    Let's Talk About Stealing

    But what if you take the general concept of Starry Starry Night, with the curved brush strokes and yellow-orange stars (idk I'm not a painter, sorry) and paint a new piece that is clearly different from it, but similar. The question is, can we be inspired by someone's routine and performance to...

    Cards

    Also, about the Costco thing, online they're only selling them in packs of 3 Bricks at $48, but I've seen them sell individual bricks in stores for $15 or $16 too (it used to say $15 in my message then I changed it to $16, and then thought about adding this bit, but the time to edit had...

    Cards

    With a ton of use, it happens to all cards eventually. If you wanna be super careful while handling cards, you can take precautions like washing your hands with soap and water before using them, only using them on a clean surface or performance pad, storing them in their tuck case when not in...

    Let's Talk About Stealing

    Yea, it seems I misunderstood the point, I thought you were talking about an effect someone does but also publishes. I guess the way you're looking at it does change things, as at that point they are either directly ripping off the performance, or they had the opportunity to ask permission but...

    I totally dropped my ring in someone’s drink! Lol

    That'd be awful. Even worse if there was no glass and it rolled away...

    Let's Talk About Stealing

    I always thought that's how it should be, at least for television or for when you know you're actively going to perform it on a camera (i.e. you're going to post it yourself or you're doing it for a camera with prior knowledge). If you're just going out to perform here and there in real life, I...

    I totally dropped my ring in someone’s drink! Lol

    The way you went still and just stared at the glass after and dropped your hands speechless was hilarious. Cool thing they were good sports about it. Nice performance by the way, they were still entertained in the end.

    Best magic loops?

    Do you have any tips for making your own loops. I've had a spool of Mesika Elastics from I think my first magic purchase, I've tried a ton of times, always end up not being able to do it, getting super close, breaking them, getting frustrated, making a few, breaking them before I can do...

    College Essay

    Yea it might be a real big issue already since he posted it here BEFORE he submitted it. I remember reading a story (no clue if it's true or not, but I'm willing to believe it is) about someone in college who was so excited to share the essay they wrote for their class that they went to some...

    College Essay

    Hey man, this was awesome, but there area few things I would change. Firstly, I'd add a full introductory statement. Normally, we're told not to start with a single word or a question as you did here. Maybe make things a bit more concise. I don't think "cardistry" has to be capitalized unless at...

    How do I get used to cards?

    Eventually, you'll get it. It just takes time. @Scodischarge is absolutely right, for a spring, if you need a visual aide other than the pictures you'd find in a book, YouTube is very useful for these smaller things.

    Ed Marlo

    Beautifully done. If it was real life and I didn't know what was happening I would've never have caught it.Of course, that's different when a camera comes into play. I love RCT because it not only teaches you how to do a move in depth, but also where, when, and how to time it so you get the...

    Magic

    Sponge Balls are my favorite hands down. Great reaction, easy and fun to do, and you can take it so many places. It's also very interactive. Instead of seeing the effect, the spectators can literally feel it happen in their hands. In terms of card effects, I love full deck color changes and...
