Read 5 easy ways to find out if your friend's a REAL magician?

Magicism.

The Internet has agreeably and literally changed almost every industry in the world. Making people self proclaimed experts virtually overnight. Magic is no exception to this change. How can we know if that person in our friend circle is a real magician? In this increasingly growing art of magic where every YouTube channel claims to be a magician,  here are five way to find out if your friend is a real magician.
  • A real magician doesn't do magic for people on demand. A magician surprises you with magic. It's candid and seems to come natural to them.
  • The magician should always know the right time and place to entertain their skill. Bad timing kills everything, even the best magic trick in the world.
  • A real magician fools you into thinking everything they've done is completely possible, even though some of the time it's not.
  • The real magician will have a real professional business card.
  • You'll know if your friend is a real magician if you've been to their show and it was awesome.

So if a person in your friend circle claims to be a magician and demonstrate at least 4 out of the 5 above, they just might be a REAL magician. Oh and this is only my opinion and is meant for entertainment purposes. Please don't be mad if you are not a REAL magician.

Magician gets heckled, read how he handles it.

3 Reason I might like a heckler. I'm going to be honest and tell you I really don't like hecklers at all. They are generally rude and inconsiderate of the feelings of others. A heckler can be a leech feeding off of every moment you create. They can suck the metaphorical blood out of you in front of hundreds or thousands, leaving you dead and bloated.  Over the years I've created a frame of thinking that allows me to see the brighter side of things. After being heckled I sometimes wondered if the heckler is right and why would they say or do that? How can I be more prepared next time? So I tried to figure out three good reasons to like having a heckler. Here is what I've come up with. 1. They keep me on my toes.  The heckler allows me to exercise my quick and sometimes puny wit. I've come up with some great things to get people to behave when I need them too. Treating drunks like kids works well. Treating kids like adults is just as effective and someth...

Two Magicians Create The Same Trick. Blind Cubed from Kardenni on Vimeo . The question, "Where I learn my tricks" comes up frequently. Like any trade out in the world, magic is taught. Only a few move on to becoming professional magicians who create magical moments on a daily basis. Some of the things I do are hand me downs or variations of existing tricks that I have worked out for myself. Others come right from my own mind and those are my favorite. Here's a interesting story behind how I created one of my current favorites and how I found out that someone els had the same idea. The reason I choose the following is, it's the one that gets the most questions after the experience. From 2008 - 2010 I had nightly shows on The M/V Discovery Sun and found myself with a lot of time on my hands during the days. So I decided to challenge myself and learn the Rubiks Cube. It seems random but it's true. It took some time, but once I understood the basics of ...

Illusion of Choice: A Magical Experience with Kardenni

**This blog is simply my interpretation of choice, not fact or exact science. I'm observing and reporting my perspective.** All the pain, sweat, tears and years of work can't stop me from doing something when it's worth it. That is what the project has been to me. Over the last three years, it's been the joy of my life and a pain in my ass. Illusion of Choice is a concept show for a live magic performance. A fun engaging experience meant to provoke the viewers subconscious and consider the weight a simple choice like buying vegetables or a gallon of ice cream. Why are you making this choice and are you really making it? All this blended into an interactive magic experience. It's a magic play, I call a magical ( Instead of a musical ). A story interpreted through drama and magic. Think about the last choice you made, which was to read this. Why did you do it? Why did someone else not read this? Which in turn raises millions of other questions. As more scienti...
