Subject: Re: [Derren Brown] Re: exposing magic secrets
A good counter arguement! but simply finding out the 'answer' doesnt meen that
you find out the periferals surrounding it. If you go through the process of
learning the concept slowly you'll surely discover more!
Besides, anything worth aquiring thats handed to you on a plate doesnt have the
same sense of achievement as something that youve had to slave away at.
Well,i supose we're all different, thank god!
na na ( once again the spellings dire, but i cant be bothered to spell check
it, ahh, the perils of being lazy!)
"Suggestionist wrote:What?! The
excitement does not lie within the answer? Think about it! Your a
magician , you see a trick on TV that you don't know how it is done , you go
buy a book / sign up to a forum / buy a video and you open it up / wait for the
page to load / put the tape in...Then , at last...you find out how it is
done...YOUR EXCITED!
And likewise for a spectator , if they go find it out. They'll probably say
"Ahhh ,
yeah , I can see that now. Thats really cool." or "Oh yeah , its sooo easy".
Either way , you are excited.
Yeah , Okay. The truth about the trick is cool too , but the point is that you
either want to know how it is done so as you can do it (magician) or you want
to know because your a person-who-wants-toknow-how-but-is-not-a-
magician.
I bet you most people would disagree with that because , they say - and I
would agree with them - that magic isn't just about finding out the secret(s).
Its
about performing and what-not. But still , how can you say it is not exciting
to
know the answer if you really are desperate to find out?
I used to be searching through every book and website to find Derren's
secrets out , but once you do , you realize that you have to practice and some
of the stuff he does cannot be done by a lot of people in the world / forum.
Once you find out the secret...THATS when you have to understand it and find
out about the truth but before that , your still gonna be excited.
Anyway , sorry for the long post...
