What does magic mean to you?

Art to an artist cannot be defined or logicized. This topic has been covered before in great detail, you can find it in our threads and find some really personal statements.

One thing that a magician needs to answer is that simple question. All of us can tell you moments and experiences and stories, ask you questions, tell you answers [under circumstance], and give you history, but once a magician, whether student, master, marketer, communicator, or teacher understands what magic is in his vision, and can accept this lifestyle and incorporate not only when he practices routines, effects, sleights, or is "in the lab", but when he eats, when he brushes his teeth, when he is not mechanical or observant of "angles" but learning himself in a perspective of "magic".

I use he because I am a male magician, there are female magicians in this world. Don't forget that!

I learn magic. This is what I do

One day I will perform for 30 people, two different card routines, and finish in a close-up scenario a Stage effect.

It will be magical
