Mike Powers is more than a thinking man’s magician. He is a retired science teacher, an author, an inventor, a mathematician, a creator, and even a sky-diver. He attends few magic conventions except for those focusing on close-up magic. He is the author of the new book, “Tesseract” and he discusses the use of this title in this week’s podcast.

Mike covers a lot of territory in this week’s episode and we go rather deep into a scientific discussion of what t Tesseract is. He also explains how to perform his “Science Friction” trick with a plastic straw. A lot of territory is covered this week including magic that you are sure to enjoy.

Hail and Farewell

to those in our Magic Community who left us this past year.

Although the list below is not exhaustive, it does reflect the names of many well-known (and some lesser known) magicians, spouses and assistants who passed on in 2021. Some may not be as well-known to you, but they were my personal friends (hey, it is my blog!). If you are unfamiliar with any of these names, then it would behoove you to do a little online search of what these people have contributed to our craft. If you have someone you think was overlooked, then please post the name in the comments below on this blog.

Those whose names are highlighted were featured or interviewed here on The Magic Word Podcast. You can click on their name to revisit and listen to their voices again.
