A Magic Show You Can Do

Vanishing Candle is an easy trick to learn.

Forget about street busking, restaurant table-hopping and small club performances — those won’t happen for a long, long time, but ZOOM magic tricks can be truly mystifying.

First of all, they’re not electronic gimmicks. They’re FEELABLE magic that looks good on ZOOM, and most magic tricks don’t, so pay close attention.

Here’s the breakdown of some smaller tabletop effects that are available for a ZOOM performance that you could easily give — none of these tricks require a lot of fancy sleight-of-hand skills.

Keep in mind that this is not a complete act, as there are about a dozen and a half CLOSEUP effects as well that could slip into this performance if you needed to fill more time.

After you’ve demonstrated mastery of the simple French Drop — no production at a ZOOM workshop, you can learn any of the effects I’ve listed below: Continue reading

Orm McGill’s Angel Show

Orm McGill and I did a performance at our annual convention back a few years ago, and during the time we were in contact, about five years, he passed on to me a number of invaluable hints on stage hypnosis.

Of course we talked about spirit communication, and he was Dr. Zomb, the Angel Whisperer and his Seance of Wonders are still the talk of the magic community.

I was asked if I had a copy of his “Angel Seance Show” book, but I’ll do a whole lot better than that — here’s a link to the DVD that shows his “Meet Your Angel” technique.

Magic Find Winners

Lemme show ya how to make money just watching videos and having fun all night long. First, tune in to youtube.com and then the fun begins …

I decided to go on a Shamanic Magic-Find Expedition on youtube, and this dueling horns and banjos is my leadoff piece — something you’d never find just flapping about doodling around looking for something unusual, which this emphatically is.

I’d recommend doing something like this in your own basement, if you happen to have the equipment, although 90% of the funny comes from the audience reactions. Continue reading

Life in a Box Chapter 8

Levitating a ball is easy, balance is the hard part.

I can not just levitate a metal ball, I can make it float, and even rise into the air above my head, all with the power of the mind and a little sleight-of-hand and misdirection.

That’s all it takes.

You can perform magic online in a video broadcast, or you can TEACH magic online using ZOOM or some other interactive communication platform.

Is Levitation Real?

Of course, the ball actually IS levitating, but we do a trick to explain it into nothingness. At some point, you’ll surprise yourself and magic will happen in spite of all your resistance.

Resistance to the magical side of life is a human trait and something you don’t want to develop, but constant exposure to humans can cause you to lose your spiritual power right down to the bone.

If that’s what happened to you, it’s time to reverse the flow, and I’ve got just the spiritual program to do it. Continue reading

Just a Reminder…

Yeh, that’s the idea — of course it’s a gimmick, but what if it isn’t? The entire deal rests with YOU using the rising ball to create a comedy scene where the ball is constantly trying to get away from you. The addition of a wire gimmick gives you the ability to have the ball dart in and out and bob about rapidly or slowly, at your bidding. Continue reading

Rolling Affirmations

Adding some detail makes this Orb come to life.

Think of an Affirmation as a series of actions that you take while standing more or less in one spot, and a Rolling Affirmation as a series of actions that are unlocked by your avatar’s passage through the Orb, sort of a forward-rolling from beginning to end.

The act of running through the Orb produces the Affirmation Effect.

Instead of picking up a book and reading it, you pick up a book and read it, see? And instead of waving a magic wand around, you pick it up at a dead run and it waves itself around as you run, get it???

If you stood still and lit some incense, would it be any different than if you do the same thing on the run? Actually, you do stop and light the incense, but couldn’t resist the attempt at a little humor.

When you pick up the incense, it makes a “lighting” noise. This increases slightly the Immersion Effect of the Orb, along with all the other reinforcements we can bring to bear, and you’ll be responsible to add your own two-cents’ worth in the form of incense, candle, ammy and other atmospheric preparations you’ve made for the journey.

Keep in mind that, although it looks quite like an ordinary video game, you are actually peering directly into another dimension, an alternate reality which really does exist.

Your Avatar has its own life in its own world. You see only a small portion of that life by looking through the Orb-O-Scope into that other world, The World Next Door. Distance is not an obstacle, however — we can look anywhere. Continue reading

How to CA$H IN on the FREE Government Coin Lottery!!!

E.J. Gold & Robert Anton Wilson at the Alta Street “Wheel of Fortune”.

Let’s face it — under ordinary circumstances, there’s no way a shlump like you is going to have a million bucks in the bank unless you happen to somehow WIN it at a lottery, but the sad fact is that you can’t afford to play the lottery.

Take heart — there’s a FREE U.S. Government Coin Lottery, and YOU can cash in on it, bigtime!

Imagine a lottery in which, if your ticket didn’t win, you could return it for another chance, and do this ENDLESSLY until you DO hit The Big One!

