Now,alot of people are of the opinion that this genre of magic doesnt really exist.
And I agree.Wayne has discussed this on a previous daily update
My question is if any of you actually try or have done 'street' magic.
And I mean without a camera.
I have and do close-up magic outside of paid gigs(I dont like saying 'street magic',it sounds pretentious to me)
But I dont really go up and just ask people to show them something,If I am at a mall or busy streetcorners I usually sit on a bench and either perform a small visual piece of magic with ordinary objects or loops or bring out a deck of cards and do simple flourishes.This gets attention quick.If I overhear them comment on what im doing or,even better,if they approach me,I start to perform for them and to me it seems more comfortable for them if they are intrigued beforehand instead of catching them offgaurd and just immediatley asking if they wanna see something.
So again,have any of you actually performed 'street' magic and if you do how?
