Just a reminder to keep ALL posts as courteous, respectful, and professional as humanly possible. We welcome all discussion and debate - so long as it's intelligent, proactive, and civil. Thanks guys! :cool:

Guys, Why is it that every intelligent debate between members (as of late) has turned into a screaming match full of insults? We have never asked that all our members on everything - naturally, there will be differing thoughts and opinions - but please remember to remain respectful...

Definitely check out the Psychological Subtleties series - I can't recommend them enough. In addition, pick up some classic books that cover the fundamentals in mentalism (13 Steps to Mentalism and Practical Mental Magic, namely). Much of what Derren performs has its roots in these texts; don't...

Adam, Welcome to the forums man. We have an extremely knowledgeable and diverse community that is willing to offer a helping hand whenever the opportunity strikes. If you ever need any assistance, you can reach me 24/7 via PM. Always here to help. Be sure and familiarize yourself with our...

As this thread has steered way off topic - and at the request of several users who contacted me privately - I'm going to go ahead and close it. Please continue any debates about items unrelated to the discussion at hand via PM, in the future. Thanks in advance guys. Back to the magic. Are you...

Unfortunately, this is the risk one takes in entering an amateur contest that isn't authorized by any official business or reputable organizer. Sadly, it happens often. That said, as this really isn't a topic that relates to magic discussion, I went ahead and moved the thread to the Product...

Per the request of the thread's creator, I'm going to go ahead and close this. Please continue any conversation relating to this topic via PM. Thanks guys!

Just wanted to chime in and say that we most definitely take all of these ideas into consideration. I'd love to hear each of your thoughts on the pros and / or cons of a Presentation and Performance oriented subforum. From there, we can gauge whether or not we feel the area would thrive and -...

You will have to apply some slight force when using the gimmick to ensure proper visual impact. Try breaking it in a bit before using it in performance - this may aid in ease of use. For replacement gimmicks, contact our support team directly HERE. We'll get you setup. :cool:

Unfortunately, the Split Spades : Lions are currently unavailable until further notice. Congrats to anyone who was able to get their hands on 'em before they sold out. Be sure and stay tuned to both our Twitter and Facebook pages for any updates on availability. We'll keep you guys posted! :)

Couldn't have said it better myself. Many of our artists' livelihood depend solely on the sale of their original creations. I don't think providing limited information on what legally constitutes a copyrighted work acts as any justification for the unethical distribution of said material. Many...

No worries - all submissions are individually moderated to ensure the media section doesn't get cluttered with videos that may not be relevant / might expose a particular method or technique. That said, if your video meets our guidelines and is suitable for posting it should be up in the coming...

Amazing submissions tonight guys (and gals)! You all represented a variety of backgrounds with differing stories and it was truly refreshing to read through all of your entries. Each of you deserves an honorable mention. The judging process was extremely difficult, but the winner tonight is...

Earlier this week, we posted a special bulletin asking all of our members to share what the art of magic has done for you, or to you. Specifically, we want to know what effect magic has had on YOU. How has learning magic changed you? How has magic - and how has theory11 specifically - directly...

Be sure to type EVER in all caps - exactly as depicted in the original post - to see the listing. On a similar note "coolest people in the world" should lead you directly to our About page. Back to the magic fellas. ;)

Just wanted to stop by and wish you a Happy Birthday man! Hope all is well. :)

Two books I highly recommend: The Full Facts Book of Cold Reading by Ian Rowland The Definitive Book of Body Language by Allan and Barabara Pease More than enough information to get you rollin'. Hope this helps! :)

First and foremost, we'd like to say that each submission tonight was fun, unique, and memorable - exactly what we were looking for. Before we announce the winner, we'd like to extend honorable mentions to a few members in particular: TheCardician, jprace, and gio - Be sure and check out each...

Great question. To clarify, the performance itself should use the technology.

Earlier this week, theory11 had the opportunity to perform at one of the largest technology conferences in the world. Our goal was to demonstrate a piece of magic that was fun, offbeat, memorable, and (most importantly) had a presentation centered around technology. The result was an incredibly...
