Mentor Tyler Ericson.
Learning cheating
Secret collecting. And becoming overwhelmed by having too many tricks. Many of those who have the most tricks have non to perform when asked.
What’s being displayed in secrets is what you see. Magic what’s “really going on” is hidden.
Oriental magic done by white folks. Okito, Fu Manchu, Chung Ling Soo by Jim Steinmeier.
The importance of being fooled to remember what it’s like. Rekindle the passion.
