This section is dedicated to the art of visual magic. Along with my small videos, I will be featuring other magicians worthy of mentioning. I hope to instill my passion for magic and its rich history, plus be a guiding light for those curious enough to look.
Remember to read all the information about each artist, and make sure to scroll under each vintage magic video because I work hard to provide a direct link to: 1) an official website 2) wikipedia / magicpedia entry 3) the most information found.
Asher Twist Trailer
Not only one of magic's best kept secrets, it's an impressive impromptu card effect with only four regular cards! Aces turn face down and face up in the most magical way.
This is a trailer for Thunderbird : The Modern Ace Production. It's shot on the streets of Las Vegas. The great background music is written, played, and produced by Dana Hocking.
This is the final thought offered on the Asher Twist DVD. It's a strong statement about respecting the art of magic. Please watch this video multiple times.
This is a trailer for the Diving Board Double PDF. Please note, only the Acrobatic version of the move is show in the video above. The great background music is written, played, and produced by Ebay Jamil.
After having a card selected, your spectator holds a zip lock bag with a Joker sealed inside. The Joker, held securely between the spectator's palms, 'transforms' into the selection! Never once is the bag opened. Everything can be handed out for examination.
The spectator tries to find the four aces and fails by finding four wrong cards. The magician takes the four cards and magically changes them into the four aces.
I admit, it was unnecessary to destroy that Jerry's Nugget Playing Card. It was selfish and disrespectful. I'll try not to do it again, though it will be hard. Footage provided by my pal A. Rivkin (shot in 2006).
Raised by a semi-professional sleight of hand artist, I was born into the art of magic.From that young boy understanding his talents along the journey to where I am now, it's been my duty to bring the most visual magic I can to the public eye.
I have been interested in the art of magic for over 20 years, and have been performing professionally for half that time.
My raw visual style of magic is easily recognized and universally acknowledged.>>
