3-what are your plans for the future other than your new project. (ie. lectures, live performances, etc.)
 
Wow, this should be a great one, here are my questions...

1) I think it has come apparent to most of us that your one of your best creations is TORN and the up and comming TORN TOO. It just so happens that these are both torn and restored cards and my question to you is why do you like this plot so much?

2) What tricks are going to be on your up and comming DVD entitled BENTTOUCHSLINK?

3) When growing up and being an up and comming magician, did you believe that you had something different then every other magician in the world?


Good luck everyone and may the best man win!
 
1. If you had a soundtrack to your magic, what songs would be on it?
2. Is there any effect, slight, or move that you have been unable to master?
3. Which do you feel is more conducive to learning magic: books, videos, or should they both be utilized?

I just wanted to add as a side note, when I first saw a video of white or wheat, I absolutely flipped out trying to figure it out!
 
How hard was it to go from a magician just breaking into the art to the professional status you’ve achieved today, and was there ever a point in time where you lost interest in magic for one reason or another?
 
1)what is the funniest memory you have with a member of the T11 staff

2) what is the most recent magic product (produced by someone else) that you have purchased

3) what is your favorite type of audience to perform for? aka age group, location, etc
 
Whats it like being a role model to thousands of people? Knowing there are people out there that want to be just like you? Is there a lot of pressure involved?
