By watching this and He says that in order to fool people you have to be natural and not use fancy moves, other lectures carefully it is easier to understand which are just exhibition of dexterity, not magic. than if reading the books, one of the few advantages of video.

Repeats, but really places ball anybody except DV do this. The timing on the in left hand, then uses Silent Mora wand spin to vanish. This looks impossible, wand spin is incredible – it looks like real magic. absolutely beautiful. This is explained only briefly. E/T Shows a ball vanish used by Nate Leipzig , were a ball is pushed down into the left fist using the right thumb, and when the right hand moves away, it surreptitiously catches the ball falling from the hand – similar dynamics to the wand spin vanish just shown. Gives more details of handling of the ball vanish, quoting Slydini, “You must believe you’re holding the ball in your hand. When you then open the hand, you’ve got an effect. If you don’t believe it yourself, you can’t expect the audience to believe it.” E/T Does a retention of vision vanish , were the coin is held clipped between forefinger Very clear details of handling. and middle finger of the right hand and apparently placed into the left hand.

G/A Asks for questions, but doesn’t even wait for them, saying, “OK, no questions, then we Very unfortunately the Professor doesn’t explain 1 pass to the poetry of magic. You know a very strange thing. A couple of days ago I was what he means by this, or what he thinks sitting upstairs in the lobby seat there, and a young fellow came up to me, and he said Hofzinser means by it. DV was an intuitive and you wrote an article about the poetry of magic, cards being the poetry of magic. So he very keen genius, but wasn’t an “intellectual”. I said what do you mean by that? And I said, well, those are not my words, those are the never heard him talk about such questions in words of the famous Johann Nepomuk Hofzinser. This young boy said to me, ‘What is depth. poetry about cards? I don’t see any poetry there.’ Poor boy, he was about 24 years old, In Genii for July 2011 I wrote an essay on the I said cards are the poetry of magic, don’t you know what poetry means? Poetry (and subject and have tried to answer the question I/unclear) can be poetic, there is a difference between prose and poetry. But he didn’t why card magic should be the poetry of magic. get the idea at all, he didn’t understand what I meant about cards being the poetry of magic. But anyway, I don’t want to discourse on this, I’ll take the two Jokers out of the deck…” T/S Says that he has no notes for the lecture, but that a little later he wants to answer That was the way he did most lectures, although questions to the best of his knowledge. he always had his great classics prepared. To watch him handle a double lift is a lesson in “I want to say something about one of the most terrible sins in our card magic.” Shows itself, but unfortunately he doesn’t comment on clumsy double lift , saying that if you turn over a card you don’t do it as if you were it. turning over a plank of wood. A card is a flimsy, light thing, you turn it over with a light Watch this several times… flip. Most are afraid of letting go of the double card and accompany the turnover with the hand – that looks terrible. “It gives me goose-pimples when I watch a person do that.” I wish I could have seen Daley! Dr. Daley said that you have to treat a card like a delicate flower. As far as I know, DV took piano lessons from Mentions Ray Grismer doing the double lift badly and saying to him, “Ray, do me a Grismer and in return taught him magic. favor, don’t tell anybody that I taught you how to do a double lift!” On the video this certainly looks very good, but if you hold a double just at its corner between Shows that a double card should be held with three fingers, but like a light, flimsy thing forefinger and thumb, the card has a tendency to at its inner right corner. split. So this handling is OK for parlor and stage, but not for close-up. Doesn’t do his DL from Stars of Magic . Check that out, it is very good. I didn’t understand how good that was until recently, shame on me… watch Jay Ose do it here (at 1:50 on timeline): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KQiuvX1xKI T Pull through shuffle . DV says he knows about 7 or 8 ways of doing the pull through He means “push through shuffle”, as opposed to shuffle. Mentions that in Stars of Magic he gave a simple push through shuffle (calls it “pull-out shuffle”, not a very good terminology “pull through”), but says he wants to mention a few important point on the regular push anyway… through: 2 • The visible “twisting” of the packets being pushes through each other has to be This is very well explained and filmed. avoided. In order to do this, the left packet is kept still , i.e. it doesn’t angle, it is the right packet that goes through the other. If you watch the top card of the pack, it never moves, and that’s what makes the illusion good. • Another point is to slightly lift the pushed through packet with the right hand and lightly slap it on the table, forward of the other packet, as if this packet came from the top, not from the center of the deck, you don’t just slide them out. Now demonstrates and explains his push through shuffle published in Ganson’s More Inner Secrets of Card Magic , p. 47, first paragraph. G When people applaud, he says, “No, this is very embarrassing, I don’t want to be He is referring to the fact that in the audience embarrassed.” there are some of the best in the business. Occasionally, when getting applause, he uses another favorite line of his: “Don’t Anyhow, you always learn from listening to a applaud. If you just nod your head that’s OK.” genius… T The best palm ever devised is the Erdnase top palm , because you can palm any number of cards as you put the pack down. The same action allows you to palm one card or several, even half the pack. Details the original version were the cards are picked up by the two little fingers, the right little finger leading. T Discusses the Erdnase bottom palm, 1 st method , in great detail, admonishing that the left fingers must not be moved.

The right hand then places its card back on the glass. This is shown in great detail. Emphasizes that the hands cross (actually they don’t cross , they meet) and that the card on top of the deck has to be pushed well off, so that it is ready for the change and the distance between the cards is minimized.

