Par Tom Stone

Livre en anglais.

A whirlwind of routines, tricks, ideas and opinions-- Inspired and inspiring.

Open this book and you enter the mind of Tom Stone, one of Sweden's finest professional magicians and one of the world's most wildly innovative magical thinkers. Within a few pages you will be swept up and carried away by the creative whirlwind that is constantly blowing in Stone's brain. As you are whipped from idea to idea you will be exposed to a level of professional thinking that leaves no area of magic untouched, from close-up to stage, from manipulation to psychology, routining to prop construction, presentation to stagecraft.

Challenging ideas demanding thought and development vie for attention with routines honed over years of performance. Vortex is a chronicle of a full-time performer's creative journey, with its fruits and challenges, presented with the intent that every reader will continue the adventure.

Vortex cuts a swath across the entire map of magic, from close-up to platform and stage. While doing so, Stone shows how these boundaries can be crossed, taking effects from one venue and adapting them to play successfully in another. The material in Vortex displays a unique melding of artistic ideals with realistic professionalism, guided by many years of performing experience.

Explained is everything from card tricks designed for three or four persons to sleek manipulation routines devised for hundreds in a theater. Among the more than 70 ideas explained in Vortex are signature pieces from Tom Stone's repertoire, such as :

Gold Wielder, a linking finger-ring handling that avoids all the usual weaknesses and difficulties
Ambivalent Travelers and Mr. Fogg, two brilliant and practical approaches to the ""Ambidextrous Travellers""
A Toast for Charon, an elegant coin production finishing with the surprising appearance of a full bottle of wine
Benson Burner, which transforms ""Benson's Bowl"" into a striking stage piece with a visually stunning final production

Vortex is a record of artistic and creative quests, frustrations, triumphs and introspection, made by one of the most articulate minds thinking in magic today.

270 pages, 504 illustrations, in hardcover.

"... after reading Vortex I just want to sit and talk with Mr. Stone about whatever-magic, stagecraft, secrets, art-and to tell him personally that he has written a terrific and inspiring book of magic." – Eric Mead, Genii Magazine 8/1/2010

"The book is both a breath of fresh air in magic... No matter what kind of magic you perform, I think you will find much to stimulate you in Vortex. It has my highest recommendation." – Matthew Field, The Magic Circular Magazine 9/1/2010
