    Ethics and Methods

    Before I answer your question, and completely disagree with R1.... which is a very rare case indeed, let me ask you to define "What is magic?" Magic is NOT the trick. Let that sink in. Magic... Is... Not... The... Trick! Magic, or what people will associate as magic, is the experience...

    Guerrilla magic alive or dead?

    I'm going to agree with what has been said above: There are still youtube channels out there that promote that kind of performing. So I don't think that it's "dead" per-say. Just out of vogue. To that end I also want to add that there's a great deal of difference between performing for...

    Manipulation Deck?

    I think everyone just uses Nielson's. McBride uses his own brand which are standard custom printed poker sized cards.

    Rare Cards

    Historically he didn't. The quote comes from the Musical. But there are still pleanty of people willing to believe that he did say it so it kind of ironically brings it back full circle.

    Who is the true expert at the card table?

    Yeah, I called BS when I heard that theory as well but then it was pointed out to me that the writing style shifts mid way. And it made sense. There really should be a movie about it. It's got mystery, intrigue, and you could do a LOT with it.

    Who is the true expert at the card table?

    Erdnase wasn't a single person. Clearly the book was written by at least two people, if not more. One of the authors was obviously a card cheat, and the other a magician.

    Rare Cards

    I have a rare foil Charizard. It's a buyers market kid. You'll get whatever people will give for them. The value of custom decks are artificially created and controlled by the companies that make them because they know the marks will gladly step up and throw money at them for the decks. P.T...

    Thoughts on the Now You See Me films?

    The first one wasn't bad. My only complaint was that none of the protagonists were particularly likable let alone relatable. But I guess they had to cut corners somewhere to make room for all those action scenes. Who needs to pay for good writers anyways? The second one was utter shyte. I...

    Demonic magicians?

    Surprisingly enough, of all the people out there, Christians generally have the least educated knowledge about what a demon is, isn't, what it can and can't do, the names and hierarchy, and how to handle them. It's like they throw the word around for anything that they don't understand, don't...

    Who is the true expert at the card table?

    I am Erdnase. Bow before me. It doesn't matter who is what. The only thing that matters is that you are the best at what you do. Quit living as if you are in the shadow of others. Start performing like you're the one casting all the shadows.

    Draven Reviews: Ash Paper by the Other Brothers

    Post Post Edit: I want to discuss the nature of the gimmick because I've had a lot more experience working with this prop since the time I wrote the initial review. I want to discuss the angle sensitivity of the gimmick. You can NOT show the flash paper on both sides cleanly without doing...

    Sharpie Magic... Thoughts?

    I think the editing was great on this video! The tenki vanish was telegraphed, but I didn't catch the ditch. So props there. This is going to be nit picking a bit, so please take it with a grain of salt: The beginning you wrote "transpo", which to magicians means something. But to a laymen...