  • As We Kicked Off the New Millennium, Readers of This
    s we kicked off the new Amillennium, readers of this magazine cast their ballots to elect the ten most influential magicians of the 20th century. Although there were some sur- prises, few could argue with the top two — Harry Houdini and Dai Vernon. While scores of books have been written about Houdini, David Ben has spent the past five years prepar- ing the first detailed biography of Dai Vernon. What follows is a thumbnail sketch of Vernon’s remarkable life, legacy, and con- tribution to the art of magic. BY DAVID BEN Scene: Ottawa admired performers such as T.

  • Reception and Adaptation: Magic Tricks, Mysteries, Con Games
    Reception and Adaptation: Magic Tricks, Mysteries, Con Games by Joseph Daniel Culpepper A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto © Copyright by Joseph Daniel Culpepper 2014 Reception and Adaptation: Magic Tricks, Mysteries, Con Games Joseph Daniel Culpepper Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This study of the reception and adaptation of magic tricks, murder mysteries, and con games calls for magic adaptations that create critical imaginative geographies (Said) and writerly (Barthes) spectators. Its argument begins in the cave of the magician, Alicandre, where a mystical incantation is heard: "Not in this life, but in the next." These words, and the scene from which they come in Tony Kushner's The Illusion, provide the guiding metaphor for the conceptual journey of this dissertation: the process of reincarnation. The first chapter investigates the deaths of powerful concepts in reader-response theory, rediscovers their existence in other fields such as speech-act theory, and then applies them in modified forms to the emergent field of performance studies. Chapter two analyzes the author as a magician who employs principles of deception by reading vertiginous short stories written by Jorge Luis Borges. I argue that his techniques for manipulating the willing suspension of disbelief (Coleridge) and for creating ineffable oggetti mediatori (impossible objects of proof) suggest that fantastic literature (not magical realism) is the nearest literary equivalent to experiencing magic performed live. With this Borgesian quality of magic's reality-slippage in mind, cross-cultural and cross-media comparisons of murder mysteries and con games are made in chapter three.

  • Max-Malini-By-David-Ben-Courtesy
    BY DAVID BEN LE C CIR C HE MAGI T COURTESY OF COURTESY 44 GENII Malini. Max Malini. For many of us, particularly those of my generation who were introduced to Malini through the pages of the Stars of Magic and the works of Dai Vernon, the name Malini conjur- ers up the image of a bold, brash, itinerant magician—the last of the mountebanks—who performed parlor magic and close-up magic par excellence. With an abundance of audacity, broken-English, and a guttural voice with an Eastern-European accent, Malini toured the world, performing for the rich and famous. Even more intriguing, Malini had few confidants and what we know of him, and his work, is primar- ily from the previously mentioned works, par- ticularly those associated with Vernon and, in more recent years, from Charlie Miller and his protégé, John Thompson. OCTOBER 2012 45 MY OWN INTEREST AND UNDERSTANDING of Malini, however, took a seismic shift when I embarked on the journey that is Dai Vernon: A Biography. Vernon, of course, acknowledged Malini as being of the utmost influence. Malini was the “M” in the “J.K.L. and M,” the four per- formers—Jarrow, Keane, Leipzig, and Malini—who had a profound effect on Vernon’s development and his understanding of what constituted magic—ele- gant sleight-of-hand performed naturally but with lasting impact. As I sourced material for the Vernon biography I came a sizeable file on Malini and his magic. Hopefully, one across thousands of letters by and about Vernon, his influ- day, someone will write a book about Malini.

ON a certain day in the year 1843, the Count de I'Escalopier, a scion of the old regime of France, and a great lover of curios, was strolling along an unpreten- tious street of the Marais Quarter, of Paris. He stopped to look at /''' some mechanical toys displayed %*^ in the window of a dark little shop, over the door of which was painted the following modest sign: "M. Robert-Houdin, Pendules de Precision." This sign noted the fact that the proprietor was a watchmaker, and that his wares were distinguished for precise run- ning. What particularly attracted the nobleman's attention was a peculiar looking clock of clearest crystal that ran apparently with- out works, the invention of M. Robert-Houdin. The Count, who was a great lover of science amu- sante, or science wedded to recrea- tion, purchased the magic clock, and better than that made the acquaintance of the inventor, the obscure watchmaker, who was l"The cut represents the magic clock invented by Robert-Houdin about sixty years ago.

    DOMENICO DANTE FISM International President Dear President, Dear Friend in Magic, My philosophy has always been this: “facts speak for themselves”. You can check what I did in these three/six years, with the precious help of the Int. Vice Presidents and the Consultancy Groups, in my triennial report that will be sent to you soon. There is still a lot to do of course and this is why I am asking for the re-election (according to our Statutes for the last period of three years possible,) to accomplish something that is very important to me, since one of the main goals of FISM is to improve Magic and to raise the level of Magicians: - FISM Competition Compliance System (CCS) that will provide rules and services to Associated Societies to better Qualify their Competition and promote them as FISM Compliance Competition. - FISM Jury Qualification System (JQS) selecting and training qualified Judges to assure uniformed and high-quality judging all over the World. - To go on promoting FISM also outside the world of magic (including Academies and Universities). The Fism Board is already working on this matter and the success of the project matters to me. I want to thank you all for the support you gave to me and the Board during these years. It is a great reward for the really hard job we did. Kindest regards Domenico Dante DOMENICO DANTE FISM International President Dear President, Dear Friend in Magic, Ma philosophie a toujours été celle-ci : « Les faits parlent d’eux-mêmes ».
