Does anyone know if there will be DVDs made available of the performances and/or lectures from Magic-Con?

True, but a spectator could become bored with MANY tricks. That's where presentation and audience management come in. Keep in mind that John filmed this as a demonstration for magicians, not as a performance video. Glad you like the effect though!

My friend, John Neely, has come up with a very nice progressive sandwich routine (based on Earthly Powers by Richard Vollmer from the Apocalypse) soon to be featured in the Card Corner section of The Linking Ring magazine. If anyone is interested, you can see a demo of the routine here...

On the Magic Cafe, someone stated that the latest issue of Genii Magazine, includes an interview with Wayne Houchin where he states that he is leaving / has left Theory11. Does anyone have that issue in order to confirm that? Or can someone from Theory11 comment on this? Thanks.

Looks like these are now available at MJM.

The demo video for Devious is now live: http://vimeo.com/4336886

Any review is going to be colored by the characteristics of the person doing the review, so let me just say a few things about myself so you know where I am coming from. I have been doing card magic for a couple of years now. My original spark of interest came from the likes of Blaine and Dan &...

Is there any way to get more details on this?

When I first received the Trilogy, I showed a few non-magician friends several tricks from the set including Deja Vu, Subway and Hofzzy. In each case the reaction was, "What? Wait, how did he do that!" Now, that response is a "magical" response. You don't get that kind of response to a...

If you watch Joshua Jay in that video segment, the version of "Waltzing Cheek to Cheek" that he does involves the two cards fusing together.

It sounds very similar to "Waltzing Cheek to Cheek" (which is a variation of "Anniversary Waltz") which Joshua Jay performed recently on The Morning Show: http://blog.penguinmagic.com/2008/12/joshua-jay-on-today-show.html

Frank Simon's Versatile Card Magic also teaches some pop-out moves. I don't have the book with me right now though, so I'm not sure if they require a table or not . . .

A friend of mine won #10. He submitted the video quite a while ago, but hasn't heard anything back yet from the T11 people.

OHTP stands for a one-handed top palm.

You performed it nicely Lloyd, but the method just seems a bit obvious... Have you had problems with spectators seeing through the effect? And by the way, does anyone know how this is different from "The Ripple" that Asher teaches in his Le Asher notes? They look very similar...

By the way, the following was posted by Tom Isaacson over at the Cafe for anyone who doesn't frequent that board:

According to a thread on The Magic Cafe, Extreme Burn can be done as a face-to-face change as well, though I don't know if that particular method is actually taught on the DVD...

I see your point... For anyone who's wondering, you can see what Cameron is talking about by watching this video at the 1:10 mark.

Hey Cameron, Thanks for coming over here to try and clear some things up. Is there any way that you could post a performance video of the Underground Handling of Extreme Burn? That might go a long way in shining some light on the situation...

After reading this thread, I ended up picking up a small rug at Wal-Mart for $5 that works very well for what I need it for. Kind of lame, I know, but it works.
