Hmmm, I think you'd have to be a little eccentric to be interested in the phenomena, folklore, and myths that provide so much of the framework of bizarre magic. I guess you could be a mundane & uninteresting and do bizarre magic, but it would seem inauthentic I think. I would characterize myself as a non-conformist...how about the rest of you?

Is this a question or an observation? I'm sure I'm not the only one who's been observed before.

It is both I think. I love being excentric and I don't do anything special to be that way. Also I'm a non-conformist, because I am, I don't like to draw between the lines of the mundane, that's to easy.

I sometimes have to remind myself that to the rest of humanity I must be a little... odd. "Normal" for me is seances, tarot cards, and out of body experiences. I have to try to remember that for the vast majority "normal" is office job, soap operas, and football.
I know which one scare *me* the most!

Any new books? Hi Roni! I'm slaving away (?) at the moment with a new one that centred around Kiss of the Clairvoyant. I'll be in touch when I have a copy for you to take a look at, if that's okay? See you in November at Tab?

Hhhmmmm....an interesting quandry. I think that those of us who delve into the darker realms of our art
definitely have a little extra something. Eccentricity? Perhaps. There is something that is inside us all that sets us just a little bit apart from the masses....and I like that.

I am certain that everybody who considers themselves bizarre magicians, distance themselves from the other magicians and even mentalists and cosider them as people who do magic with an attitude off "Look-what-I-Can-Do".
I for instance got upset because people always tried to figure out how I did something. That's why I'm going to start doing magic with a story woven between the magic. |

I didn't consider myself eccentric for a long time.
Not until I asked my friends, family and associates how they might describe me. Much to my chagrin they used the word eccentric many times when weird failed to fit well enough. I don't think one could be interested in Bizarre magick without being a tad bizarre themselves. It's good to know a place where people of the same mind can meet share their stories and exchange their ideas. |

I am not rich enough to be considered 'eccentric".

First of all you don't need to be rich to be eccentric I had a teacher: a very brilliant man, who was like a walking wikipedia. He knew everything in my mind and he wasn't rich at all.
I recall being described as intelligent, wise, with broad knowledge of things and being mysterious, in my mind everything a man (or woman) needs to be a bizarrist. |

I never thought of myself as a bizarrist until people told me I was one. I just liked the fine line between making an audience squirm and laugh.

I never really considered myself eccentric, weird, or a bizarreist. I just don't know anything I love better than to be elbow deep inside a cadaver. Isn't that normal?

Weren't Bizarrists goth before goth became a trend? I always thought the Adams family were the coolest family on their block, so I don't think bizarre magicians are eccentric, I just think they're cool. Even on the Café, this is the coolest place to be...warm people...cool place. (And a little dark too).
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.
