    Need Input on Design!

    I like how it seems simple, no weird colors or an attempt to look to contemperary, if that makes sense. However, it might be a little bit too overwhelming with everything that's on it.

    Instinct Review

    For those of you that do not know, this is a Russian-roulette with 4 cups and a nail created by Mathew Mello. http://www.thementalplayground.com/instinct.html Simply put... this is very easy, very fun, and very brilliant. It's the kind of effect you wont ever think of, but you'll be furious...

    Looking for a story...

    About a month or two ago I remember reading a story about a magician that helped with the make a wish foundation. He did a show, and at the end he put a GI Joe behind a curtain, and the sick child's father came out from behind, or something to that effect. He was in the military and stationed...

    Creating one's own effects

    I'm a bit curious as to what everyone's opinion is on creating their own effects. Does buying all/most of your material make you a lesser magician? In many books and dvds recommended patter is given, but is this really a good thing for magic? Is it enough to simply tweak effects/sleights to...

    Choices, Choices

    I don't suggest playing around with your eye. It may seem safe at first, but hindsight is 20/20--unless you ruin your vision.

    theory11 on IRC?

    I'd use irc for sure. Gaming is another one of my hobbies right behind magic, so I'm on gamesurge most of the time. :)

    Election in America

    TBH I wasn't crazy over either candidate, but I was tilted a little bit towards Obama. The economy wasn not all of Bush's fault, and I honestly feel that in the next 25-35 years, when reviewing his presidency, he'll be regarded as a pretty decent president. I don't agree with all of the things...

    School Magic

    I've found, when performing for the same people, just altering a trick slightly gets great reactions. Take something as basic as a classic force, and turn it into a 2-3 minute mind reading routine. With a card transpo, have someone step on the card, put it in a book, in the cardbox, whatever. It...

    Sneaky, sneaky...

    Thanks for that long response, it really made me rethink some points. I think a problem in my original post was clairity, but you pointed that out and stated some really strong facts in the first paragraph or two. When I say hiding the big move with a small move, that was partial laziness in my...

    Funny Stuff

    I once had someone insist that getting a number to appear on your arm from stigmata happens when someone squeezes and you let your pulse beat that many times.

    Sneaky, sneaky...

    That's pretty valid, and I had a similar thought. Maybe as a magician I'm over thinking a bit. Does being able to pull off a move without being caught make you a good magician, or does misdirection and sneakiness? I think it all depends on what the definitions off all of those words mean, and...

    Sneaky, sneaky...

    I've noticed a legitimate problem with street magic, one that continues to evolve. The problem is magicians thinking they must be totally sneaky. There are a few reasons why this is not at all true; first of all, laypeople do not know the sleights you are doing -- even if they are not perfect...

    theory11 roundtable discussion - Dan and Dave Buck

    Dan and Dave are two phenomenal flourishers, and I was wondering, what kind of reactions (from laymen) do you get when doing some of your more advanced moves? That is, if you show laymen, or do you just flourish in its own community?
