    How good should a card magican be after 3 monthes

    You gave me a heart attack. A half-decent double lift.

    Which sleights use Retention?

    It's a bit difficult to digest the fact that our brains basically favour magicians in such a HUGE manner, by allowing retention in vision, yet we only use it for coin vanishes. So I attribute it to my incomplete knowledge in magic. Can anybody tell me what other sleights use retention of...

    Technical Problems

    Really some quick problems regarding certain sleights. 1) My retention vanish (1st version) from Roth's Expert Coin Magic looks, for the lack of a better term, very hands-y. As in, the retention itself works, but it looks pretty clear that I did ''something'' when I withdraw my right hand from...

    Name this card trick?

    Yes. I think Derren Brown said something similar about Oil and Water routines, about them not really being that interesting for laymen. Here's something very strange...I'm a magician. And yet oil and water isn't interesting in the least to me! :confused:

    Emotional Ideas

    It's more than okay I guess. Sometimes even the best end up saying the say-do-see patter in their performances, not realising it. As long as it's not too much, it's alright, in my opinion. Her performance, for me, is a huge example that somebody can know how something works, yet you can leave a...

    Name this card trick?

    For Oil and Water, check out One For The Road by Paul Zenon. Check these out. You can also check out classic books in card magic. Card College volume 3 has an oil and water routine too. A heads up though, it falls into the heading of 'classic card effects' and hence are difficult to...

    Emotional Ideas

    This effect didn't have any emotional patter. It didn't make me feel like my life has changed. It didn't make me feel like I've realised the purpose of loving and so on. But it's one of the most entertaining magic videos I've seen till date. This has no patter at all, but hits a homerun on...

    A very normal reaction. It's fine :)

    Lindholm

    That's great! :) Just make sure that you practice the opening of the move because really, breaking the deck into several packets with strange grips in the beginning is what can make a good move look clunky. Of course, you could just cut a video when you're publishing an out-and-out cardistry...

    Should we start to phase out the term "color change" for card transformations?

    Well, a lot of my friends aren't magicians, and they didn't think that 'colour change' is an offensive term. Of course, I don't see why it has to be said during a performance at all though. As for magicians, they will naturally think of card ''colour changes''. As @WitchDocIsIn said, I can't...

    False Rev cut

    I can't think of one, as of now. When I first read what you had to say, I thought that maybe it could be a magic ''trick'' in its own where after series of cardistry moves (all of which should be 'false') you could have the false Rev cut as a closure, and then amaze cardists and magicians by...

    Should we start to phase out the term "color change" for card transformations?

    To be honest, the Bhagwad Gita doesn't really say anything about a "Hindu" shuffle, so I think we'll be fine with that too. As for colour changes, I didn't know they genuinely were racially insensitive. I also think that it is pretty impossible to phase out a term so popular, ESPECIALLY when...

    I need help, I have a passion for being a magician

    True. Don't just see that you have 10 million alerts, feel happy about it and do nothing about it. I mean, feel happy. But also read. In general. In fact, often when I'm learning a sleight, a trick, checking a book out, I always end up with about twenty tabs on Chrome, which basically consist...

    I need help, I have a passion for being a magician

    Just remember. You'll need to invest more time than money. This might seem like good news to you, but remember, the time must be invested correctly. Something Dai Vernon, my favourite all-time close up magician said: If you don't like to practice, pick a different hobby. The disclaimer being...

    Do you Suspend Disbelief?

    If you didn't say this, I would've given up magic. I severely lack trust issues. True.

    It's fine. I must point out, in most of my threads I myself seem to veer away from the topic (I have the attention span of a goldfish (fruit fly, if you nitpick)). :D But then all discussions on theory seem to merge at some point (the vanishing poi-- forget it. Enough with bad puns.)! That's...

    Thanks a lot!! It's no Conjuring franchise but I try. :) Thank you so much! I'm glad that somebody so experienced thinks so. A random PSA in a random thread but, it's surprising what time limits (such as a one minute limit on Instagram) can do to improve your art and thirst for something more...
