3. Joan Caesar Taking Over As Head Of 4F In 2022
--------------------------------------------
Message by Obie O'Brien (US)
I
would like to announce that Joan Caesar, my executive assistant,
will be taking my place as head of 4F beginning in 2022.
Given my current health situation, I have asked Joan to
(effective immediately) coordinate with me and my family,
the remaining convention details and actions necessary to
ensure a very successful 50th year celebration in April.
Together we have built a legacy that has served the international
close-up magic community extremely well. 4F convention structures
and frameworks are in place. It is my deepest and sincere
desire that this tradition be continued and to work towards
upholding the 4F legacy.
--------------------------------------------
4. Message From O'Brien's Family On 4Fs
--------------------------------------------
Message by The O'Brien Family (US)
Obie's
love for the close-up magic community has created a very
unique environment, bringing together many talented and
gifted individuals from around the world to gather annually
each April. The pending celebration of the 50th convention
year is a tribute to what has been created. The past conventions
could only have been successful with the contributions and
attendance of some of the best magicians from around the
world. The O'Brien family, like Obie, deeply desires that
this magic community do everything that it possibly can
to provide the continued legacy of 4F.
In closing, the O'Brien family sends a very heartfelt thank
you to each and every one of you for helping Obie to live
a life with magic that provided much passion and purpose.
We thank you in advance for your thoughts and prayers. It
might be helpful to know that Obie's spirits are lifted
when he hears from you. If you would like to reach out,
his emails are being reviewed and shared with him. His email
address is rjobie@gisco.net. A letter or card can be sent
to: Obie O'Brien, 6993 Muirfield Rd, Hilton Head Island,
SC 29928.

7. Tourbillon By P Hill Smith - John Carey #132
-------------------------------------------
Message by John Carey (UK)
http://www.johncareymagic.co.uk/
Effect:
"Give
me a number between one and ten." you say.
"Seven."
They reply.
"Seven?
In a minute you are going to deal through these cards, I
just want to show you how:" you start dealing. "One
at a time, clean, into a pile: one, two, three, four, five,
six, seven. Understand?" You put the deck on top of
the dealt pile and slide it to the spectator. "OK now
you know, I want you to think of a number between ten and
fifty two. Got one? Just to randomize it a little, I want
you to take the two digits of that larger number, add them
together, and minus that from the original number - you
can use the calculator on your phone if you want. What did
you end up with?"
"Thirty
six."
"OK,
keep that number in mind. Now, you said seven earlier right?
Imagine we have the four Sevens on the table - the red Sevens
just here and the black Sevens just here. Pick up either
colour
what did you get?"
"The
red Sevens."
"So
that's the Seven of Hearts and the Seven of Diamonds. Hand
me either one."
"The
Seven of Diamonds."
"Wonderful,
we'll use that as our prediction. Remember, you randomly
picked the seven at the beginning right?" They nod.
"And you picked that big number at random and randomised
it even more, and those two choices have no connection?
Picking the Seven of Diamonds had nothing to do with picking
the number thirty six? I want you to deal down to the thirty
sixth card."
They
deal carefully through the deck exactly as you demonstrated.
You slide the thirty sixth card towards you. "The prediction
was - the Seven of Diamonds? Remember you could have had
Any Card At Any Number®?"
"Yes!"
You
flip over the thirty sixth card and it is the Seven of Diamonds.
Method:
The
method is simple(ish) and self-working and with a relative
minimum of fuss gets you to the ACAAN unpack.
First
of all, set up the deck like this (from the top) nine random
cards, Ace to Nine of Spades, Ace to Nine of Hearts, Ace
to Nine of Clubs, Ace to Nine of Diamonds, rest of the deck.
This
stack will automagically ensure that, if you follow the
instructions above, whatever number card they pick at the
beginning will be at the correct position at the end. TRUST.
The initial demonstration deal preps the deck so that the
cards with a value that matches their number are now at
positions 9, 18, 27 and 36. These just happen to be the
numbers you will get using the multiple-of-nine force, so
that's exactly what you do. All you need to do is to force
the correct *suit*. How do you know the correct suit? It's
pretty easy. If the number is 9 the suit is Spades, 18 is
Hearts, 27 is Clubs and 36 is Diamonds. There's a way to
remember this, but I'll put it at the end.
The
suit force is verbal and accomplished using the classic
magician's force, hinging on ambiguity. Have them visualise
the red and black cards and ask them to take either. If
they take the force colour, continue with the cards in their
hands. If they don't, have them put those cards in their
pocket and continue with the cards on the table. The next
step is to have them hand you either of the force colour
cards - if they hand you the force suit, that will be the
prediction. If they don't, pocket the wrong (imaginary)
card, and explain that the tabled card is the prediction.
Maximising
the impact of the effect is all about emphasising the freedom
of choice at the end and highlighting the independence of
the choices. Ganbatte!
