Correcting Richard Kaufman and Exciting Helicopter Card News

Hi all,

First I wanted to express my deepest excitement and gratitude to Georges Proust of France for the upcoming shipment and release of the “Slydini by Slydini” video box set. In the September 2024 issue of Genii, Georges has a wonderful interview that I highly recommend everyone read. I of course, would also recommend you check out the video box set itself. I have purchased my set and you too can purchase it at: https://museedelamagie.com/souscription-slydini-by-slydini/

Slydini and his only sponsored protege, Bill Wisch

I do, however, need to correct Mr. Richard Kaufman of Genii Magazine. In the September, 2024 edition of Genii Speaks, he writes: “Slydini was unique, and these films are the first time we have him explaining his own techniques rather than having them filtered through a third party.” Unfortunately, this is an error. He would have been correct had he mentioned that it is the first time “on video”. In September of 2020, I began releasing audio clips of my unreleased 38 hours of audio footage of my lessons with Slydini. In several clips, Slydini himself discusses his theories and philosophy of magic with no, as Richard puts it, “filter(ing) through a third party.” You can find the five clips on my Youtube channel in the following playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMuQKDSDVnQuLOIZMpOKmYJDbPLPspZD1

Finally, I wanted to give you the heads up of some exciting news. If you have shown interest in my “Bill Wisch’s Definitive Lesson on Slydini’s Helicopter Card”, expect to receive an email soon with more details. If you have not expressed interest yet, please email me at bill@wisch-craft.com to do so.

Until next time,

Bill
