⚠️ This challenge is part of the Street Magic course ; only complete it if you're a student. Goals for this challenge: Introduce yourself to your fellow magicians. Tell us your goal for this course. Example: Hi, I'm Julio Ribera! I'm a magician from Valencia, Spain. I'm 25 years old (and I turn another year older on February 27th) and I've been involved in magic for over a decade. One of the things that inspired me most when I started was discovering David Blaine's TV specials where he performed street magic. I'd watch the recordings over and over until I figured out the secret to his tricks. Obviously, I don't recommend doing that because it takes a lot longer and you learn the techniques incorrectly (it took me a long time to correct them later 😂). Since then, street magic and card magic have become my two biggest passions. MY GOAL WITH THIS COURSE: I want to build a repertoire of magic tricks that allows me to always be ready to create moments of wonder anywhere, anytime, even if I don't have a deck of cards on me. Now it's your turn! Reply to this post with your introduction and course goal.

Hey everyone, I'm riicks, and I'm a beginner in card magic (I've been at it for about a year). Since I've learned a lot of sleights, sometimes I wish I had them all well-organized in one place where I could quickly access them. And since I also know a bit about programming, I came up with the idea of making an app. This app has the following sections: My Tricks (where you jot down the effects you know, classify them by difficulty and how much practice you've put in, and add your patter), Sleights (where you list the sleights you know and the ones you want to learn), a section for different types of decks, a logbook to record your practice sessions and performances, an 'Ideas' section where you can store ideas, patter, and routines. Another section is dedicated to organizing your patter and routines for stage performances (where you can note the duration, what you'll be doing, and the date), and finally, a section that helps you create and practice a Stebbins stack. The app doesn't ask for personal data, doesn't require internet access, and has no ads. It's designed so that if you switch devices, you can create a file with all the info you had saved on your previous device, open that file in the new app, and have all your stuff. (It's worth mentioning that the app doesn't reveal any magic secrets whatsoever; it just helps you organize the sleights you know and the tricks and effects you want to learn…) Right now, it has a few minor bugs that don't affect the app's core functionality, but they do impact the user experience and overall convenience. Also, for now, I'm the only one who has it on my phone. The plan is to eventually upload it to the Play Store so other magicians can have an easy and fast way to organize all their repertoire and knowledge on their phones. I still need to make some improvements to the app, and that's where I thought maybe this community of magicians could give me some advice on what features to add, which ones might not make much sense, or just tell me what you think about the app. Sorry for the super long post, everyone. Huge thanks to all of you!!

Hey again! 😅 I've been looking at marked decks, and my first thought was the Phoenix Marked Deck , because even though I've never owned one, it's the most well-known. However, recently, the " My power Deck " came out, a gimmick Bicycle deck. If any of you have either of them, I'd appreciate any advice or opinions. Thanks!!

Hey everyone! Anyone want to share their favorite magic trick? No matter what it is! Cheers!

I found this trick on YouTube, and I'd love for someone to help me understand how it works so I can perform it.

Hey everyone, my name is Alex and I'm just starting out in the world of magic. My knowledge is pretty basic, and I'd love to learn the ropes and how to put together routines in general. My main interests are card magic, coin magic and magic with everyday objects, and I'd also like to delve into digital magic. I'm totally open to feedback, tips, and any help from the community to improve. Thanks a ton to anyone who reads this, and cheers!

Hey everyone, I've bought the self-tying laces but I don't know how to use them because I can't find the instructional video.

Does anyone know how this trick is done or where I can learn it?

Hey everyone! Today I was practicing with my loops , and after looking in the mirror, I noticed that they stand out quite a bit against my hand. I don't know if it's just me being paranoid or if it's real, but I have a feeling they're visible. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!! 😁

Hey, I need someone to teach me a mentalism routine that's like "You'll do exactly what I want without even realizing it" and some comedic bits.

I've done some research in the books I have, but I'd love to go into more detail.

The other day I saw an interview where RickyEdit was saying there's a gimmick that lets you have, for example, four names, and the first letter of each of those four names spells out a word you've chosen. I'm not sure if I explained that well, I hope so. Does anyone know what it's called?

Can anyone give me some ideas for presenting the effect performed by Adrián Vargas on Got Talent? It's done with an Al-Koran deck.

Really interesting. It's not just for the magic he performs ( and that's great too ), but for everything he talks about.

Hey everyone! I'm dropping by to ask for your help. I'm pretty new to this, and I'm looking for a specific trick to learn more about, practice, and eventually add to my repertoire. Thanks in advance to anyone who can lend a hand! I'm also happy to help out where I can, even though my knowledge is pretty limited at the moment. P.S.: Sorry about the image quality. 🙃
