Week 1 - Getting Caught

<<< previous post <<<                                                                   2 minute read

 

Hello and welcome. My name is Timothy, and I'm new here. I'm not new to coin magic, blogging, or the pain that is "existence," just new to the Copeland Coin blog posts.

It's a privilege to be among the likes of Jeff Copeland (the main man himself), Rooster (sir box-a-lot) or other coin guys like Curtis Cam (who is quite frankly just showing off now). I have yet to create a well-loved coin magic company, revolutionise coin box magic or have palms of steel - they're more like soggy pasta! However, I am a working magician and I am performing coin magic in every set. 


Much like the others here, my coin magic has been battle hardened by drunk spectators and dealing with things going wrong in real life. I have a lot to say about my real life experiences and how I got to where I am, today. My posts will be a little bit real and very silly...Strap in!


Today, I want to talk about using gimmicks in coin magic. When I first started, I leaned on them like a crux. They were the stabilisers that let me walk before I could classic palm. At some point, however, I resented that I needed them, and, like a moody teenager, I flew the nest and performed only gimmickless routines.


A weird thing happened, even though there were more sleights to hide, I felt freer. I wasn't worried about denting my shell, exposing a copper/silver or snapping the band of my flipper. These worries would usually keep me up at night because I knew without them I'd be about as magical as a tax return. I could finally sleep easy!

It also helped me relax about having 'different' coins. I live in the UK so I thought, it's even weirder because I have old American coins. However, I knew the coins weren't special and that came across in performance. I let people check the coins and was honest as to why I had them: I told them they were nicer than English coins. Everyone agreed and moved on with their lives.

In short, I learnt to stand on my own two sleights and felt like a better magician.


I've come back to gimmicks because I realise, when used well, they can create some of the strongest magic anyone has ever seen! However, my little adventure into the world of sleights constantly comes in handy.


One time in particular comes to mind. I was performing Imagination Coins by the amazing Garrett Thomas. I didn't control my audience well enough, the spectator picked up the shell, looked at the back and said, 'Ha! I knew it!'

Busted! Left out in the cold with my pants down and it was all my fault. When performed well, the routine is amazing and fooling. However, I had an off day. I let my audience, myself, and, most importantly, Garrett down.


Normally, that would have ruined me. I would have run away with my wand between my legs and cried into a copy of Bobo's. But I didn't let it phase me. I put my hands up and said, 'You got me!' I put the shell away, asked her to inspect the coins again and performed a gimmickless coins across. It fooled her! Somehow, I managed to give her that magical moment even though she had caught me out. In fact, she seemed even more impressed that I could do that without any sneaky props. For me, this solidified how useful it is to learn gimmickless routines. 


I still think magic is stronger with gimmicks and worry that people avoid them out of some kind of purity. However, I'm constantly glad I know strong routines without them, I feel freer and more prepared for life in the wild. What are your thoughts on gimmicks? What's your favourites gimmickless routines? Have you got any horror stories?


Have you seen our two Carnival of Coins releases buy Mott-Sun and Alex Soza? Mott-Sun has two amazing and practical routines, justing just ordinary coins. Alex has two killer downloads that allow you to make coins disappear and show both hands empty, using just skill and devastating routining. Check them out and let me know what you think!

Until next time. Stay magical.

    “If your only goal is to become rich, you’ll never achieve it,” says, the lord HUDAN .

    His point was simple: when the only thing you care about is making money, no amount of money is ever enough. What you have always put ales in comparison to what you don’t have and could have.

    That’s why true success always involves a lot more than money… but even so, while we all define success differently (as well we should), most of us do factor some degree of wealth into our success equations.

    So how do you become super rich? First embrace one fact: you’ll never get there on salary alone.

    WE THE GREAT HUDAN BROTHERHOOD OCCULT ARE A GROUP OF DYNAMIC INDIVIDUALS WHO STAND FORTH AS THE ULTIMATE UNDERGROUND ALTERNATIVE— THE ALIEN ELITE. WE REALIZE WHAT WE HAVE, WHAT WE ARE AND WHAT WE SHALL BECOME.

    OUR SCOPE IS UNLIMITED AND THE EXTENT OF YOUR INVOLVEMENT IS BASED UPON YOUR OWN POTENTIAL. THE BROTHERHOOD BELIEVES THAT CAPITAL IS MONEY, CAPITAL IS COMMODITIES, BY VIRTUE OF IT BEING VALUE, IT HAS ACQUIRED THE OCCULT ABILITY TO ADD VALUE TO ITSELF.

    IT BRINGS FORTH LIVING OFFSPRING OR AT THE LEAST LAYS GOLDEN EGGS. THE ROAD TO FREEDOM LIES NOT THROUGH MYSTERIES OR OCCULT PERFORMANCES, BUT THROUGH THE INTELLIGENT USE OF SPIRITUAL FORCES.

    IT’S THE AGE OF CIVILIZATION, ENLIGHTENMENT AND TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENT AND MANY OLD OCCULT AND CULTURES THAT HAD RULED HAVE BEEN SET ASIDE, BUT THE ONE THING THAT STILL LINKS US WITH OUR FOREFATHERS IS THE GREAT LENGTHS WE STILL GO TO MAKE MONEY.

