Hope everyone is having a great summer weekend! This week, we wanted to host a new roundtable discussion podcast with Zach Heath, creator of Circuit - his debut effect on theory11 released just two weeks ago.

Each time we do this, we invite theory11 members around the world to submit questions in these forums, in this forum thread. Your questions can be about anything and everything - from Zach's inspirations in creation of Circuit, his favorite magicians, how he got started with ring magic, or anything else.

Limit three questions per member. Our deadline tonight is 10:00pm EST! At that time, we will begin recording a podcast to answer as MANY questions as we can. One random member whose question is asked during the podcast will take home a Circuit DVD and a deck of White Artisans, shipped anywhere in the world.

We're expecting the new shipment of Circuit in warehouse later this week - with additional size options available soon.

UPDATE! Time is UP, and the podcast has been posted! Listen to the podcast now, and find out the winner of this week's contest in the results posts here. Thanks to everyone who participated tonight!

1. What was your first original magic trick?

2. How long did it take to come up with Circuit?

3. If you can't choose ring magic, what kind of magic would you choose?


And also, do we win 1 White Artisan?
 
Zach,

1) i had never heard of you, do you have any other tricks out?
2) do you perform in shows, birthday parties or busk or none of them?
3) Who inspires you to create tricks?
 
1. Is there any significance behind the name Circuit?
2. What's a good starting point for getting into ring magic?
3. Do you have any other tricks you're working on that we'll see in the next few months?
 
Ring Magic vs Coin Magic (which is more versatile and impressive)?
Does looking like lex luthor help with your act?
how do you come up with different types of ring effects?
 
Who got you started into magic?

What did they do to inspire you to start doing magic?

Is ring magic your type, or do you do other magic as well?
 
What is your favourite method to spark your creativity when creating new efects?

Would you class Circuit as an opener or closer?

If you could make Michael James do one thing what would it be?
 
1. When you first developed Circuit, how long before you found the perfect ring? Or did you have that anyway?
2. Since Circuit is a one trick DVD, do you have other ring effects, whether created by you or others, that you perform for say a whole 'ring-centric' routine? - Basically, do you have a whole routine surrounding rings, if so what do you include?

3. I read that Circuit was 2 years in development, if so, how much did Circuit develop over time and why so long?
 
- What was the first trick you can define as your creation?

- What was the best/craziest reaction you've got with Circuit?

- Who would you say is/was your mentor in Magic?
 
1. Which type of magic do you think you are the most expert with?(Card,coin,stage etc...)
2. Who is your favourtie magician? And why? What can you learn from him?
3. When is your most awkward or embarassing moment when you perform?(For example a sudden forget of the routine, or a heckler)
 
Hello Zach

1. how many different sizes of rings did u use before you found the right size ring?

2. using your product should u get the size of your ring finger or index finger when ordering ring size ?

3. does the ring have to be a heavier ring?
 
-Do you think performing an effect with a normal object that isn't borrowed lessens the effect? I.e. using your own ring vs. borrowing a ring.

-What is your preferred medium for doing magic?

-If you had to show a single trick to showcase your personal magic, what would it be?
