learning

TL;DR I want to get the most from magic books as I think I'm going about using them wrong and I'm not finding them very helpful. So I've been doing magic for a few years now and I like to think myself as reasonably experienced. When I work I do close up, mainly with cards. And I've dabbled...

If a spectator asks you to teach them a magic trick, do you? I almost always do. Usually this isn't when people ask "how do you do that?" it's just when they ask "can you teach me a trick?". It usually seems to come from a place of genuinely wanting to learn something cool to show their friends...

How useful would it be if Theory11 had an app. It could keep track of all of your videos, orders, and refills. It could update you on your shipments and forum replies/posts. You could have access to incredible magic with just a click. Thoughts?

So I have heard, and so have most, of the Spanish School of magic (methodology, Psychology etc). And I can see why people love it. But I personally have fallen in love with watching French magicians and their styles. I was wanting to know if anyone could list me some English sources of French...

I've been doing magic for six years and I often find it hard to learn new effects or sleights that I am interested in, even after all of this time. This was especially difficult when I was first starting. With this in mind a few fellow students and entrepreneurs at Northeastern University are...

Junior year kicked in, so my activity on here abated, but I'm glad that there's always something being discussed that I can jump back into. I made this video as a sort of "progress report" after learning some cardistry for 9 months (I hail from card magic so I had a rudimentary foundation)...
