    Coin to shoulder is pretty cool too.

    Beginner magician tips

    If you're talking about Russian Genius, while I do not want to promote any hate, I will tell you that he a) doesn't credit creators of moves 2) Isn't thorough with his teaching, that is... he won't mention the source, he won't mention finger positions explicitly, etc. Chris Ramsay, Xavior...

    Beginner magician tips

    That's easily arranged, I do have 10 magic books and haven't read any cover to cover, except Bobo's, RRTCM and Tom Ogden's. Now that you mention it, I do think that having books allows us to look up a method or effect quickly, without having to first buy the book, wait for its delivery or...

    Help Controlling Two Cards

    And you're doing this after just 4 weeks in magic. Yeah yeah, go on and stuff. I envy you. (jk)

    Help with a science project on distraction and attention

    I repeat what Christopher asked...What magic do you know currently? Because almost all magic effects somehow include the concept of selective attention. You might have to expose the method for the project though (unless the effect itself displays the concept of 'selective attention').

    Beginner magician tips

    Do you want to do false cuts which appear flourishy? Look up the Honeycomb by Chris Ramsay on You Tube. I suspect that Expert Card Technique has some false cuts...I'll need to confirm that later though. You might mean the Erdnase Change, deducing from the ''side of the deck'' and ''grab with...

    Indian magician feared drowned

    That's truly terrible. More so since I'm not only from India, but also from Bengal (the state where this happened). The sad part is that there are so many controversial and sad things happening right now, that this story of this magician isn't even seemingly important. It's as if deaths don't...

    Appearance for a magician

    This is true... while I may not be able to describe a Shin Lim performance, in my case at least its a result of sensory overload and brain-melting. But while this statement is true... I think this is a misplaced statement. It's not a wrong statement, per se. I would want the spectators to...

    Social Media Magic

    You're doing great. Continue please :-) The only thing, which you've definitely caught on by now, is to make the videos shorter. For example, I watched the latest upload of yours twice, but could only watch a few seconds of your first video, know why? Because I'm a typical-teenage with a very...

    Social Media Magic

    Colour changes work great for the camera. Since the time allowed to you is small, honestly, there's no time for a story-focussed performance. You can come up with something genius, of course, but online audience (where the performance time is about 15-30 seconds) usually forgives...

    Appearance for a magician

    A few questions:- 1) Is it true that the lesser hand-wear you have, the cleaner the magic looks, and maybe even less distracting? What if the hand-wear is simple? 2) I don't usually wear rings at all. But now and then, they seem to compliment the effect I'm performing (say if the effect...

    What will magic look like in the future?

    That will indeed be an amazing change, at least for those who hold magic in a higher, beautiful regard (almost romanticising it, but in a positive way). But then, hopefully Instagram and other social media platforms increase their video time limit, and You Tube stops discriminating against...

    What is the name of this move?!

    There's a chance that it's an someone else's move customised, tbh.

    What will magic look like in the future?

    As with most things undergoing shifts, we ultimately see the older versions making a comeback. I can guarantee there's at least somewhat of a chance that in the future, media will get oversaturated with super-visual magic to the point where they might start craving something more of a longer...

    How do I make a Cardistry video?

    You are my twin in the respect of recording method. So say hi to me XD #whenyoulovebooksandmagicatthesametime

    Magic is pointless.

    When I believe I have read someone's pulse to find out what their card is, they freak out. When I don't believe the card automatically turned over in the deck, they don't. (or maybe that's just my performance inefficiencies...regardless...) I guess it is weird how one first needs to believe in...

    Funniest things you've heard from people who aren't familiar with cards?

    Btw, just asking, isn't it just kinda annoying when you do a card effect, put all so much emotion and drama in it that Netflix would be jealous AND the spectators react AWESOMELY and behave as if they have found the Holy Grail...and then when someone asks them what happened, they look at their...

    Funniest things you've heard from people who aren't familiar with cards?

    Well, there are always people who see a card, 'remember' it (tell me nothing about how they dunno ANYTHING about cards) and before the reveal when they are asked what card it was, they're all like, "It was a seven." "Of?" "Uhh...you know that shape? Looks like a tree?" And then I'm on a...

    Magic Computer Project Ideas

    Well, I have to make a computer project in the form of a powerpoint, with a maximum of 10 slides. And I really , REALLY wanna make something regarding magic. In fact, I'm super fine if it touches Cardistry too. Do you guys have any ideas? I was thinking about the history of magic, or it's...
