    Give up the Ghost

    Really nice video... I didn't know the Shk yet : any place I could still see some of his work ?

    Pen tricks?

    If you're interested in pure misdirection, you should definitely check Son of a Recap from Apollo Robbins on his Cultural Xchange DVD. I think it's in volume 1. And if you want to do the cigarette moves, the Encyclopedia of Cigarette Tricks is, from what I've heard, a must have.

    Performance - Flourishing

    I do perform a few flourishes within some routines. But I never do a "flourish routine" alone.

    Necklace/Bracelet Magic?

    A well known piece of con-artistry is the Fast and Loose game, so I guess you could present it as a mentalism piece. For more information, check this wonderful website Good luck ;)

    Headshot'd Lol. Anyway, as you said before, you are 14, and you are a begginner. However, you are wrong to judge the comments that were written on your tutorial thread : first of all, it's exposure. Then, it's YOUTUBE exposure. Finally, your video editing suggests "high standard" ; so, we...

    Card Controls: What is you Favorite?

    I do perform the classic pass, even though a simple break(+dribble!)+pass can work wonder when done with the appropriate amount of misdirection. However, the best looking ones are, imho, the Clipshift and the Cherry control (can't figure the angles though :( )

    On the art of real world magic (or what should magic look like)

    I understand your point of view, although I'm hereby talking about real world magic, and not gig, not someplace where your audience is expecting you to do magic for them. In street/casual settings, fire as an opener will scream : I'm dangerous AND I'm a show off. And imho, it's not a good...

    On the art of real world magic (or what should magic look like)

    Let's face it, your well-performed, hard-hitting effects are probably the most awesome thing your audience will ever witnessed in a day/week/month/year/life, and furthermore, they will only be better and better as they recall it (see Thread interview - Wayne Houchin). With that in mind, I shall...

    ZAP by Hon Wong

    Well I kinda agree with you, but I read some creepy stuff about it in a french forum from seemingly professional hypnotist, so, beware... I'll try a approximate translation of what I've read : The way Zap works is similar to a Knock Out : acceleration causes the brain to touch the...
