Such a beautiful insight from Jazz Musician Dizzy Gillespie, completely applicable to our endeavours.
Music is the harmonic combination of sounds and silence, and Mystery Performance is also based in the harmonic combination of needed words and silence.
Silence is an essential space of nothingness in which the presence of Mystery can appear. What I mean by that? I will not explain it you , just take a moment of silence and see for yourself.
That infinite void beyond the mind is the Mystery that brings awe and moves us into the uncertain, the unknown, and thats what we are creating in every piece of Mystery Performance that we do. Magic and Mentalism are beautiful artistic and aesthetic explorations that lead towards that moment of expansion, that experience of astonishment that we can let others feel.
That is why scripting is so powerful. You can prepare both the needed words and the silences so you can truly squeeze all the potential in your performance pieces. It doesnt matter if you are doing sponge balls as Magicians or Q&A as a Mentalist. Playing Cards, business cards, drawings, words, images, predictions, psychokinesis, levitations, every tool and phenomena contains an unique potential to explore.
Prepare yourself to greatness and study with us!