You don’t have to imagine an endless supply of lottery tickets — just go to the bank, give the teller $25 and take away a “bank box” full of machine-wrapped “Loomis” or “Brinks” rolls of mixed pennies, new & old.

Keep in mind that you never actually “pay” for these pennies — if you bring them all back to the bank, wrapped & rolled neatly and accurately, you’ll get back every cent, the full $25 bucks!

If you happen to find some “lucky” coins worth cash money in there, you’ll take them out and have to add a few pennies into the box to make it come up to the full $25 again, or do what I do with pennies — but not with quarters.

I merely put them into the change machine at our local supermarket and they credit my account with the total number the machine counted out. Easy as pie. Don’t even need to talk to anyone to get that to happen.

So keep in mind WHY you are searching pennies or quarters. It’s to find that million-dollar coin. Everything else is just everyday grind and occasional gravy, but it pays off, too, and I’ll explain how: Continue reading

Bubble Magic is Easy to Do!!!

 

 

You probably already know a good deal about so-called “Bubble Magic”, where you use a snow-globe to active and project a prayer with some considerable force and usually to a very great effect, but did you know that I make those things?

Yep, I do.

And if you follow the links on the images below, you’ll find your way to a magical place where I make all manner of strange and unusual items for your usage and perusal and perhaps inspiration in the matter of making your own. Continue reading

How Does a Cloak Work?

A Classic and Spectacular Cloak that will get attention wherever you go!

I like a Cloak that can accomplish all the magical operations you might want to engender, but it should also be striking enough, sufficiently eye-catching, to allow you to walk into the average museum’s gift shop and have the buyer ask, “Where did you get that dress?”

You can sell them wholesale, so that moment would be a good opportunity to speak right on up, with a phrase something like: “As it happens, I sell these, along with many other wearable art fashions and accessories, plus household objects of daily use — may I show you some samples?” at which point, you whip out your catalog, hitherto unobtrusively tucked under an armpit — but enough about me, let’s talk about you:

How does a Cloak work? I’ll try to explain, and I’ll keep it very simple. I make clothing, fashions of a different kind — they have “Attributes” and “Blessings” built into them, which gives the Level 1 Cloak a +3 To All Levels, which means it raises your Character’s Level from Level 1 up to Level 4, enabling you to act as if you actually were a Level 4.

Cloak Up For Health

“Cloak Up For Health”

Cloaking Up is more important than what it is you’re protecting yourself against. Wear a Cloak to protect & serve. Attributes of Cloaks are the usual Strength, Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma.

All other attributes are added by accessories, so the motto is, “Cloak Up & Accessorize”, sort of a magical spiritual variation of “Okay, laddies, lock and load!”, a carryover from the days of flintlocks.

I have here in hand a bunch of “Cloaking for Health” items I’ve made for folks who either want to add to their normal healthcare efforts, or replace them entirely with affordable health care of a different kind, if they have no other resources or benefits.

I’m just now adding a bunch of new departments in my tattoo-fashions shops, and if you know how to find them, you’ll be interested to note perhaps that the emphasis is really very strongly on Cloaking.

Cloaks are very basic equipment. You can’t possibly want to walk out onto the street stark naked, and so you want to “Cloak Up”, which means wear some clothing, which can be anything from pajamas to chain-mail, then modulate and moderate the effects with accessories, such as charms, rings, helm or hat, gloves or mitts, shoes or boots, belt or suspenders, badge, bracelets, wallet, watch and a variety of add-ons for the home, office or workspace, and even on the sports field.

I offer “unmissable” golf balls, which means if they land in the rough, you’ll never miss them. They’re cheap, only $18 for three, which is more than enough to get me through a game — I can shoot my own age, which is 75, almost 76, and that’s considered not bad for an old duffer.

Heck, I don’t even play golf, and I’m not that great, but once in a while, like I say, I can drive a good score. I did even better on the second hole.

All my Cloaks do essential the same thing, but on different levels. You will be able to wear a stronger Cloak with more Experience Points — there are a total of 7 levels of Cloaking that you can attain on Planet Earth while in a human incarnation, and it pays to remember that fact.

Sure, those bastards in Washington are raping the country, so of course you should “Get Mad”, but to REALLY get even, STAY HEALTHY and IGNORE THE BUMS!

If you have no medical coverage, no medical plan, zero health benefits, zero help with medicines and health issues, YOUR ONLY ALTERNATIVE IS MAGIC.

Hey, that’s where I come in. I have powerful shamanic magic at my disposal.

I can show you how the universe actually works, not just how it seems to work. Magic is merely the science of the SIM applied from in-game sources. No biggie, it’s basic sorcery, and you can do it, too. Just don’t use it for bad things, like revenge.

There’s no money in revenge. Get power. You want some power, to be able to rise above the misery created by Trump and his minions.
