I have a question for all you 'engineers'. Pros and novices, young and old.
I was looking on the Wire and all
over the internet for various tricks and methods and props to utilize (yes, I am looking OUTSIDE of my regular Tenyo channels).
Because why not?
And I realized that there is a very, extremely slim chance that I'll ever engineer something of my own other than using what is out there and making my own presentations. I know I've only been in magic for a year, but I don't have that 'engineering mind'.
Before you think this is a sad sack post, hold on. It's not going that way.
The question I am going for is this: Is it possible to be considered a 'magician'. Or a 'true magician' if you never engineer an original trick?
