The Big Blind Friday Ep. 56

Your weekly dose of magic from around the world, from BBM

Hey Owen,

If you're a card magician, then you definitely know the importance of being able to control a card to a desired position. As a performer, you will arrive in all sorts of situations, which will require you to adapt and be able to move cards around in the deck as you wish.

For those occasions, Biz has put together 7 unique controls which you have not heard of before (most likely). And you can view these all FOR FREE right here: The 7 Levels of Card Controls (Explained) .

This is a new series that we've put together for you guys as we are trying to put out more content online for everyone to enjoy and learn from.

As such, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel and turn on notifications. It helps push the video to more people who can benefit learning card magic from professionals.

Think of a card. Got one?

How audiences choose playing cards, the difference between telling someone to "name" a card and "visualize" a card and much more.

This article is great for anyone who wants to understand more about human behaviour (and maybe apply it in their routines).

Worth the 5 minute read

📚 4. Kickstarter Spotlight: Peach SOJU Playing Cards

A new deck from BAOBAO Restaurant with a peach theme this time. I really like the design of the tuck case. These guys have some really cute and quirky designs which I really like.

Just a bit left from the campaign. Get yours before anyone elses!

Discover more of New York as well as where Asi Wind likes to go, eat, drink or watch something.
