I don't understand, are you people obsess with Magic or TALKING?
I stopped half-way in this video, first of all it was too DARK and then I saw a lot of talking. PPPFFFFFF %^&^%$#, I turned this thing off. I want to see MAGIC not someone trying to impress people with his ability to TALK! IF you want to impress people with you ability to talk then join a TALK show or RADIO station, otherwise shut-up and do the magic. BLAH! |

Madkiki, I'm confused.
I feel magic is 90% presentation. How can I present an effect to the audience without talking? I understand your condition, but my job is not to entertain YOU; it's to entertain the audience. I did not post this to fool magicians, that's not the kind of magician I am. I'm sorry you did not enjoy it...

Madkiki,
I agree the video was rather dark, but I saw something totally different. I see Uriel growing from just moves to an actual routine. I think that he did a great job and thank him for each of his performance videos. It takes a lot of courage to post videos of one’s performance to this group. I have learned something from each of Uriel’s videos and they encourage me to keep going. Take care, Bruce |

Thanks, MagicByUriel...I liked the grandmother's comment
Nicely presented. What size were the cups, out of interest? Geoffrey

Uriel,
Thank you for posting that video. It takes a lot of guts to post videos around here. I enjoyed your routine, it was evident to me that your audience enjoyed it as well. Also, your talking did not impress me at all. Try harder next time.
After much soul searching about a signature, I decided not to have one.

Uriel, thanks for posting that. Like others have said web forums can be a tough crowd.
Lots of tricks are easy to be performed very visually. But I think tricks like the cups and balls, that involve a lot of cover and are naturally confusing, are easier for most of us to perform with a lot of audience interaction. I like it performed that way because I think of cups and balls more as a street trick than as an "illusion". Madkiki maybe you'd enjoy a cups and balls routine like Tim Ellis' (http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=xV30vPxEhZo), or maybe some of the videos Al Schneider has posted on YouTube. |

In another post, Madkiki alluded to being hearing impaired. That might have something to do with his reaction. Or maybe he really is Mad(kiki)...
One time, when I was young, I botched a sleight so bad, Vernon, Marlo & Miller rolled over in their graves. But I didn't see Elmsley, probably because he was behind the others.

That is true. He gets to see the "pure" magic, unimpaired by the stuff spewing out of some magician's mouths they call "patter." Most of it is best described in much harsher words.
I'm sure he'd enjoy Dominic Duvivier's two person routine. It's silent, set to music, but the music doesn't matter on this one. The theatric interaction between him and his daughter more than compensates for it. Plus, the misdirection is the best I've seen in a long time.
No trees were killed in the making of this message, but a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
