EMC kept their promise!

Who would have thought the DVDs that were promised by the makers of the Essential Magic Conference are actually arriving. Took them a while but now they live happily ever after!

The ShockWave

So Peter Loughran has done it again

40 seconds before the video gets to the point,
intuitive solution is the modus operandi,
not new, as Robert Houdin even did something like that (even using electricity)
choppy movements telling everyone what is going on,
big fat suspicious board
*sigh* why does he even try?



just two hundred bucks...

Or you strap a magnet to your knee. Works with any surface, full control and way cheaper.

PS: Is that grin considered being smug?

Magic Regrets 06

WMF Dana Fleming

It is always interesting to know why an experienced magician, like Dana Fleming exposes magic. Why? Really why? What interest could an experienced, full time working magician from Virginia have to raise another generation of competing magicians? Is it about wanting to teach? If so why does anyone want to teach?

I think it is to show off. To show that you are cooler than the rest by being to able to pull of certain sleights. Maybe you don't get enough credit for your skill, that needs to be hidden. After all that is the nature of magic.

Like this:


Dana Fleming may want to teach magic. But this is just exposure. How do I know this? Well, he is also one of the moderators (name: magick) of Learn Magic Tricks Forum the biggest magic exposure forum in the world. (Owned by David Castle) So that alone removes any doubt in my mind that he has "serious" motifs.

Kind of said, that Dana Fleming doesn't get enough recognition that he "has" to get that sort of fame. Dana... here is one thing you can be proud of. This weeks magic failure award is yours.

Observe this!

Ever noticed that magicians with large hands create lots of methods and sleights and those with small hands create plots and premises?
