In Front of the Mirror

So I’m sick.  yay!  Right before the holidays, I go and get myself sick.

Luckily this isn’t a podcast so you can’t hear how annoyingly congested I am.

I’ve decided that I’m going to do my own contest here on Eyellusionist.com!

That’s right kiddies, yours truly has decided to break down and do a contest.

It’s going to be pretty basic, but the prize is pretty cool.  So make sure you keep tuning in to see what we’re going to do.  I’ll give you a hint.  The contest starts on New Years day…what else happens on New Years Day?  Think on that awhile and I’ll post more updates soon.

Also, if you haven’t already, this is the perfect time to subscribe to me on Twitter, the link is on the side of the page —–>

I’m going to be releasing some up to the minute contest details on Twitter and your best bet is to catch them is if you’re subscribed.

I promise I won’t pull a Miley Cyrus on you and close my account and make a whiny song on Youtube about my poor reasoning, judgement and lack of personal accountability and blame it all on my fans…if you’ve seen her video, you know what I’m talking about.

Cheers,

Alan

Alright, so my birthday was yesterday and what a day it was.  Read the rest of this entry »

Hello everyone.Today is my birthday! So short post. Wanted to share these videos with you.

I don’t think they got to enough people with stage fright and I think it could be really helpful. Also Steamwell makes an appearance.

And you thought I was going to say “vampire”. Though admittedly his talent does seem other worldly.
His name is Mark Hilkemeijer, and chances are you’ve seen his “smooth 360” video on Youtube, (if you haven’t, you should) and many agree it’s the most impossible looking color change they’ve ever seen.

Here’s your chance! Him and I were at the same event TAOM 2009 and he put on the best lecture I’ve ever seen.

Thought you guys might enjoy this!

Cheers,

P.S. In this video you can see John Born, Diamond Jim Tyler and Trigg, just to name a few…see if you can spot them.

I’ve been after this deck for awhile, they’ve just started reprinting them, and I finally got my hands on a couple packs. These were put out by FireCat Studios in collaboration with Bizzaro and Christopher Lyle. Great pack of cards, handles really well, good stiff cardstock, ah just watch the review.
