Close-Minded
by Andi Gladwin


Studying Marlo
Marlo is a legend, but there are ways to get even more from the master. Andi shows you how!

Andi Gladwin's Convention Survival Guide
To quote a cetrain commerical tagline: "Don't leave home without it"! 'Nuff said.

Wassups and Warm-Ups
It's magic, not boxing, basketball, or long-distance running. But warming-up is still important. Beyond the "why" and into the "how", Andi discusses warm-ups and their place in your pre-show work.

Routining
This month, Andi shows how he goes about accomplishing the wonderful thing known as "routining" and what it takes to make one effect flow to the next.

Virtual Reality Preview: Inside Out
Andi's typically creative and off-beat mind gets applied to a card trick where a single card turns inside-out!

Comedy
In Andi's article this month, he takes a serious look at comedy in his most controversial piece to date!

Reactions
This month, Andi takes an in-depth, insider look at audience reactions: what they are, what they mean, and why we get what we get from our audiences! Must-reading for any performer!

Practicing
Practicing is a way of life for magicians -- comes with the territory of trying to master the impossible. Andi takes a look at getting the most out of the time you spend becoming perfect!

Audience Encounters
A lot is said about proper audience management, but exactly how do you start mastering that fine art? By reading Andi's great intro to the subject, of course!

You Can Count On Elmsley
Probably the most revered of flase counts, The Elmsley, comes under Andi's explorative microscope in this wonderful examination of that venerable sleight.

The "Oh Sh*t" Kit
Okay, so you've got your bags packed, your decks loaded, your gimmicks arranged in order by size... but are you ready for anything? Andi takes a look into his "special kit" -- and lists some things you could consider "oh sh*t" insurance.
