Magic is like special effects live, and I love to perform, so it sounded like doing magic tricks were a good way to entertain people.

In my research, what I found most interesting was how common and ordinary magic was to people in the past.

Sometimes, magic is just someone spending more time on something than anyone else might reasonably expect.

Every time you perform a magic trick, you're engaging in experimental psychology. If the audience asks, 'How the hell did he do that?' then the experiment was successful.

It's very exciting to take magic into a new direction, whereas a lot of times magic comes from a place of sort of ego, like, 'Look what I can do that you can't do.' It kind of comes across that way a lot, and you're always trying to challenge the magician; you're always trying to figure out how the magician is doing it.

Magic's an art where you use slight of hand or illusion to create wonder. And I was just intrigued with that idea.

During the many centuries that magic, here on this planet, was presumed to have worked, there were at least as many theories as to how magic worked as there were cultures and religions.

Magic is the Special Olympics of entertainment.
