SESSION 1
The host for the first session is mr. Luis De Matos
where he introduce each participants of the conference
and thank all the sponsors of the event with an
introduction video of the emc by mr. David Berglass
here are the lectures and performers of the first session:
puzzles, tricks and magic on the curious aesthetics of conjuring (Eric Mead) - he talks about different approach of magicians in presentation/magic and also what the audience thinks about our magic from skillfull to magical approach.
I like his lecture about this topic it
made me realize how my trick/effect plays for layman.
Ponta the Smith performed live from his matrix routine, ring on rope to cookie spellbound.
He performed all his act with music, i really like his coin effects
except for his ring on rope routine. the cookie spellbound is fun to
watch with a cookie bite effect :D. there's some flashes in his routine
because of the camera but you will still be fooled
dani da ortiz performed and explained one of my favorite effect in his dvd. he makes borrowed deck look like a marked deck
I like this effect a lot because its impromptu card magic
and it fools layman specially magicians :D
Lastly all the sessions end up with a question and answer
from the subscriber of the event. where you will find funny questions
with funny answers from the lecturers and performers.
SESSION 2
The host for the 2nd session is mr. Topaz
talks about creativity (gaetan bloom) - he talks about how to exercise
your creativity to come up with a different approach to magic and
create your original props.
This is the first time i saw mr gaetan bloom, i just knew him because of his
effect "escalator" where the chosen card rises top visually. All i can say is
he is really genius :)
helder guimaraes performed his variation of reset and invisible palm.
