Enlighten me, what are the different goals between mentalists and magicians? You seem to be implying that magic is lower then mentalism presentation wise. Furthermore great story, everyone loves a cheeky prank. *Sarcasm*
"And as I'm journeying into the realm of mentalism, the perspective has shifted from being "look down at my hands, you'll see magic in my cards" into "look into my eyes, and I'll change everything you believe in...With just tricks, you CAN NOT show them something that disproves or questions their beliefs"
"What presentation you focus on will Never be the focus of your tricks. Taking the example trick of the 4 Queens, the focus will always be the 4 Queens...For Mentalists, presentation is Everything."
"Making it more about the Mentalist than about the sleights he does."
"And about the ratio comparison - it's not just about the ratio of tricks to presentation, it's more about WHAT you presenting. Magic is presenting something you can do, mentalism is presenting something about the Mentalist and, in some instances, about the spectators themselves."
ok i was reading the same posts as everybody else then. ok, i dont feel like a total jerk anymore.
