My Dreams Are My Dress Rehearsals For

Magic Is Used In Espionage, All The Time, For Clandestine Things. I've Got A Whole Library From A Gentleman Who Was Hired By The Cia To Create Magic Technology For The Use Of Anti-terrorism.

Science And Technology Were Often Used By [the Magician Of Old], Even Before They Came Into The Marketplace On A Mass Basis. For Example, Prior To The Moving Picture Going Into Theatre, Magicians Were Using The Technique Of Images In Motion As Illusions In Their Shows.

Hence, You Always Need To Stay One Step Ahead Of The Technology Game To "wow" The Audience.

Magic Was A Thing That, When I Did It, It Made All The Kids Go, "ah, That's Cool."

Usually, About Two Years Of Work Go Into Each Illusion, Whether It's Big Or Small. Two Years Of Work On Each Five-minute Piece.
