Organic by Dan and Dave Buck

[Michael Kras]

Anybody pick this up yet? I just bought it, and my initial thoughts are that this ebook is very inspiring, fascinating, and creative. It's essentially a look at the art of improvising magic and teaches 15 effects that Dan and Dave literally came up with on the fly. Behind each effect, they tell the story of how it came to be. Some of the improvised miracles are quite practical and others aren't. But they would do amazingly well in the right place at the right time. Places such as a fast food restaurant, breakfast house, laundromat, and shopping center are the settings of where these effects came to be. It's an interesting collection and really gets you thinking. After reading this ebook, I am certainly inspired to think more about improvising magic.

This is not a review perse, just some brief thoughts. Any others?

Sounds really cool, I reckon it could really help me get some fresh effects. I'll wait for a review though, before thinking about getting hold of it. I want to know more about the effects.

the credit card one sounds cool but is it practical?

I don't own this ebook... but it looks interesting. I would think that none of the material has to be practical, because of the nature and focus of the book. Seems to me that it would be a more inspirational read, as opposed to a book with a few good tricks. It sounds very good.

I just ordered the special edition Booklet version. 100 Signed Copies.

I guess they will be printed in a nice quality booklet, autographed and shipped out.

Il give my review once it arrives. Scheduled to ship on the 21st.

As much as I love Dan and Dave gotta say this isn't there greatest work, infact I wasd a little disapointed... There are some nice ideas! Ideas that I think I'll take inspiration and make tricks simil;ar to those taught.
Manakin for example!
Maybe it's not my style, maybe thats it... Id love to hear what others though or am I the only one disapointed by the contents.
