DOMENICO DANTE FISM International President Dear 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 ». Vous pourrez vérifier tout ce que j’ai accompli durant ces trois/six ans, avec la précieuse collaboration de mes deux vice-présidents et des Consultancy Groups, dans mon rapport triennal que vous recevrez sous peu. Il y a encore beaucoup à faire, j’en suis pleinement conscient, et c‘est la raison pour laquelle je me représente pour la réélection au poste de président (selon nos statuts pour une ultime période de trois ans). Je désire en effet finaliser quelque chose qui me tient particulièrement à cœur, étant donné que l’un des principaux objectifs de la FISM est de promouvoir la magie et d’élever le niveau des magiciens : • Le FISM Competition Compliance System (CCS), lequel prévoit les règles et les services applicables aux membres associés pour leur offrir un système de qualification officiel aux concours et les agréer en tant que FISM Compliance Competitors ; • le FISM Jury Qualification System (JQS), lequel sélectionne et instruit les juges qualifiés pour assurer un jugement uniforme et de haute qualité dans le monde entier , sans oublier, bien sûr, la continuation de la promotion de la FISM également hors du monde de la magie, notamment auprès des universités. Le Board de la FISM travaille déjà d’arrache-pied sur ces questions d’importance dont le succès m’est cher. Je profite de l’opportunité qui m’est offerte ici pour vous remercier du soutien que vous avez octroyé au Board de la FISM tout au long de ces années. C’est une belle récompense pour tout le travail que nous avons accompli. Cordialement, Domenico Dante DOMENICO DANTE Presidente Internacional FISM Querido Presidente, Querido amigo de la Magia, Mi filosofía siempre ha sido esta: "los hechos hablan por sí mismos". Puedes verificar lo que hice en los tres años / seis años, con la preciosa ayuda del Int. Los Vicepresidentes y los Grupos de Consultoría, en un informe anual que les serán enviados pronto. Todavía hay mucho que hacer, por supuesto, y es por eso que estoy en busca de la reelección (de acuerdo con nuestros Estatutos para el último período de tres años posible) para lograr algo que es muy importante para mí, ya que uno de los principales objetivos de FISM es mejorar la Magia y elevar el nivel de los Magos: - Sistema de Cumplimiento de Competencia FISM (CCS) que proporcionará reglas y servicios a las Sociedades Asociadas para calificar mejor la competencia y promover la competencia masiva de cumplimiento de FISM. - Sistema de Calificación de Jurado FISM (JQS) que selecciona y capacita a jueces calificados para garantizar juicios de inteligencia uniformados y de alta calidad en todo el mundo. - Seguir promoviendo FISM también fuera del mundo de la magia (incluidas Academias y Universidades). La Junta de Fism ya está trabajando en este asunto y el éxito del proyecto es muy importante para mi. Quiero agradecerles a todos por el apoyo que me dieron a mí y al Consejo durante estos años. Es una gran recompensa por el trabajo tan duro que hicimos. Saludos Cordiales Domenico Dante DOMENICO DANTE FISM International President Sehr geehrter Präsident, lieber Zauberfreund, Es war stets meine Philosophie: Fakten sprechen für sich! Was ich in den letzten drei/sechs Jahren geleistet habe, wird sich mit der wertvollen Hilfe der Vize-Präsidenten und der Beratungsgruppen ablesen lassen. Sie erhalten dazu in Kürze meinen alle drei Jahre verfassten Bericht. Aber es gibt natürlich noch erheblich mehr, was getan werden muss, und darum bitte ich Sie hiermit um die Wiederwahl, gemäß den Statuten, die drei weitere Jahre ermöglichen. Ich möchte gern das vollenden, was zu meinen Hauptzielen innerhalb der FISM gehört, um das Niveau der Zauberkunst zu verbessern und um die Qualität der Zauberkünstler anzuheben: * das FISM „Competition Compliance System“ (CCS) (Wettbewerb Bewertungs System) mit dem Regeln und Dienste den angeschlossenen Vereinen zur Verfügung gestellt werden können, um die Wettbewerbskandidaten besser zu qualifizieren und um sie als von FISM ausgezeichnete Künstler zu fördern; * das FISM Jury Qualification System (JQS), mit dem qualifizierte Juroren gesucht und ausgebildet werden können, um einheitliche und hochqualifizierte Bewertungen überall auf der Welt zu ermöglichen; * um auch weiterhin FISM außerhalb der Zauberwelt zu fördern, was die Zusammenarbeit mit Akademien und Universitäten einschließt. Der FISM Vorstand arbeitet bereits an all diesen Aufgaben und der Erfolg dieser Projekte ist für mich von großer Bedeutung. Ich möchte Ihnen allen und dem Vorstand für Ihre Unterstützung in den letzten Jahren sehr danken. Es ist eine großartige Belohnung für die wirklich harte Arbeit, die wir alle geleistet haben. Mit sehr freundlichen Grüßen Ihr Domenico Dante Dear Mr. President, My name is Ángel De Vicente and, like you, I love magic. That's why I ask you for just a few minutes of your time to assess my candidacy for one of the vice-presidencies of our organization. I was born in Madrid in 1959 in a middle class family. Since I was very young, I have felt the need to organize groups in different activities in which I felt passionate. For example, when I was 14 years old, I showed up at the Spanish Football Federation to create a club. The employee of the federation, smiling, told me that I should wait until I came of legal age, far from abandoning my dream, I asked him for the necessary documents and I convinced my father and his friends to be the ones who formed the Board of Directors. I looked for players and sponsors and my dream became reality: At. Europe. A reality that has lasted 40 years. During my studies as a Mining Engineer, that same drive led me to take on responsibilities as Technical Secretary of the Madrid Federation and the Spanish Federation of University Sports under the presidency of A. Pérez Rubalcaba who, after some years, would become Vice President of the Government of Spain. I had to reconcile my studies with some work, so when I was 16 years old I started working in the print shop of my family, which would become an inseparable companion for 36 years. There I started sweeping until I became the Commercial and Financial Director. All a life experience. Meanwhile, I was creating other companies in different sectors: Injury Recovery Centers (2000) School of Massage (2001) Production of events and shows (2009) Magic store (2011) School of magic (2012) My passion for Real Madrid C.F. has taken me to be part of one of the consulting bodies of the club in my capacity as president of one of the most emblematic partnerships: "La Cátedra". But, of course, my great passion has been MAGIC. As happened to many children of my generation, Magic came to my eyes through television programs where great Spanish magicians such as Juan Tamariz and Pepe Carroll delighted all of us. Spellbound by the Magic, I could only follow it as a spectator because of my professional responsibilities. Coincedentally, on one of my birthdays, a little boy of 12 years old amazed me with his illusionist skills and made me think: "why not me?". In a few months I began taking Magic classes and taking the entrance exam to the Madrid Circle of Illusionists. Little by little the Magic was taking over my life. In 2011, I left behind all my business commitments to dedicate myself professionally to Magic. From that moment magic encompassed my life. President Madrid Magico (2011) Vice President Spanish Magic Congress (Madrid-2011) President Club of Professional Illusionists-CIP (from 2012 to 2014) Professor of Card Magic (since 2012) President of the Association of International Magicians-ADMI (since 2014) President Golden Oracle International Awards (since 2015) International Relations and Promotion of the Royal University Center Reina Cristina-El Escorial (since 2013) I have been a judge in several international competitions: White Nights Perm-2010 Colomb D'Or Antibes-2014 Master of Magic St. Vincent-2014-2017-2018 FISM-Blackpool-2012 Flasoma Montevideo-2015 Flasoma Buenos Aires-2017 and this has allowed me to understand how important the qualification of Magical Art is. To work as a judge, far from being simple, is very rewarding when one realizes that it is done to qualify the Magical Art.

