http://www.penguinmagic.com/p/7161 "Magick Balay is not only the greatest magician I know, but the best Magic demonstrator I've ever seen." - David Roth "Magick has been a strong influence in my tastes and performance since day one, when I met him as a teenager. He was the first person to show me that magic can actually be cool. As a real worker, he truly understands the craft, and his lecutre shouldn't be missed." - Doug McKenzie "Balay has more than magic in his name - he has magic in his DNA and the marrow of his bones! When he lectures, what you will hear is the voice of experience!" - Michael Ammar "Magick Balay's attention to detail is what makes his work so powerful for people in the real world." - Asi Wind What will he teach?

It was a great lecture Magick balay as usual full of energy and real world magic and some classic effects that have stood the test of time. A wonderful entertaining lecture and tricks we can all relate to and still learn from magick balays performances in the real world of magic.

Magick is the coolest dude on the planet. Anybody who visits NYC should make a trip to Tannen's Magic. Hopefully Magick will be there demoing. He consistently puts his genius touches on every trick he performs. Super clever and down to earth.

I also enjoyed this lecture. There weren't a lot of magician fooler's but instead it was chock full of practical real-world magic that will play well across a variety of settings. I particularly enjoyed his PK Touches using an ITR and his explanation for choosing this method over loops. And his set of impromptu effects using standard bar materials (straws, napkins, stir sticks, etc) was excellent for those occasions when you want to perform something at a bar or restaurant but left the house unprepared. All said, this was a good value lecture- he taught ton's of material in a friendly no-nonsense style.

I have downloaded the lecture to watch on my way to Magic Live in Las Vegas on Sunday. He has been at the last couple of Magic Lives and so hopefully I will get to see him again in a couple of days.

Does anybody know the name of the pen through bill he uses? He said it was called the wonder pen, but I couldn't find that on Tannen's site. Thanks.

I was looking for it as well, but I haven't been successful. The name is Doug Edwards' "Wonder Pen-A-Tration." I haven't been able to find that particular one in stock anywhere yet, though. Apparently the Perfect PENetration is similar, as is the Stealth Pen on Penguin Magic - although I'm guessing both are basically cheaper knock offs, so not sure which is best. But I do like the papermate style pens much better than the one I got as a kid long ago (I ended up with the Empire one as a gift years ago). Here's some more info I did find though:
http://magicref.tripod.com/magref/artpen.htm http://magicfakers.blogspot.com/2007/10/......ers.html According to this last one, it is apparently now made by Tenyo and Fantasma (Pen O Tration)... |

It's pretty much the same. I'ts not a complicated sequence and the moves are fairly straight forward. He shows the same folds and switch as on his DVD.
