wouldn't take much note. I agree with your assessment about fame vs. magic though.

    Your thoughts on psychics...

    "How come I'm in the top 1% here in Canada?" Because stupid people exist, in large numbers. Reality rarely derives from perception, yet most confuse perception as reality, hence the saying that perception is reality.

    Famous magicians

    I have to go out in a sec but in short, I believe the answer lies in how well you can perform for a spectator and involve them in the experience of magic; as opposed to amazing stuff done by you, it's the amazing experience which is important. You are not the star of the show but rather the...
