You know how sometimes there's a prop that just looks so out of place, that it screams "magic utility device" and completely pulls you out of the moment, so you can't focus on the magic? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Zmh5hbgHFI)
I believe Evan was saying that's what these props do to him, especially when magicians claim they're real Chinese coins. I don't feel the same way - they barely even register a "huh, that's unusual" for me, but I can understand those who feel differently. There's certainly a wide range of possible reactions. That said, don't agree it's entirely up to the performer. If I were to go around making claims and stories about the origins/meanings of tarot cards in my patter, and then I performed the effect for someone who's an expert in tarot reading, I can't be too surprised if they correct or disagree with me - even if it's enough that they stop paying attention. As with everything, it's a spectrum - it's not always 100% the spectator, but neither is it guaranteed to be 100% the performer. |
