Re: Harper's Magazine
It's also clear that there are exteme gaps in his knowledge, as Max alluded to. It angers me because there were two acts at the FISM Close-up competition that, as an American, and a member of the IBM and the SAM, caused me to cringe. But by far, the act that Alex Stone presented was the worst. He ad...

Re: Harper's Magazine
This article should get more attention from magicians. Particularly close-up magicians. Perhaps the readership of Harper's doesn't intersect greatly with the magic community. It should be of specific interest to anybody who attended FISM and actually SAW the Close-up competition. Over three pages of...

Philippe, This is the procedure John Bannon uses to get the three required cards in play for "Strangers Gallery" without showing their faces. It is uncredited in the write-up in "Smoke and Mirrors." Presumably it is his? This was my first encounter with the procedure. Gene Taylor

Hey, Rosie. I think the Sankey effect is closer to "card in box" than "card in wallet," since the place where the card is going to end up is in view the entire effect. This isn't true of (most) card to wallet effects. Not sure if that's what you're askin', but that's what I'm ans...

I think it's wrong for people to assume that the lack of response to an email is the fault of the (supposed) recipient. Sending an email does not guarantee delivery and this is especially true in today's SPAM-ridden world. If you don't get a response to an email, you should be asking whether it even...
