Thank you Tim Ellis for clarifying this. As I just have gone through a long process of a FISM judge, I have been to many conventions and know the process of the judging system very well. Even if you don't agree with everything FISM does, they have made huge efforts to train jurors and introduce stan...

I am so sorry to hear this. Ken was a wonderful magician, magic historian, collector, host and friend. Several times I had the pleasure to visit him at his estate near Cincinnati. His magic collections were breathtaking. As a person he also impressed me with his career as a successful businessman wh...

I think the convention scene is changing rapidly. The conventions which are organized by clubs like I.B.M. or SAM but also in Europe are loosing importance and have much lower attendance. On the other hand Genii Convention, Magic! Convention, FISM or new formats like The Session are successful. On t...

Thank you!

Can anybody tell me who owns the right for the Dean Dill items such as "Deans Box"?
Thank you

I have mixed feelings when an official FISM Board Member like Peter Din writes some critic which is not official in a public blog. I think that the FISM Officials cannot blame just Walter Rolfo. They are responsible for the contracts, they have seen the theatre. They knew that the acts would be film...

The german webshop has this balls in a lot of colours. They are also in orange available.
www.jedinat.de
there is an english version and you have to look for the cups and balls. There is then a link to the balls. A little tricky to find. Or you just email them.

It was for shure a magic act. Or how do you define a magic act? How many props are used? How many sleight? How many effects? It was more magical then many of the manipulation acts where you have to see countless billardball moves were you never got a magical feeling. The first place also suprised me...

Hanno

.............. but the did judge them first place. And it was not one judge but about 12 different persons. So you also could argue if the fism winner in close up should do a little more then doing a whole act with 3 transparent cups where the operandus modi was quite obvious. For me it was a boring...

I spoke to Christian Jedinat today, he will get in touch with you
All the best

Years ago I saw Roy Johnson perform this effect . It was a killer and a friend of mine which is a layman still speaks about that effect which happens in his hands. He performed it on a small stage, no special lighting. A great effect.

Hanno

hi Tsunamee 5,
why cant you stop insisting on the privat life of lance burton? You have heard here a lot of arguments why nobody wants to discuss this kind of stuff. There are a lot of publications around which dont respect the private life of famous people. Buy them and enjoy.

The manufacturer for Harold Voit is a true master of magical apparatus: Tony Lackner. I talked with him last weekend about the rose mirror. He told me that he will not make new once in future.
Hanno

Hanno

I think this is not a difficult question.
As this is your professional act you have to replace it.

When the discussion about the Matinka Chairs began here, I got the impression, that selling this prop is unethical. In the meantime we heard, that it is not the prop but the concept of the Turvy Chairs. Then Stevens Magic was accused to sell this without permission. In the meantime we know that they...

lets move from magic to the real world. I am working for an international pharmaceutical company. I could tell you a lot about copyright, patents etc. Richard Kaufmann was absolute right, that it will be impossible to get a patent on magic tricks, which will be out of discussion. Its also not possib...

a few words for business cards: 1. most of the magic business cards Ive seen make a cheap and not high class impression. 2. most business cards I got from magicians I got without asking for it ...... My opinion: (if you want to work good gigs) Make a business card, not a silly childish card with rab...

Just a note to the comment of dick koornwinder.
