7:30 PM CT For over 50 years, Bruce Kalver has been in the magic business entertaining in theaters, cruise ships and every living room in RI where there was a birthday party. His teacher and grandfather was a builder and secret assistant for Houdini. Bruce is well known among magicians as a tech guru, constantly seeking magical uses for new technology. His lectures are always a sell out at S.A.M. conventions. His Tech Tricks column is the first thing that many people go to in MUM magazine. You may know him for his Growing and Shrinking Head Spiral or his portable Pepper’s Ghost illusion that he performs in the Parlour of Prestidigitation.

For best results, create a free Zoom account and use a computer with a microphone, camera, and headphones. An iPhone or Android smartphone will also work. Members without either can dial-in by phone to participate aurally only. Tonight's meeting will discuss theory, practice, and maybe even the philosophy of holiday magic. Do some holidays inherently invite displays of conjuring? Are there some holidays for which magic shows are inappropriate? What are your favorite holiday effects? Do you have a few holiday works in progress? Come prepared to share your ideas and to (constructively!) critique others' effects. Keep in mind, we're talking about magic for any holiday - Christmas, Hanukkah, Easter, St. Patrick's Day, Arbor Day... unleash your creativity!

If you are a working magician, a magic mentor, or you just want to stay connected with other magicians through jam sessions. Learn with James Ember (James the Magician) as he speaks on performing magic virtually. James will go over the pros and cons of different performance platforms and setting up your space to perform in, based on your goals. Along with different ways to monetize your produced shows and how to setup private shows. He will also cover pros and cons of performing for a camera vs performing for a live audience along with framing (blocking) your show for the camera and different ways to interact with the audience through a camera. He will go over how performing for the camera now will help us improve our in person show. Throughout the lecture James will perform pieces from his show that he has been running for private parties through Zoom. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn conjuring into the camera.

One of the very few female members of the magic arts, Alexandra Duvivier has been the winner of the Mandrake d’Or in France and the first French female magician to fool Penn and Teller in their famous American television show “Fool Us”. The daughter of Dominique Duvivier, a living legend in magic, she faced a double challenge: to make a name for herself under the shadow of her illustrious father and to become a highly respected artist in the predominantly masculine world of magic. Unlike many children who grow up with a talented and famous parent, her father didn’t push her to become a magician like himself. As a child he never showed her any tricks: it was only at the age of 15 that Alexandra decided to become, little by little, the worthy heiress of her father’s empire. She has become a favorite artist of the biggest brands for their private events (Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, L'Oréal ...), has been a hand double for some of the most famous names in the cinema, she has no less than eight shows to her credit: three solo stage shows, three shows performed as a double act with her father, a children’s show and a show performed entirely in English. With her sharp humor, her pure and engaging magic, her natural empathy with both young and old, she charms and amuses her ever-increasing audiences. Beyond her artistic talents, Alexandra Duvivier is also a trainer and a business speaker (innovative methods of communication using magic) and an instructor for the first-ever diploma in magic recognized by the Ministry of Labor in France. We will open the virtual meeting room 10 minutes before the meeting.
