The Magic Castle - Enchanted or Endangered? PDF Print E-mail
Written by John Randall   
Thursday, 04 June 2009 05:32
For over forty-five years now, magicians worldwide have revered Hollywood's famous Magic Castle as the Mecca of Magical Arts, the holy palace of prestidigitation and a virtual sacred sanctuary of soothsayers. And while I appreciate and recognize the apparent lack of watering holes especially designed to accommodate the magical brotherhood, I often wonder if it hasn't evolved into something that would cause the likes of Slydini or Dai Vernon to roll over in their graves. If you've never been to the Castle, don't let me burst your bubble. Go! Enjoy yourself! Eat and drink until you can't see straight! Just be forewarned... It'll cost you plenty and even your perfect double lift won't earn you any discounts.

When a Magician is NOT a Magician PDF Print E-mail

There are two words I never use when doing a magic trick, either in the introduction thereof or in the actual presentation itself. The first word is magic. The second word is trick. Why? Because nowadays it seems nobody actually wants to see a magic trick unless, of course, they've already shelled out big bucks for an evening at the Magic Castle or stageside tickets to Lance Burton. Truth be told, almost nobody wants to admit to even liking magic anymore despite any burning curiosity they might be secretly harboring to the contrary. This isn't to say that there's anything wrong with a traditional tuxedo-clad approach to the art. It's just not the way I choose to conduct business. If you've ever approached a perfect stranger in a business or social setting and asked them outright if they'd like to see a magic trick, you know exactly what I'm talking about. I like to believe I've developed a much more subtle approach.

It was with some trepidation that I embarked on this project. Having examined the inadequacies of my former equipment, and failing to find a reasonable solution available on the market, I had little recourse but to forge ahead and design my own equipment. I wanted to build something that would:

Keep Magic in Order with Free Information Management Software PDF Print E-mail

I was reading some reviews for MagicBase PRO and also reviewed the documentation and it seems from all reports it is a great product.  I must say it seems to be worth every penny of the $199 introductory price. However, it occurs to me that some generic tools have some of the capabilities of this specialized tool and are available for no-cost at all.  Although the free versions are quite good in most cases, some offer upgrades for enhanced functionality at a modest upgrade fee.
