Surprise! The magic video is uploaded!! No more ‘scary music‘, girls can now watch the video and be amazed without heart attack or check who’s lurking behind you. No more delay – presenting you, Episode 2;
I’m amazed with my own performance too!!! This was one of the acts which I’ve wanted to perform. Glad that I managed to perform for everyone here. The music was provided by my friend, djstoneage. You will get to know more about him and his music through my upcoming videos.
A BIGTHANK YOU to everyone again for supporting me and pushing me to make more magic videos. Without you guys, I won’t be doing this to entertain you. It has always been your great effort, that entertained me. I love to create happiness and stunning surprise, so everyone could have a pleasant time. =)
Hope you enjoyed my new video. That was the first time I performed that (in recording too).

I don’t blame any if any of you think that magicians are psychics or possess wizardry/witchcraft supernatural powers to perform magnificent show. As a magician myself, it’s all about entertainment.. it’s to entertain the audiences. Of course, there are people who would USEmagic, and claim that they are from another planet to save our human race from extinction.
To convince you, they would turn tap water to beer for your Happy Hour, turn pens to cigarettes for you to get high, bend fork and spoon with their mind (uh..) – all sort of things you can witness. But, those were tricks that we magicians know.. our top traded secrets.
Nobody can ever EVER change/stop the time.. literally! Yes! If we could stop the time and still move, we shouldn’t grow old for some reason. Anyway, my point is – I can’t upload the video to YouTube and post it up here by tonight!!!! If only I can change/stop the time like Harry Potter or Heroes.
I’m very impatient too. For the YouTube being so slow to process my video upload to 100%. Wish that I have other alternatives. Not to mention but our local internet connection is really terrible. Correct me if I’m wrong. Here’s the screen shot of the video which you will watch later =)
You will not want to miss this moment..
Come back to check my next video status or follow my twitter updates for more information. You will be amazed by what I did to that poor lil card I had in my hands..
Been waiting for my next video impatiently? Bored of watching the same one over and over again? I’m still editing the new video which will be released VERY SOON~ but you will know when it is uploaded to this site and on YouTube. In case if you want to experience ‘online’ magic, visit this 20Q website here. I used to play with it very much. You should try it out too! It has the ‘ability’ to read your mind within 20 questions!!
Copy and Paste the questions, ‘to impress your friends‘ – by giving them the answer. Of course, if they don’t mind answering you. =)
The next episode involves incredible illusion which was once fooled me. I couldn’t help it but to research on it till I got my answer. It was a genius method of illusion. Difficult to explain but it will be ready soon. Hopefully it won’t take too long to be uploaded on YouTube. And thank you for waiting patiently too. Appreciate it, Love all of you.
Recently, I’ve lost my ring (not magic ring) and couldn’t find it. Resulted to buy new ones. Am I being too choosy to try on the rings for 20mins at the shop? Anyway, I returned there twice to change the ring size a day after. Hehe. Bought two of it. Both are not silver – therefore I don’t need to spend time to polish,wash them from time to time!
Try out the 20Q, it’ll be lots of fun for you. I have to rush the video for all of you tonight. Today will be the last day to edit the video. Will work on the next one, tomorrow..
Thank you – THANK YOU!! I’ve received lots of positive comments, messages and emails from all of you. I’m really very sorry if I took too long to reply as there were too many. It’s my pleasure and honor to have you entertained at my (now) AdrianLeong’s Magic Blog. No new title to be fixed. This is already good enough. Thanks! =) Extremely happy!
Domo arigatou gozaimasu!!
I didn’t sleep on that Friday night. The visitor count to my site was unexpectedly high! This will definitely be my guideline and determination to bring mystical joy and happiness to my readers, fans all around the globe. I’m very excited that I can’t wait to finish the following video edit to publish it by this week as soon as possible!
It’ll be a clearer shot and not so scary music~ There were quite a number of requests made to me. Note that I will put all requests into consideration. Whether or not it will succeed, depends on the reception;
Teach magic via video for free
Use-less horrific music
Host a gathering/lecture
Get a girlfriend (uh.. … must I..?)
Levitate from the ground
I think hosting a small gathering shouldn’t be a problem. But I want to ensure enough people.. otherwise it’ll be boring. TEACH MAGIC – I’ve been thinking about it for a long time. Alright. I’ll try to make a instructional video and post it up here once I done it. It’s my belief that, Anyone can perform magic, Only a master to create one.
Okay okay! No more loitering around. I need to continue my video edit and recording. =)

