Magic today

Magic today

Magic is an art. That's the bare bone truth of it. It involves misdirection, lots of planning and even more practice. But magic no longer becomes an art if you use it for self gain, for power or wealth. Then it becomes an elaborate scam. Dedi is a perfect example of this. He used illusions to benefit himself and lived a life of power and wealth because he deceived a king. But today magicians are much less deceiving and follow a set of rules. One of the main rules are to never deceive someone unless they allow you to. If you are ever interested in magic Penn and Tellers Fool Us TV show is a great place to be entertained. Today magic is not so influential in our everyday lives. We rarely see it on TV and things like video games and sport have taken our interest. But the small magic community today is growing quite steadily. Youtuber's like Shin Lim, Chris Ramsay and Ving Gingh are teaching the next generation of magicians in a unique and fun way. Magic conventions attract thousands of people from all over the world. People like David Blaine and Dyanmo are still managing to amaze people worldwide in a unique and talented way. Like throwing up a live frog or casually floating up the Eiffel tower. So yes maybe magic isn't as popular or influential as it was but that doesn't mean its gone. If you look hard enough you'll always find magicians out their ready to entertain. Whether its on the streets or on Tv magicians are always ready to trick and amaze you.
