What is wrong with Jay Sankey's channel? 52 kards?
Isn't that better than the opposite?
Why shouldn't magicians be in charge of what tutorials are on the internet?
Why should this be someone who is simply looking for attention?
Like I am saying, YouTube is like a library. But a big library. Library that can reach many people.
Why not have pro magicians teaching real magic mainly for people interested?
And I repeat, if a layman were to stumble upon such videos, subscribed, took the time to heed the instructions, perform, get reactions, get excited... then he is not a layman anymore, but a magic enthusiast.
People want to learn magic. That is what YouTube is for. YouTube is #1 for how to things. Why not have someone knowledgeable?
As for my comparisons with medicine. I do understand that magic methods need to be secret and medicine's do not. But what I wanted to show you, was that something being on the internet does not necessarily mean seen be everyone.
Like I illustrated, with tons of medicine videos. They are on the YouTube... Yes they are on the internet, TV etc. But you have not google it. Until now, how many of you had heard of Fatal Familial Insomnia? That is my point. It is on YouTube but you do not know or care about it too much.
Let me ask all of you a question. Was the protein only hypothesis confirmed in prion diseases? It sounds like a weird question right?
How would it sound, if you asked a layman to demonstrate the Chinese Linking Ring sleights used by Dai vernon? Same as that prion question sounds to you!
We've all answered these questions... multiple times...Yes... I read all of your responses...
Thank you.
So what exactly is the problem. All of you ( @RealityOne and @ChristopherT etc)... talk about how easy it is to find stuff and then just stop. What is the problem exactly? Heckling? Why? Do you not get payed if someone tries heckling you? If you are not performing for money, why perform for a heckler?
Now another point that you guys all forget is... I am NOT arguing that this is moral or ethical.
But the internet brings on change. As books brought on change... And changing attitudes about magic brought change? Why shouldn't think opportunity be embraced?
But to get to the heart of this question. Where or how is magic affected (significantly)? Magic is at its most popular. At least this century for sure! How is it being destroyed or ruined?
Which famous effect has been stopped because too many people knew about it? That is what I do not understand.
Classic effects seem more popular. Linking rings, cups and balls, ambitious card etc. are being performed all the time? These are some of the most used effects in modern magic despite being exposed countless times countless ways?
How is exposure a significant problem?
