🎮 2. Dynamo Is Dead Interview

"Dynamo is back! But not as you have known him before."

Dynamo talks about the challenges he's faced along the years, changing management, from health issues to legal disputes, in this very raw interview he did to market his new show on Sky Max "Dynamo is Dead".

Listen to the man

🪄 3. From Eton To Emirates Palace: EMC Interview

"Netflix star Drummond Money-Coutts sits down with The National as his Abu Dhabi residency takes off with head-scratching magic."

Find out how much money Netflix paid DMC, what he did before he was a magician and much much more in this exclusive interview he did to market his first ever public show called "Impossible" (yes, same name as Blaine's show).

DMC on the mic

📚 4. World Famous in Gainesville

Local Gainesville magician, Magic Mike, has been captivating audiences for over thirty years with an array of tricks of the trade, including puzzles, creative balloon-making, and, of course, amazing magic.

I wanted to include an interview with an every-day magician (instead of a famous one) as these magicians are the real 'heroes' for a lot of young folks.

What's better than seeing magic done live, right?

🃏 5. How To Design Mixed Reality Experiences Like A Magician

"...when the digital and physical worlds converge seamlessly, creating an experience that feels impossible"

An interesting look at how virtual reality can make use of the medium to create new experiences for people.

An interesting article about Greg Madison who is a former analog magician, that is now crafting digital illusions as an interaction designer.