Extra:
How
to remember the suit you need to force: Each suit has a
numerical value based on the pip. A spade has one point,
a heart has two curves, a club has three balls and a diamond
has four corners. Spade is one, Heart is two, Club is three,
Diamond is four. Now, when they have their final number,
look at the difference between that number and the next
ten, and that number is the suit. For nine, the difference
between nine and ten is one, so that number is the Spade.
For eighteen, the difference between eighteen and twenty
is two, so that number is the Heart. Twenty seven, the difference
is three, so Clubs, and for thirty six the difference is
Easy right?

9. Academy Of Illusions 24hr Web Stream
--------------------------------------------
Message by Jay Scott Berry (Australia)
Wolfgang
von Goethe said, "Whatever you can do or dream you
can do, begin it; Boldness has genius, power, and magic
in it." 18 months ago, when conditions were dramatically
shifting, I made a decision to turn crisis into opportunity,
and let adversity fuel my determination. That bold beginning
set in motion an extraordinary series of events, from last
year's Webcasting Wizardry and Art of Wonder Web Series,
to this year's Zoom shows, mentoring and lectures. All of
this momentum culminated yesterday in the grand opening
of the Academy of Illusions.
To
celebrate, we set up 11 Live Web Streams, via Zoom, to our
FB Page, over a 24 hour period. As the host, I interviewed
faculty members, students and an honoured guest. From the
first to the last, it was a non-stop masterclass in the
greater art of magic, which included very few effects. Instead
we focused on acting, theatre, character development, costume,
the business of show, advertising, routining, psychology,
philosophy and, most important, the commitment to excellence
one must make, to become a true artist.
The
virtual hit parade began with Scott Cuthbertson, longtime
friend, colleague and now, professor. Out of the gates,
we set the pace with a 45 minute, upbeat discussion, reminiscing
about the past, defining the present and imagining the future.
Next up was Academy Co-Founder and Director, Tommillusions.
With dynamic flair, he boldly explained our principles and
philosophy, likening the Academy to the Shaolin Temple of
Magic.
From
there, I shifted focus to some of my students and mentees,
doing individual interviews with Austin Moody, Eric Stevens,
Daz Buckley and Joel Howlett. We discussed, in detail, how
each was able to manifest their dream of becoming professional
magicians.
Next
up was a rare interview with Grand Master, Alan Watson.
Joining me from Auckland, New Zealand, we talked about his
extraordinary career, accomplishments, accolades and awards.
He freely shared priceless information and knowledge, gained
from many years of experience.
The
last six interviews with Academy professors went from strength
to strength. Romany joined me from her country cottage in
England, discussing life, career and her bestselling book.
Arthur Tivoli, from the South of France, talked about his
many wonderful years performing in Cabarets, nightclubs
and Disneyland Paris. Without skipping a beat, Eva May and
Roger Nicot, from Southwest England, each discussed their
unique journey to becoming master magicians.
In
show business, it's always good to save the best for last.
Yet, in all my planning, I never imagined how timeless the
final session would be. Without a single scripted word,
Anthony Darkstone, Bob Fitch and I embarked upon a marathon
masterclass on the method behind the magic. We've already
agreed that this session is required viewing for all students.
As
the virtual dust settles, the common thread is that, by
creating this virtual Academy, we are doing what has never
been done before; because it never could have been done
before. We are embracing, and applying, the most advanced
technologies to teach, and pass on, the most ancient of
arts. And, that technology means that all these recordings
are available to watch, for free, on the Academy FB Page
now. How cool is that? www.Facebook.com/AcademyofIllusions
So,
we are off and running, hitting the ground at full speed.
The first Zoomstorming Sessions start on Saturday, and the
Darkstone Dossiers Mini-Series begins on Sunday. Further
details are always available on the FB Page and website:
www.AcademyofIllusions.com
As
the faculty braintrust writes our Code of Honour, three
founding principles are clear: The Academy Motto of Excelsior:
reaching ever higher, the Pledge: "Make a Commitment
to Excellence. Keep it", and that, "We stand upon
the shoulders of giants, and are all bound, by honour, to
see farther."

11. No Stone Unturned - Paul Stone - Article #25
--------------------------------------------
Message by Paul Stone (US)
As
I write this, I have just got back from a fun lunch celebrating
Fielding West's Birthday. He refused point blank to say
how old he was, but he did tell us that he was born in 1949!
A Las Vegas fixture for many years, Fielding is still going
strong and 'Bob the bird' hasn't yet fallen off his perch!
Also
at this very select gathering were Bill Smith, fresh from
producing the highly successful Collectors Magic Expo, Stan
Allen who is quietly planning and masterminding another
great 'Magic Live' which is taking place next May, Charlie
& Sherry Frye just back from performing in Montana,
Lupe Nielsen thankfully now looking really well and Richard
Faverty, photographer supreme.
Come
to think of it, between us all there was a huge amount of
magical expertise and experience.
A
couple of days ago I was chatting with my good friend Bob
Kohler and we got onto the subject of which magic dealers
we thought were the best 'demmers'.
