I'm inventing new principles. The audience has a point of view that no one can predict.

Everyone understands cards and relates to it. They have them in their homes and in their hands, so it makes them very accessible.

I have a bunch of islands in the Bahamas that we made into this amazing, magical place. And we have these birds; they're trained to do certain things on the island, which is awesome. These toucans had a baby toucan, and the baby toucan, every hour that you'd look at this toucan, he would change.

Science and technology were often used by [the magician of old], even before they came into the marketplace on a mass basis. For example, prior to the moving picture going into theatre, magicians were using the technique of images in motion as illusions in their shows. At that time the process was so new, an audience perceived it as magic. Also in the early stages of holograms magicians would use these images to baffle and mystify their fans. Hence, you always need to stay one step ahead of the technology game to "WOW" the audience.

Demonic figures and occult themes have disappeared from modern magic.

Magic was a thing that, when I did it, it made all the kids go, "Ah, that's cool."

I have always looked to movies and theatre for inspiration.
