    Calling all Canadians - Magic Special : CBC 12/09/09

    I liked how Greg's kindness came through. I liked how we got to see his family, as that is who Frewin is. I think he was a little nervous, but his choice of material was great. I liked how we got to see Lee Asher nodding his head a few times on camera...yeah, I saw you man. Hope it...

    Got a Problem

    Actually...to show my vanity, all I do is search my name. Actually, it helps me find old...sometimes as little as a day, posts that have been buried by "what is your fav deck" and "do you think you can lick Angels balls without him knowing" posts. I don't have a search...

    Bicycle 125 Review

    They are nice decks indeed...but, how bad do you wish that the card backs had the same sweet foil shine that the box has? Good review.

    card trix for newbies?

    I don't think Prae is saying don't buy the product here, but to create a solid foundation with educational material that will do that. I am not sure why you had to jump the gun on this one, as Prae was giving good advice on how to be good at what you do. If you limit your magic to stuff on...

    Going into a different field.

    Alright - when you deal with my points, I feel I have a right to discuss. 1) So - you bring up "the card vesus coin argument" - which is WAY off base - I think ACR's are illogical as well. This argument is about motivated movments and plot. You just compare one illogical thing against...

    My Latest Creation

    Here is my feedback: I had to watch the effect three times - the first two to understand what the plot was, and the last to watch the effect once I understood it...and by that time, I understood the method. This is where the music detracts - music is only good when the effect is clear...

    New magic from your favorite magician

    I would like to see Reid McClintock doing the Asher Twist Daniel Garcia doing Reformation David Roth do nickels to dimes Farquhar doing Russ Stevens act at FISM, but instead of boring back palming and manip, use an ACR routine...and win with it, oh wait...that may have happened. Just kidding...

    Evolutionary Idea

    There is an old saying: First time is a good trick - second time is a good lesson. Magic has a handful of effects that can be done under the command of "do that again" - some using the exact same method - like a bill change - some different - like an ACR. The thing is this - not ALL...

    Introduction?

    Haha, of RD - which brings me to a tip to make the most of this site. Ask questions on what you don't understand - share what you know, ask what you don't - knowledge trumps opinion. Hope you have fun and learn much in the threads

    Do you want to fool 98% or 100% of the time?

    Descartes, I think most of what you said is on the right track - and giving advice on this...well, it could be many books - and IT IS! However, I would say this. We have many phases in our magic - one of the first phases is that we just focus on fooling. When you do this early on, it is...

    Do you want to fool 98% or 100% of the time?

    Descartes - thanks for sharing - so let me ask you... NO insult intended: Do you know what it was - or how to choose magic or make your magic - so you can get more experiences like your 4th example? If you are unsure - let's disuss it in this thread - as I am sure you are NOT the only...

    Do you want to fool 98% or 100% of the time?

    I thiink you answered your own objection TheatreHead. People knowing about a prop doesn't make them "in the know" it just makes them aware. WHen I say informed people - I mean those that study magic. People know, or think they know, about certain principles, but then are fooled by them...

    Which group are you in?

    Funny guys! Great add Toby - le's talk more about this fourth group - what do you think the problem is with doing it this way? What are the issues? Strengths - weaknesses - solutions?

    Been Mentioned Before...

    I really agree with not rejecting the concept as long as the question holds merit. If the question is - what is your favourite magician...maybe we don't need to reinvestigate that, but many questions in magic can take different shapes of answers as we all progress and learn. Something new...

    Do you want to fool 98% or 100% of the time?

    Sadly - we can't account for exposure. Again - the goal is not to fool every person in the world. As, SOME of the information IS out there. However, most won't now how to look it up. Recently, I met a group of kids from a highschool. One kid blurted out, during an effect that used a double...

    Do you want to fool 98% or 100% of the time?

    Thanks JetEyeNight, I want to clarify - I am not trying to motivate people to be THE best, I am trying to get them to be THEIR best. I am not a "named" magicians, at least not to many - but I consider myself a high end magician. Not because of the sleights I do, or effects I know - but...

    Which group are you in?

    “Your tricks, and the manner in which you perform them, should be an expression of your life, not a substitute for one.” —Mike Close Close up magic presentations can be difficult...not because of creativity, or lack thereof, but because of the approach. Approaches that can be grouped. We...

    Do you want to fool 98% or 100% of the time?

    Did you take the test on-line? haha - where will you lead them...into virgin only territory?

    Do you want to fool 98% or 100% of the time?

    Exactly!! JTMorris - I understand what you are saying too - but my audiences don't consist of the creators of magic, we are talking lay audiences. Keokesilverfang said the rest perfectly. Thanks.