The
first name to come up was Al Cohen from Washington DC. He
ran Al's Magic Shop for over 50 years and had a clientele
which included Presidents and many celebrities. Al lived
to the ripe old age of 94. His warm, easy going and very
likeable personality belied an extremely talented magician
and a great salesman.
I
grew up and was mentored by Ken Brooke at his 'Magic Place'
in London. Like Al, Ken was a highly skilled magician which,
when combined with the instincts and attributes of a classic
pitchman, meant that once you were hooked, he'd never let
you go without buying something!
It's
tough to top either of these legendary magic dealers, but
there is someone who is right up there with them both. His
name, Mark Mason. Mark is not only an outstanding performer
and demonstrator, but he possesses one other essential talent,
he knows exactly how to close a sale.
Just
as Ken did, Mark learnt his trade the hard way, pitching
all kinds of products on market stalls, and that experience
has certainly paid off for him. If you watch Mark 'demming'
at a convention, you'll witness nothing short of a masterclass.
He grafts for hours on end and his energy seems to know
no bounds. And he's one of the nicest guys in the business
too!
Mention
of Ken Brooke brings me to a special announcement. Ken would
have celebrated his 100th Birthday last October and I had
planned to release a Limited Edition of one of Ken's signature
tricks, with a custom 'KB100' design to mark the occasion.
But,
due to a combination of Covid and the difficulty of getting
anything produced, unfortunately I wasn't able to do so.
However,
I am delighted to tell you that a special custom Ken Brooke
100 'Sidewalk Shuffle', limited to just 100 sets, is now
available.
These
large cards with a striking 'KB100' back design are perfect
for both performers and collectors alike. They are screen
printed on durable polypropylene, and handle really well.
Sidewalk
Shuffle was one of Ken's favourite effects, and he loved
to perform it. It is ideal for Cabaret, Parlour, Tradeshows,
and even Close-up, and it's also a great trick for Zoom
shows.

12. The Orchante Saga - Beginnings
-------------------------------------
Written by the late Tommy Orchard (The Amazing Orchante)
Fiji
Colonel Rabuka declared himself head of an interim military
government and introduced a new constitution, under which
blocs of seats in a new assembly were allocated to specific
ethnic
groups, thereby guaranteeing a Taukei majority. Under this
format, the 1992 elections brought to power a coalition
dominated by the principal ethnic Fijian party; Rabuka assumed
the Premiership. However under domestic and international
pressure, the Rabuka government made several modifications
to the constitution, and to guarantee equal rights for all.
By the time the revised version came into effect in 1998,
Fiji's poor economic performance had undermined the Rabuka
Government's popularity. The Fijian Labour Party was now
able to secure an absolute majority in the Vela and an Indian
Prime Minister, Mahendra Chaudhry, took office. The result
was anathema to militant Taukei, including businessman George
Speight, who had lost lucrative franchises, because of the
change in government.
In
May 2000, Speight organised a coup, holding Chaudhry and
other ministers as hostages while he issued a series of
demands. The other main power centres in Fiji at this point
- the army and the Great Council of Chiefs - reacted cautiously.
The standoff lasted two months. After initially conceding
to most of the rebel demands (including the dismissal of
Chaudhry), the military led
by Commodore Frank Bainamarama, took control at the beginning
of July. A few weeks later, the military moved against Speight
and his followers, who were arrested. An interim government
under the veteran Taukei politician Ratu Josefa Iioilo was
installed with Lisenia Qarase, as Premiere.
Following
the elections in August 2001, a coalition government was
formed between the conservative Alliance Party and the Fiji
United Party, despite the fact that most votes were won
by the Labour Party; Laisenia Qare remained as Prime Minister.
The islands have since enjoyed reasonable stability after
the chaos of the previous two years, although nothing has
been done to
address the underlying causes of this chaos. The Indian
community now suffers systematic discrimination and is effectively
excluded from political power.
So
there you have it, a rather lengthier than I intended, but
thorough discourse. In case you have forgotten (for which
I can't really blame you, I applaud your patience), it was
all triggered by the line: 'Bloody officious Indians had
other ideas', Remember? When we arrived in Fiji in 1976,
the Fijians had very little say in the making of decisions,
on any matter, whether it is political or otherwise, because
Fiji was being run by the Indians. Frankly, I was amazed
by the amount of petty bureaucracy, because it certainly
wasn't there on my previous, lengthy visits to Fiji.
Apart
from the discrimination factor, which I personally disagree
with, I curse the fact, and our rotten luck, that the bureaucratic
Indians had not yet been excluded from politics etc. when
Veronica and I arrived in Fiji, to work with Eric at the
resort. Their unreasonable, officious attitude cost us a
lot of money, for which - I'll never forgive them! When
Gorge Speight kicked off in 2000, I cheered with delight;
if I'd been a mercenary, you wouldn't have seen me for dust;
I'd have been there, right beside him, with all 'six guns
blazing'!
Continues
next week.
