Misdirection is a huge part of magic and few have mastered it, and many of us lack it, but once used properly it can be our bestfriend.
"The human mind can concentrate on only one thing at a time. The magician uses this to manipulate the "victim's" idea of how the world is supposed to be.
One of the most important things to remember when thinking about misdirection and magic is this: a larger movement conceals a smaller movement."
How do you use misdirection in magic, or do you even use it at all?
What do you feel is important when using misdirection, and what to keep in mind while using it?
Please discuss, there is no wrong answer.
