    Who here actually does xcm as a performance art?

    well I do agree but in martial arts, it is the expression of the self from one's body. If everyone stuck to their training halls enclosed that would make sense, but worldwide competitions display this art form to the entire world. Painting art and keeping it in your house could be the same ego...

    Misdirection

    i'll answer your first question with another question. Shouldn't magicians have to use misdirection practically always? And the second question... I use it when the trick requires it, of course.

    Is it good to be a bit too "flashy"

    I've learned the opposite to be true, the audience is more impressed. Only if there is substance in the magic of course. If it is your style to be suave with card magic and you are almost exclusively a card magician then you SHOULD display finesse with a deck of cards. For my character however...

    Magic Books that are now on DVD

    I wouldn't be suprised if he didn't know how to read. I've been to my sisters 9th grade high school class and when they have to read aloud...I shudder. Tell him to just read the books. If he is so enamored with technology, then he needs a nook at least. Back in the day EVERYONE used to read...

    Who here actually does xcm as a performance art?

    The case wasn't about it being art or not. It was about it being a performance art or merely that it should be performed. Thats what we are TRYING to do,get people to perform this performance art. or what many people to consider this a performance art. Steerpike-dead week at college is giving me...

    Getting back into magic

    well if you got time now then simply get back in to where you left off. Reflect on what needs to be improved and work from there, pretty simple. It's not like you have to start the cycle all over again, you should be able to pick it up pretty quick after only 4 months.

    Powerful, Easy, Direct Mental Magic

    Though at lot what he said really is a reflection of our young generation. A lot of them have poor reading skills and think that reading is a waste of time. I see this in alot of young magicians who want to get the DVD version of everything. I've heard the excuse " I don't have time to read"...

    It's not about being prepared, its the principle of the thing. Maybe Im coming from my experience as a filmmaker and observations of the upper crust of hollywood. They try to make a wh0re out of you and I don't play like that. Sure I can make a few quick tricks on the spot. But for something on...

    Shouldn't have gone. I don't let myself get treated that way by clients. And I don't like half assing performances just because I need the money. Its never happened to me because I haven't allowed it to.

    help with preforming cardistry

    how experienced are you in cardistry? All I can say really is focus on the task at hand, everyone is there to cheer for you. not against you. What works for me sometimes is i go up to my crowds and conversationally say hi, wave to people, get psyched up to perform for them.

    GoTyme, Cardistry Debut

    It simply wasn't funny. Humor is hard to convey succesfully on film. Films like The hangover make it seem easy.( though that movie was really Dude, where's my car? in disguise)

    Who here actually does xcm as a performance art?

    Hopefully I'll have the video up by tomorrow afternoon or wednesday at the latest. Im thinking of doing it in a interview format. Perform a little and then ask the audience two questions. Would they be interested in seeing more of this as entertainment? And, could it be considered a performance...

    GoTyme, Cardistry Debut

    Draw up storyboards and have a good outline of how you want your short to be. This was very disorganized and incoherent. There was no direction and whatever you were trying to express was lost in poor editing, sound, and directing. You played an entire song throughout the entire video that...

    Who here actually does xcm as a performance art?

    Whether cardistry was art was never an issue, whether it was a PERFORMANCE art was my question. Sure magic and cardistry can be combined, but cardistry always seems to take a backseat when magic is involved. Yes, art changes and its meanings change throughout the course of history but there are...

    This is a topic about magic...

    These pups are not on the same level as the lycanthropes of lore. Please tell me your joking, the entire series is awful as film and as written word. Also, how do you relate this to our magic? If you had talked about harry potter, the illusionist, hellboy, pans labyrinth, it would have made...

    What is your favorite deck?

    There's already a thread in this similar matter put up quite recently. Maybe retarded was a strong word. I think what he meant was unnecessary and irrelevant. People are trying to keep the forums amongst magicians in a progressive state. Threads like this are just not useful in any way. But...
