The mosquito is the deadliest animal on Earth, and the tiny Aedes aegypti may be the worst species of all, spreading diseases like West Nile, malaria and dengue fever.

In that routine, the finish with a burst of silks is very appropriate and pleasing to the flow of the routine. I think doing it right would take a lifetime. My goal was to create something more like a dance than a magic performance. All of this has great meaning to me becasue the powerful Samuri studied the sword and things like the tea ceremony. The goal was not to create stunning magic but capture something of a distant culture. The plan was to make a cup and ball routine in the style of Japenes tea cermonies. I think my performance there is not as it could be. While we are talking about it all, I would like to point out that I think the oriental bowl routine in the latest DVD is spectacular. And by the way, I think standard big ball reveals are in error. With cups and balls, I have taken that direction. To be clear, if I thought some kind of big finish would enhance the effect, I would certinly work in that direction. I am not interested in following some rules others seem to have written. Then some out there want to dump a big coin onto the table. Isn't that a good finish? Perfect magic happens. Thus, the audience increases the heat on the last and sees nothng but magic occur. But there is no move as the first three events set up for the last. By the fourth they know what is going to happen and bring heat on every move. The idea here is that during the first three the audience is being educated on what the trick is. But the fourth happens without doing anything. I attempt to make routines that set up for a perfect finish. But then, that situation requires a different style. Some of this stuff is not for table hopping or bar work. It just doesn't make sense to dump a big coin on the table and have them say, "Boy, I didn't see that mud on the birthday cake comming." When I perform Cross Cards, the audience responds as if hearing a wonderful piece of music or watching a beautiful ballet. It would be a crime to cheat them out of that moment. When I perform it the audience sits there in disbeilief. My goal is to start strong and end stronger. Most coin across routines suffer from this. Theater magic gets them to react verbally but they can pass off the event and say, "He is quick with his hands." That is, often the climax marks the end of a trick but is not as strong as the first phase of the routine. But they are so stunned, they can't speak. The point here is that solid virtual magic hammers the audience. Then look at the principles involved with virtual magic.

Some magicians have attempted to add climaxes to them.Īlso I did not read it in any rules of how to perform magic that says there should be a climax.Īnd who would be briliant enough to write such a book. Many classics of magic do not, historicaly, have climaxes. Unfortunately I have been hit on this forum with a lot of people that just want to tear me down. There are many things I would like to say about this.
