I think it's just chance that has led to dover publishing so many magic books. Whatmore...dover has mostly related the classics of magic. There are many magic books out there not published by dover. I did not understand...do you want to know which books will give you best advice and tricks for...

Almost all pick-up lines related to magic are trash... *starts sobbing uncontrolably* @010rusty ...you tell him! *starts wailing due to extreme sadness*

Okay, you've skipped the part where I asked you if you performed cardistry enough to know its effects but...anyways... That's...that's exactly what...well, anyways... See, if I never learnt piano, but I used a finger exercise routine to help me stretch my fingers...wouldn't it help me in the...

Say, you just have a reputation for being a good magician among your colleagues, friends, relatives, etc... You HAVEN'T performed a single trick for them, but are just hanging out, you know, talking, joking, and stuff. Somehow...maybe a recent tweet of Rowling's, maybe a Sherlock Holmes' story...

That's what I said man! I said that playing a piano helps in dexterity, did I not? See? I just meant that learning piano does not help in doing the werm or something but the dexterity DEVELOPED as a result of playing the piano helps in it. My whole point is that improved sleight of hand...

Yes it will! And that's my point! That it will help but only if we use a specific type of DL and favour a specific type of second deal. A specific cardistry move will help in a specific sleight only if they are closely related. Other than that you'll get help only from the dexterity you...

It will increase those things but...I don't think it will do so for magic. I mean, that's like asking "Can mastering the second deal help me to smooth down my top change?" It's two different things...maybe not as different as a second deal and a top change but relatively separate fields...

I think, a bit of both. But it also depends on the situation in the sense that if you are doing magic for a camera, by all means use the stupidest gimmicks...switching them on camera is not much of a problem :D I use few gimmicks as I wanna end completely clean, like @danielsutton95 ... It's...

Let's see...well... One to screw it in, one to help him, one who is a novice and wants to learn how to do it himself, one to help using the tools. In short, four. But no one sees the third...;)

Five. One to figure out the tools needed, one to figure out how the tools should be used and where they go, one to copy it, one to revolutionise the method, and one to film the whole process and upload it to You Tube.

I have a feeling your interpretation is pretty much correct. I mean, it does not have to be a 100% borrowed-items-show...but the main parts should be borrowed and the pen or sharpie of course, can be your own. I think 'organic magic' is more of an idea and a presentation style. Even a card...

I watched Anna D and was introduced to her work just yesterday! Gosh...it feels so good to be able to relate to stuff. Ah...when you feel happy that you can do the werm and then see people throwing, cutting, flipping, flicking cards in the craziest ways possible ways... Life's harsh.

Ticks of the Mind and Cconfessions of a Cconjuror... They are dope!

See, good and bad is a very relative topic. I see so much hate here for Criss Angel (light hate, not the hardcore one) but I never classified him as a 'bad' magician. On the other hand, some people think I am not a good magician...I don't know how one can even think like that... Jokes...

When something doesn't suit your persona, it just...doesn't, you know? Like, say Eugene Burger did the French Kiss... See what I mean? That being said, I feel it's not the times that have changed, but some magicians' mentalities. Basically, they have two VERY WRONG ideas... 1) They are the...

Penn and Teller- 'Cuz those guys *are* the magic. Dai Vernon- He is a genius...and his knowledge remains unparalleled. Dynamo-He brought me into close-up magic and made me realise I don't need huge boxes or glamorous assistants to do magic. Asad Chaudhary (founder of 52 Kards)- For a nice...

One can of course...everything is possible, and as cliche as that sounds, it's true. (Other than pushing toothpaste back into the tube...that's impossible.) However, I think the problem would be, "Too much of something" I cannot help feeling that after BOOMING business in the first few weeks...
