Hello fellow magicians,
I'm so
very sorry I've be completely remiss in posting to the Trick Talk blog since Magic LIVE in
August. Boy Scouts' honor that I'll be better in the new year.
There
have been so many really great tricks to come out this year, especially in the
second half. The
ones that immediately come to mind are Cue the Magic!, Flash Tray, Rope, Nut & Knot by
Giovanni Livera, and Inferno by Joshua Jay.
The Slammin' Sizzlin' Hot Tricks Lately
Most
recently I cannot more strongly recommend The Final Cut by Bob Kohler and Scott
Alexander, 52 Shades of Red by Shin Lim, VAPR
by Will Tsai and Pocket Money by Wayne Dobson and The 100th Monkey by Chris Philpott. Check out the video below:
On the
kid show category, I recommend Audience Testing Device by Kandu Magic, Princess
in a Pickle by Silly Billy, Evaporation by Louie Foxx and Insta-Snake by Wolfs
Magic.
All are first-rate kid show effects and have thought put into them.
As a quick aside, I
would recommend getting the last few units available from Jef Eaton for
Kandu Magic of his Knot Funny. It's got good family fun
written all over it.
For
a really great read and a must for serious students of magic, I fully recommend Full Bloom (2 Book Set) by Gaetan Bloom &
Kevin James. The man is a genius among us.
Tapping into the amazing mind and
thought-process of Gaetan Bloom is a real treat. Add it to your library!
Have
a wonderful holiday season to you and yours. And best wishes for a prosperous
New Year.
Tim Mannix, Magician