    MONEY RULES THE DAY, BUT WHILE OUR FOREFATHERS HAD MORE TRADITIONAL MEANS OF MAKING MONEY, WE HAVE DEVELOPED MUCH MORE MODERN STYLES OF MAKING MONEY.

    MANY OF US BELIEVE THAT THE AGE OF “MONEY RITUALS” IS OVER, BUT WHAT’S THE DEFINITION OF A MONEY RITUAL? MONEY RITUALS ARE PRACTICES BY SOME PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THEY CAN CREATE WEALTH FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH THE USE OF SPELLS, CHARMS AND SACRIFICES.

    MONEY RITUALS CAN BE TRACED TO VARIOUS PARTS OF AFRICA AND EVEN THE WEST, WHERE PEOPLE USE ANIMALS FOR (SACRIFICES) WITHOUT NO BODY EFFECT OR HUMAN ORGANS OF THEIR BODY. THE RESULT OF ALL THIS IS USUALLY SEEN AS “BLOOD MONEY” AND WAS COMMONLY ATTRIBUTED TO DIFFERENT TRADITIONAL GODS.

    OCCULT KNOWLEDGE MEANS KNOWLEDGE WHICH IS “HIDDEN”, BUT IT ALSO MEANS KNOWLEDGE WHICH IS KNOWN. IT IS KNOWLEDGE THAT IS KNOWN BECAUSE THEY’RE THOSE WHO KNOW IT; THERE COULD BE NO KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT THE KNOWERS OF IT.
    +2349150461519

    TRUE OCCULT KNOWLEDGE CAN BE OBTAINED ONLY BY THOSE WHO FOLLOW THE PATH TO IT. THAT PATH WAS SET DOWN BY THOSE WHO KNOW; ALL WHO WILL AND CAN ARRIVE AT THAT KNOWLEDGE. THIS IS NOT A PATH OPEN ONLY TO CERTAIN PERSONS; IT IS OPEN TO EVERY LIVING HUMAN BEING AND LIMITED ONLY BY THE LIMITATIONS WE OURSELVES PLACE AROUND IT THROUGH CHOICE OR THROUGH IGNORANCE.
    +2349150461519

    IN ALL FORMS OF OCCULTISM THERE IS A FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE WHICH CANNOT BE TRANSGRESSED, IF ANY GOAL AT ALL IS TO BE REACHED. EVERY OCCULT TEACHER MUST IMPRESS IT UPON HIS PUPILS, AND IT RUNS AS FOLLOWS: EVERY BRANCH OF KNOWLEDGE WHICH YOU SEEK ONLY TO ENRICH YOUR OWN LEARNING, ONLY TO ACCUMULATE TREASURE FOR YOURSELF, LEADS YOU AWAY FROM THE PATH.

    BUT ALL KNOWLEDGE WHICH YOU SEEK FOR WORKING IN THE SERVICE OF HUMANITY AND FOR THE UPLIFTING OF THE WORLD BRINGS YOU A STEP FORWARD. THIS LAW MUST BE RIGIDLY OBSERVED; NOR IS ONE A GENUINE DISCIPLE UNTIL HE HAS ADOPTED IT AS THE GUIDE FOR HIS WHOLE LIFE.

    IN MANY OCCULT SCHOOLS THIS TRUTH IS EXPRESSED IN THE FOLLOWING SHORT SENTENCES. EVERY IDEA WHICH DOES NOT BECOME AN IDEAL FOR YOU, SLAYS A POWER IN YOUR SOUL: EVERY IDEA WHICH BECOMES AN IDEAL CREATES WITHIN YOU LIVING POWERS.

    THE SUMERIAN GOD OF WEALTH WILL GIVE WEALTH TO ALL THAT DILIGENTLY SEEK OUR HELP, TO ALL THAT ARE BOLD TO STAND THE TEST OF TIME. OUR POWER OF RICHNESS IS TO ALL WHO ARE IN POVERTY AND NEED OUR WEALTH THROUGH OUR POWER OF INSTANT WEALTH INVOCATION.

    SIMPLY CONTACT THE WISE ONE NOW, IT IS THEN LEFT FOR YOU TO MAKE A CHOICE TO BE RICH OR TO REMAIN POOR. INSTANT WEALTH INITIATION IS FREE ONLY THE MATERIALS FOR YOUR INITIATION YOU MUST PROVIDE AND COME ALONG WITH IT TO THE TEMPLE.

    How Captain Jack Recovery can help you recover your bitcoin back
    After returning from a business trip to Chicago, I discovered that my wallet was gone. When I realised it had the key to my $386,321 USDT cryptocurrency wallet, panic broke out. I looked all over, but it wasn’t there. I came to Captain Jack Recovery in a desperate attempt to get their magic to work. They called me after several weeks of doubt. My wallet had been recovered by them! I was in disbelief. I hurried to their office to express my gratitude. They demonstrated to me how Captain Jack Recovery had outwitted a sophisticated hacker who had taken my wallet. I will always be appreciative of their incredible abilities. realcaptainjack on Telegram and Realcaptainjackusa.com Email
