    Damn, that's two of three for me. Not too shabby.

    Saturday Night Contest - The Magic-Con All Star Roundtable Discussion

    To Bill Kalush: You are one of magic's top historians. Based on what you know of magic's rich history, where do you predict magic as we perform it will be in fifty years. To Guy Hollingworth: What would you cite as making one card trick structurally stronger than another--in other words...

    Saturday Night Contest - The Bad Magic Picture Challenge!

    This one comes with a story: I was digging around through my old kindergarten pictures and found this relic. This is, as best as I can recall, is my six-year old depiction of the first ever magic show I saw. All I remember was that I was brought up on stage to help the magician out with the...

    Saturday Night Contest - Collective Brainstorm : Round Two

    Not exactly the most practical routine out there, but I think it has some interesting ideas in there. Uses four out of the five permissible items. http://www.vimeo.com/8007163

    Steve Reynolds has now arrived at Vanishing Inc.

    I was privileged enough to be able to meet Steve over the summer, and let me tell you--there is no B.S. here. The guy knows his stuff. He is an amazing thinker and it shows in his magic. If my word means anything (and who knows these days?) it worth it to everyone interested in card magic...

    Saturday Night Contest - Luke Dancy Roundtable

    1. Are there any things to keep in mind when showing a magic trick on television? Do certain tricks work better than others? 2. What characterizes your magic? In a word? In a sentence? In an oration? 3. What sorts of themes to you like to include in your magic and/or presentations?

    Being More Dedicated

    This is the last thing I have to say (and I didn't even say it): “I think there’s an association of magic as some sort of child’s entertainment. I really look at this as serious business. The fact that almost every kid of a certain age has done magic at some point in their life is fine, but...

    Being More Dedicated

    Thank you, first of all. I appreciate that very much. I'm not trying to say that the community has let me down. I am just personally in a place in my life in which I feel the need to separate myself from everyone else in terms of how I develop myself and my magic (if that makes any sense).

    Being More Dedicated

    I recently noticed a trend. In the past few weeks, I have been posting less and less on internet forums. As a result, I've had a lot more time to practice. I have begun to practice in three two-hour blocks every day. My magic has taken quantum leaps. Recently, I realized that a liberal...

    New theory11 Moderator Announcement - ZachMonky

    From what I understand, Zach is a very intelligent talented individual. I don't know him personally, but I trust JB's judgment. In regard to the previous forum activity you cited, I am quite familiar with it. That was then. This is now. Given this new role, I am sure Zach will certainly...

    What do you answer when somebody asks: How do you do that?

    Oh. OK. It's not like I spend any time or effort coming up with things that work for me in my performances, anyway. Coming up with your own material is overrated anyway...