Yes! The previous video was a demo made by myself, as testing ‘unit’, much stated in the previous post. This video right here was made in a few days time I spent at home. Hope you will enjoy the show and drop me a comment right after, okay? Oh – I’ve removed the 32 minutes of bloopers (laughed at myself during shooting) from it. Enjoy! – Psychokinesis
While you were enjoying the video above, I was hiding the bent,twisted fork and spoon that I used in the video. I hope no one finds it wrapped in a red color plastic bag which I kept inside the shoe box that I’ve placed next to my computer table. If my family found it, I’ll be so dead!!
I’ve cut my hair last week! Felt so much lighter and maybe can do slam dunk if I get to play basketball before my hair gets long again. Here;
So much better than last time right?
Recently – djstoneage have agreed to work with me in the production team to provide better performances and videos. You will like djstoneage’s work when you visit his site here. The problem is, he will only be back in July 2010 – “for good..” he said that. Not only a professional DJ but aa very good magician too!
Still recruiting people into my production team. Interested – drop an email at admin@adrianleong.com
Till when will the next episode to be released? – Secret
Words cannot express how much I felt for all of you who supported me in my videos. Really – all of you are my inspirations and support that kept me going on and on to make magic videos, to perform for you.. even if I can’t make it to do it live for you. Yet, I hope I could still entertain you like I used to be.. =)
The following are the items that I used to perform an extraordinary refined art of psychokinesis in the video;
Unedited - For everyone to have a good look at the items that I will use in my performances.
What did I mean by refined – is that, there’re many magicians around the world. Everyone has their own method of performing the same trick/concept of art but in a different form For instance, everyone has their own way of eating. There’s no similarities and if there’s any.. it’s purely coincidence.
I don’t want to spoil the trick or the amazing effect you will see in the video tomorrow – oppsss, yeah.. the video is done and uploaded to the INTERNET like I expected. I really love to create suspense and build curiosity. Because that’s what that makes the magic – awesome!
Tune in again tomorrow. There’ll be no disappointment. I promise.
I thought that I could blame YouTube for causing me unable to upload my high quality videos (magic) but it was all TM fault!! Do NOT defend them anymore. For most of you who experienced the same issue, glad we’re on the same side. Seriously, why only when my video uploads failed when it passed 50%? No, it wasn’t YouTube, because my internet connection was disconnected!
Can’t do anything about the video so far. Will either record a new video with lower resolution, so the upload will be much faster. Or I will have to upload the videos with different connection this weekend but it’ll be so long until my friends can view it. I’m really sorry to those who has been waiting impatiently.. =(
By the way, yesterday I received a call from uh, (I forgotten the name), asked me if they could interview me on this weekend at their office. I was surprised! Of course!! Not much informations given – other than that I will get paid once the interview is over. =D
Will take more photos and post it up here soon..

P.S: A surprise for everyone is being prepared =)
Updates;
I’ll try again and again until my large capacity video file to be uploaded on YouTube. Once it’s ready, I’ll post it up here. If everything’s fine.. should be able to watch it by tonight or tomorrow. Hehe! Ciao
Can you spot the black figure leaning against the door?
I managed to locate some of the photos I took on Halloween last year (2009), in honor of Harry Houdini’s death anniversary which falls on the same day. As Houdini was a firm believer in Spiritualism, he befriended with Sir Author Conan Doyle (yes, the famous writer for Sherlock Holmes series) who shares the same belief.
Every year, an annual séances will be held on Halloween by Bess Houdini (Harry Houdini’s widow) for 10 years after Houdini’s death. But Houdini never one appeared and Bess said in 1943 that “ten years is long enough to wait for any man”. Still, for us all (magicians) never forget to perform any séances trick, or simple ritual to honor our master of escapologist.
By the way, here’s the photo after I edited it with Auto-Fix feature in Picnik;
It was after sunset, raining heavily outside, and power tripped right after I took the photo
Please Note : I’m not any spiritualist or possess any supernatural powers.
I couldn’t help it but it’s already past now. What can a guy do when he was all by himself at home, raining cats and dogs outside a camera and a confining room which a laptop set still on the table? You’re right.. card staking! Can you imagine that? ME?! A helplessly bored magician would staked playing cards in his room and post about it! Well, it was my first time though..
Yep! A pyramid like shape cards stack
Know why men didn't use cards to build pyramids?
Because there's always a itchy hand that cannot be scratched!
And then to realize how retarded, the person who thought of the idea
I was bored alright! Anyway, I found these cards at the table. Most of them were wore and tore already. Might as well I turn them into fine art. Will use the stacked cards concept in my future videos! Just a little bit more and I can finally release a proper video. This proves that I really need a production team desperately. Sigh..
More updates later tonight!!

P.S: actually.. the photos were in the opposite order *hint*
Got an email reply from a company which distributes a typical footwear brand in Malaysia. You know which it is, cuz’ you can find these shoes being sold everywhere. Here’s the hint; there are 2 brands that have the similar brand. I hope you get it. My proposal of using their brand to include into my future magic project have been reviewed, they like it very much. Great!
Speaking of magic, most of you sent me emails and messages of encouragement. Thank you very much! I’m trying my very best to release another video. Because I’ve been busy with my other projects.. I couldn’t reply to everyone of you. My deepest apology. As I promised before, at least a video a week. It shouldn’t be a problem to me. Hehe.
Eh.. Next month, 27th of May 2010 is Vesak Day. Each yeah round, I will donate my blood at the SJ Buddhist Temple. This year I will make a visit to the orphanage with the fellow Lions (Lions Club members). Been sometime since my last visit. Almost a year now.. missed it.
Better make this year as a comeback for me as a professional magician again. Love you for supporting me and still remembering Adrian Leong as a magician. Appreciate that. In times, it would be great if I can meet all of you again either on stage or off the stage.

P.S: I’m still struggling with audio edit. Hehe! Any nice music to recommend?
