A few words of introduction OF MAGICIAN DANY
Magic is an exciting and rewarding hobby for me, though I am solely an amateur. I have been pursuing this hobby off and on since about age 11. Good books in a local library fueled my young interest, and it has persisted to this day. I prefer to perform for small groups (10-50 people), though I also enjoy close-up. I work hard to perform well, but I am an amateur - and some of you know what that means. Some of my favorite effects include ITR flotation, clippo, Anderson's torn and restored newspaper, Lethal Tender, color changing shoelaces, the Raven, Lethal Tender (try it with the Raven for one segment of the effect!), rice bowls, stratosphere, slush, Twisted Sisters, coin alchemy, mental epic, mirror penetration, Professor's Nightmare, sympathetic coins, miser's dream, various coin effects, pencil through bill (Misled and other forms), and some of my own attempts at innovation

Wishful thinking
|
Magic ought to be an art form - and for some performers, it is. We amateurs often cheapen magic as art, leaving the impression that it is just a matter of buying tricks and "doing" them, often for unwilling audiences. The joy of experiencing art is too frequently lacking. Even my best performances still leave people saying "Wow, how did he do it?" rather than focusing on the joy of experiencing magic. I see that kind of joy in doing magic for young children, where the young mind focuses on the magic and not the hidden secret.
