Title: How Magic Has Changed In The Last 20 Years


1
How Magic Changed Over The Last Two Decades

  • Every magician has his own story of how he got
    into magic. However, many of them share the same
    story. Some were inspired to learn magic tricks
    because they happen to see a live presentation
    during an event and they got curious about it.
    Whilst, some of them have seen a famous magic
    show on television and they got stunned with the
    outstanding performance of the professional
    Canadian magician.

  • While reading my favorite book about magic, a
    very interesting question crossed my mind. I was
    wondering what things have changed in magic over
    the last two decades.
  • Magic is believed to have originated in 2500 B.C.
    During the ancient times, Egyptian magicians used
    different magic tricks to entertain and mesmerize
    their audience.

TV shows
  • As far as I can remember, during the last two
    decades, there were only a few television
    channels that aired TV magic shows. Today, you
    can watch different magicians performing on
    various magic shows aired on hundreds of
    television channels.

Magic has become more challenging
  • Gone were the days when you can easily blow your
    audience' mind by performing different simpler
    magic tricks. Once upon a time, a trick like
    trapping a sexy woman inside a box, cutting
    through the box using a couple of blades, and
    showing the empty box to your audience, or
    showing the woman alive, is enough to captivate
    your audience' attention and to make them believe
    that it was a real magic.
  • People of today are getting smarter and more
    observative. And because everyone already knows
    that this is just a trick, the game has become a
    bit more challenging. The magician or illusionist
    needs to be really good at his craft in order to
    amuse his audience.

Magic Performances
Learning magic
  • Before, you can only watch magic shows either
    through a television show or by attending an
    event with magic performances. Now, you can also
    be able to watch and enjoy different magic
    performances from all over the world through
    different video sites like YouTube.
  • Learning magic tricks today is a lot quicker and
    easier as compared to the last two decades. With
    the help of the internet, you can now easily
    download new magic tricks and techniques, study
    them and learn how to perform them. The
    availability of tutorial and video sites like
    YouTube also give aspiring magicians the
    opportunity to learn and master different tricks
    and techniques without having to formally be
    coached by a professional magician.

  • There may be a few things that have changed in
    magic over the past 20 years and there may be a
    lot of new tricks and techniques being performed
    but the traditions have almost stayed the same.
