In this video, I talk about how to learn magic. Rather than teaching any specific tricks, think of this as a meta-tutorial for the overarching process of learning magic.

This video was inspired by videos by Jason England ( and Michael Vincent ( — definitely watch them both! The “landscape” of right and wrong answers is an idea I encountered when reading Sam Harris’ book “The Moral Landscape” which is available here: I wanted to provide my recommendations for how to approach learning magic, what books and videos to look for, etc. Of course, my recommendations are influenced by my own personal tastes, and this certainly isn’t the “best” or “only” way to go about learning magic. Hopefully, some of the ideas expressed in the video will be helpful!

The opening sequence is a variation of Triumph by Dai Vernon.
That Triumph ace of spades reveal was effing flawless. I was watching closely and am familiar with at least a couple ways of achieving something similar and I saw nothing. Spotless, sir. Astonishing!
Daniel is excellent at communicating complex ideas. A lot of people sometimes criticize books precisely because some people are not used to dealing with visual yet stationary material whereas the vast majority of magicians of Daniel’s age relied primarily on reading, or watching live performances and askig questions as they grew up in a pre youtube age.
Great video!Will definitely look into each of the names you mentioned.Just curious which magic book would you recommend for someone who wants to perform only self working and mathematical magic?
Hi, Daniel 🙂 Love your opening sequence with the 4 Aces. Could you describe the moves or tell me where I can find them? Thanks in advance
