My reply was kind of to la0o9, as he seemed unsure of the difference between magic being a tool and an art form. If we establish that all "art" is merely the way one expresses them self, maybe there is no difference?
I agree with Marcos that most people are unaware that they are "doing art", as you put it

So it would seem that magic, used to communicate and to socialize primarily( the main emphasis of the conversation(s) is the trick) is just "tricks", and interaction with other people with magic being a secondary thing( the subjects being talked about are primary, magic acts as an add-on that wouldn't be missed if not present but invaluable if present) being an "art"?
i personally think the above is true, because while everyone needs something to talk about, but not many NEED magic in a casual conversation. BTW, all that i've been saying is only in a street magic or non-stage situations( if it's stage magic then i have a different concept about what art is)