The pack is then cut several times and handed back to the magician. A pile of cards suddenly falls off the pack, leaving the magician holding the spectators card. METHOD When the card is selected by the spectator, the card on the bottom of the pack is crimped by the magician’s pinky. The spectator’s card is then placed on the top of the pack and the pack is cut. This now means that the spectator’s card is underneath the crimped card. The pack can be passed around the room to be cut several times and the spectator’s card will always be under the crimped card. The pack is then handed back to the magician who quietly puts his thumb under the crimped card appearing to be clumsy and allows the cards above his thumb to fall on the floor. The card under his thumb will be the spectators. The magician can also allow the rest of the cards to fall, leaving only the spectators card in his hand. This trick looks amazing because the audience has seen that the magician has not had a lot of contact with the pack and the whole routine has been totally impromptu.

  • Eugene Burger (1939-2017)
    1 Eugene Burger (1939-2017) Photo: Michael Caplan A Celebration of Life and Legacy by Lawrence Hass, Ph.D. August 19, 2017 (This obituary was written at the request of Eugene Burger’s Estate. A shortened version of it appeared in Genii: The International Conjurors’ Magazine, October 2017, pages 79-86.) “Be an example to the world, ever true and unwavering. Then return to the infinite.” —Lao Tsu, Tao Te Ching, 28 How can I say goodbye to my dear friend Eugene Burger? How can we say goodbye to him? Eugene was beloved by nearly every magician in the world, and the outpouring of love, appreciation, and sadness since his death in Chicago on August 8, 2017, has been astonishing. The magic world grieves because we have lost a giant in our field, a genuine master: a supremely gifted performer, writer, philosopher, and teacher of magic. But we have lost something more: an extremely rare soul who inspired us to join him in elevating the art of magic. 2 There are not enough words for this remarkable man—will never be enough words. Eugene is, as he always said about his beloved art, inexhaustible. Yet the news of his death has brought, from every corner of the world, testimonies, eulogies, songs of praise, cries of lamentation, performances in his honor, expressions of love, photos, videos, and remembrances. All of it widens our perspective on the man; it has been beautiful and deeply moving. Even so, I have been asked by Eugene’s executors to write his obituary, a statement of his history, and I am deeply honored to do so.

Adrian Smith, then current Dean of the Society of American Magicians. At the time, Harold as he was known to his friends, had the largest magic library in the world. Often Harold was a dinner guest at our house and as usual after our meal “the boys” would discuss magic and collecting. Harold’s plan for his books and ephemera was to donate it all to his alma mater, Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. As we all know that’s what happened to his collection. Ed on the other hand disagreed with Harold’s plan and said that when the time came for him to dissolve his library he wanted everything to be sold; so that other collectors could enjoy what he had amassed.
