What is Magic? Magazine

Cover Art by Jeramie Bellmay - www.JeramieBellmay.com

“What is Magic?” is a question filled with questions followed by a question mark. A self-referential quandary comprising of constant feedback— of which we can enter into simply by asking.

Such mental exercises, much like thinking about thinking, or imagining the imagination, produces divergent thoughts which shoot out from their source in an endless flow and in infinite directions, as they pierce through minefields of quantum potential. To hop on for the ride forever remains a mere question away.

Though I have often posed this question to others in an informal way, for this particular project, I opted for a more formal approach. In the second section you will find responses from thirteen of my friends— each of whom has expanded my own views of magic over the past year. I asked for a one paragraph response, and gave a specific deadline. In the end, all obliged. The fourteenth response in this section can be found on a CD on the inside back cover of this publication.

Inspired by the sincerity, depth, and diversity of the responses I was receiving, I decided to expand the call to a larger population. Utilizing a variety of electronic means to spread the word, I began the “What Is Magic?” 48 Hour Challenge. This call to question yielded 39 responses, which can be found in the third and final section.

The first section contains excerpts from all of the responses I have received thus far, and is comprised of those statements that resonated the most with me at the moment I chose them. It is my hope, and almost a guarantee, that different statements will resonate with you. In the end, this becomes the ultimate beauty of the question, and the answers it produces at any given moment.
