#33 Freshly Squeezed Miracles

Having fun with Daniel Garcia! He performed his hilarious version of Sam The Bellhop after this, but sadly we didn't catch it on video. We were laughing in tears!



I really had the best time this weekend at the Nordic Magic Convention! I entered the competition just to prepare for FISM next year. I wanted to get some feedback from people, but I made many mistakes and pretty much bombed my whole act. At least that's what I thought. The judges didn't agree and they awarded me the first prize. After the competition I was pleased to hear that even Roberto Giobbi, who was one of the judges, was suspecting that I might have used a stooge!

However, the best part of the weekend was the possibility to have conversations with Armando Lucero. We spent hours talking every night. The man is a god. He really made me think about magic in a new way and made me realize how little we actually now about the art...

#32 Conversion

This is a fun one. The idea was to create a visual transposition effect with using only two cards. Nothing extra. This is what I came up with.

I actually have had this idea quite a while now, but just recently I came up with the missing little thing that took the effect to a whole new level.

#31 Pocket Bluff

This on is rather simple and there isn't really a lot to say about. This is just a very practical little routine that is kinda fun to do. In the video there are at least two very bad mistakes that I saw immediately when I got the video rendered. However, I got a schedule to keep up with, so this performance will have to do. I hope you can forgive me one day.

Pocket Bluff.

#30 Tasteless

I have been playing around with this idea (which I believe is first seen in Paul LePaul's card to wallet routine) for a while now but didn't really know what to do with it. Today, while filming a completely different trick I suddenly realized what I had to do with it.
