By wanting it. It may sound like a simple answer but its not. In theory, its a long stort yell but practically its even longer. To understand the philosophy of this art is not possible in a few sentences. It chose me, not did I, started out as a hobby and it grew. I havent quit it a single day since we met.
It is the closest thing that makes me feel satisfied. Illusion is a very complex art, you can improve yourself in many areas all the time.
If you work a lot and like it, yes but if you really wanted it, you would be asking me another question.
Not in Turkey, but there are in some countries. However I do give private lessons and special courses teaching the art of magic. You can find details in my website. Actually there is even a one lesson course that you finish learning doing 10 impressive tricks with everyday items !
If I had supernatural powers, I would not be a part of this nature.But I can tell you this; half of what I do is real (things you dont know) and half of it is illusion. I will not tell what is in what half.
Absolutely not ! Do i look cruel ? As a person who abides by ethics of this profession, one of my golden rules is never harming animals or any living creature. Actually any illusion i perform with a human or animal is designed spesificly for their comfort and safety.
It will not make you happy to know, trust me.
Secret will not impress anyone, it dissapoints. To have art evolve, knowledge must be passed on with wisdom. This means ‘how did you do that’, ‘can you teach me something’, ‘how does this work’ questions will not be answered. To get an answer, question needs to be asked in the right time, by the right person with the right intentions.
I believe in uniqueness in art so no examples for me but this does not mean i dont like anyone.
We are not scientists but we do use technology and science a lot. Most of the time magic pioneers new tech but products of our mind are majority.
More you work, better you get. I improve my self all the time, not just phisically but also mentally.
This is a combination of many talents, everyone has different results. Magic has different branches in it, and you find your self on the way.
Get my book and dvd, start working. If you want to take it to next level, our shop sihirci.com has many more resources. You can also take private lessons from me. Just start…
There are many professional magicians out there but artistically there is very little. There is also very few who are technically good. Again same with show qualities. I think this is more because of our country, unfortunately we are not a country that thrives in art.
Yes, especially kids. Even tough I can not make them happen, its nice to hear peoples dreams. What they actually want is just to share.
I like many things but magic, I havent quit for a single day so yes, i will. I have other things that i want to do artistically but magic will be there.
To impress myself, thats really hard.
