Magician: Encyclopedia II - Intellectual rights to magic methods - Ethics

It should be noted that there are ethical issues associated with exposing magical methods publicly. The International Brotherhood of Magicians' Code of Ethics states: All members of the International Brotherhood of Magicians agree to oppose the willful exposure to the public of any principles of the Art of Magic, or the methods employed in any magic effect or illusion. Any individual who is, or is hoping to become, a professional or amateur paid magician is cautioned that performing exposures may result in exclusion fro ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Card sharp - Methods

Card sharps typically use methods also employed by magicians to keep control of the order of the cards or sometimes to control one specific card. Most, if not all, of these methods employ sleight of hand. Essential skills are the false shuffles and "false cuts" that appear to mix the deck but actually leave the cards in the same order. More advanced techniques include "culling", which is manipulating desired cards to the top or bottom of the deck, and "stacking", which puts ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Intellectual rights to magic methods - Trade secret

There are also laws related to trade secret and contract which may apply if a person exposing a magical method has a) been required to sign a contract when they learned the trick, or b) been taught the trick by another magician, who did so on the understanding that the learner was a magician planning to use it in their act. Although trade secret varies from state to state and country to country, it only protects information that is not publicly known and is intentionally kept confidential. For example, any method that is available in the public library is obviously not prote ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Chaos magic - Symbols and deities

Chaos magick is unique among magical traditions in that it does not attribute significance to any particular symbol or deity. Wicca and Thelema, for example, could not be what they are without the Mother goddess and Horus, respectively. In contrast, chaos magicians may (or may not) pick any concept or set of concepts to worship, invoke or evoke. Following the tenet that anything can have significance and hold magical power, chaos magic rituals have centered around symbols as diverse as the color Octarine, a single worn sock, or Harpo ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Chaos magic - History

The term chaos magick first appeared in print in the widely influential Liber Null by Peter Carroll, first published in 1978. In it, Carroll formulated several concepts on magic that were radically different from what was considered magical mysteries in the days of Crowley. This book, along with Psychonaut (1981) by the same author, remain important sourcebooks. Magicians who align themselves with these ideas call themselves Ch ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - The Legendary Dragon Timaeus - True Form of Timaeus

When Timaeus and both of the other Legendary Dragons, Hermos and Critias are in play, the Spell Card Legend of Heart will reveal itself and can be played to transform all three of the Legendary Dragons into their true forms, the Three Legendary Knights. Legendary Knight Timaeus can fuse with the power of any card, such as when he used Multiply to gain the strength of ten thousand warriors. The Eye of Timaeus was owned by Yugi Moto (Yugi Mutou in the English version of the manga and the Japanese versions) afte ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Chaos magic - Pre-History

Austin Osman Spare was initially involved with the Golden Dawn tradition, and its offshoots such as the O.T.O and Aleister Crowley's Argenteum Astrum but later broke with them to work independently. He would develop theory and practices which would, after his death, profoundly influence the Illuminates of Thanateros. Specifically, Spare developed the use of sigils, and techniques involving states of ecstasy (see gnosis below) to empower these. Spare also pioneered the development of a personal sacred alphabet, and was a talented artist who u ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Chaos magic - Magical paradigm shifting

Perhaps the most striking feature of chaos magic is the concept of the magical paradigm shift. Borrowing a term from philosopher Thomas Kuhn, Carroll made the technique of arbitrarily changing one's model (or paradigm) of magic a major concept of chaos magic. An example of a magical paradigm shift is doing a Lovecraftian rite, followed by using a technique from an Edred Thorsson book in the following ritual. These two magical paradigms are very different, but while the chaote is using one, he believes in it fully to the extent of ignoring al ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Chaos magic - The Gnostic state

A concept introduced by Carroll is the gnostic state, also referred to as gnosis. This is defined as a special state of consciousness that in his magic theory is what is necessary for working most forms of magic. This is a departure from older concepts which described energies, spirits or symbolic acts as the source of magical powers. The concept has an ancestor in the Buddhist concept of Samadhi, made popular in western occultism by Aleister Cr ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - The Belgariad - Series criticisms

While undoubtedly a hugely popular series, the Belgariad has often invoked criticism for what some feel is David Eddings' use of ethnic and racial stereotyping in the characteristics of some groups in the novels. Chief among these concerns is the depiction of the Angaraks an "almond-eyed, untrustworthy, and strange people" who are the main antagonists of the series and embody many of the stereotypes that were used for people of Asian descent. It should be noted, however, that when it came to actually depicting the Angaraks (as opposed to the ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Chaldea - Politics

The Chaldean influence was felt in Babylonian politics. Several 9th and 8th century BC Babylonian kings were of Chaldean origin. The Chaldeans formed some of the strongest resistance to Assyrian rule. King Marduk-apal-iddina II resisted the Assyrians in the times of Sargon II and the early years of Sennacherib. King Mushezib-Marduk was king just before Sennacherib's sack of Bayblon in 689 BC. When Babylonia finally reestablished its independence, it was under the Chaldean Dynasty of king Nabopolassar. After the conquest of Babylonia by the Persians, the Chaldeans ...

Magician: Encyclopedia II - Derren Brown - Other productions and publications

He has written two books on magic, Absolute Magic and Pure Effect. Absolute Magic is not so much about magical methodology as about how magicians can make their performances magical; it is written in a variety of styles, sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, but always thought provoking. He warns against an act that conveys the feeling of "Here are some tricks I've bought" and urges magicians to make their performances experiential and memorable by involving the audience. In some respects a lot of what he says is ...
