Great Scott's Matrix Routines

Scott F. Guinn
Great Scott's Matrix Routines by Scott F. Guinn... learning experience much easier.

Each of these routines has its own unique qualities to offer. Coins assemble, disassemble, change colors, and more!

Level: Easy - Intermediate

What I like about this is that Scott is so complete in his explanations. His use of photos is spot-on. He is one of the only guys nowadays that I would say doesn't need video to show you how to do this stuff. He is a clever writer and clearly lays out several methods of Matrix. He's got his ebook laid out like a surgical procedure: every move precise, every motivation precision. Put it all together and you've...

The John Booth Reader by Ben Robinson

In this book about all of Dr. John Nicholls Booth's (1912 - 2009) books the reader is treated to find information on many topics of interest written between 1929 and 2009 - 80 years! Ben Robinson and Dr. Booth worked on four books together from 1985 to 2009. Robinson indexed the first twenty-five years of Booth's celebrated Memoirs (the index published in 1990). The John Booth Reader gives a wonderful insight into Booth's multifaceted life of Unitarianism, preaching, stage and close-up magic, mountaineering, adventuring, filmmaking and travel to one hundred and forty six countries.

Musical Influences

Nefesch
Musical Influences by Nefesch... with music, I actually use the music in order to hypnotize people and place them into trance, I also use music to influence them and perform my acts, I am sure you have heard about "suggestive music" haven't you?"

The result: I was hired and performed in that bar without any inconvenience.

One final story (from many I have):

I go to an interview in a Bar, and I ask for the owner (who had asked me to met him there), when he sees me he says:

"I thought you were a mentalist"
"yes I am" I said
"Then, why are you carrying a guitar with you?"

The Chimney Sweep's Victorian Oracle

Paul Voodini
The Chimney Sweep's Victorian Oracle by Paul Voodini

In Victorian London, the chimney sweep was a man who lived half way between night & day, between light & dark. A man who breathed smoke and handled hot coals. A man who, it was believed, talked to demons and angels as he made his way upwards through the chimney from the hearth to the stars. A man who cheated Death on a daily basis. To shake hands with a sweep was to bring yourself good luck, and if a woman should kiss a sweep then folklore dictated that she would be pregnant within the year, and the child would have the ’gift’ of clairvoyance. And for those souls brave enough to cross his...

All Roads Lead To Rome: exploration of an unusual magic method

Chris Wasshuber
All Roads Lead To Rome: exploration of an unusual magic method by Chris Wasshuber

With contributions by Werner Miller, Max Maven and Shigeo Futagawa.

The day was March 6th 2011 when Werner Miller sent me his Da Capo 3 and Da Capo 4 ebooks. Whenever I receive something from Werner I make time to read it. He has a knack to incorporate new twists and takes, or entirely new principles which stimulate my own grey cells.

Browsing Da Capo 3 I stumbled on an unusual effect which Werner titled "Pointing the Way". It was first published in 2001 in Club 71. This effect consisted of two parts. One was a printing effect where blank cards were shown, which later had arrows printed on them. This part of the effect was nothing special, the usual...

Ian Quick... for private clients as well as some of the largest corporate clients in the country, including Bell, the Bay, and Compaq to name a few.

Says Ian Quick, "I was ready to show the world my magic, but what I needed was an audience. I began performing part-time on weekends, all the while keeping my day job. Many of my peers saw the success I was suddenly having and began asking me for tips, just as I had asked Elliott a few years before. These were all competent magicians who could perform great shows, but didn't know where to find an audience.

The Robert Harbin Book by Robert Harbin

This is a digital facsimile version of the original hardcover book. [The one hardcover I had left has sold. Sorry.]

Back in the 1970s Martin Breese had the chance to record Robert Harbin on one of his early Magicassette releases. The Harbin Magicassette probably rates as the most popular of his recordings.

In 1983 Martin asked the late Owen Griffith to transcribe the words from the Harbin Magicassette. The late and great Eric Mason created the illustrations for The Harbin Book. One day at a business trade fair Martin saw a full scale photo litho printing machine being demonstrated and decided to leap in to the deep end and he bought the demonstration machine and had...
